Default Changing unlock settings on the key fob?

Is there any way to change the unlock settings on the key fob so that the tailgate doesn't unlock on the second push of the button? I frequently need to unlock the driver's door, less frequently need to unlock the passenger doors, and rarely need to unlock the tailgate. I hate to be putting additional wear and tear on both the tailgate latch and the locking mechanism on my rear liftgate of my Leer shell. It would be nice if it would only unlock on a 3rd press of the button. This may not be possible but it would be a nice option.

No, but how are you accidentally triggering the tailgate? Before I changed settings to unlock all doors with one push of the unlock button on fob, I had it set so I needed to do a double press of door unlock button but I have never accidentally triggered the tailgate release, it's 2 buttons lower on my fob at least from the door unlock button

How did you change to unlock all doors with one push? I'm a newbie what can I say.

Thanks

I scrolled through the menu and didn't see anything about single click adjustment the closest was just auto lock and auto unlock. Did I miss something?

That's the whole point of these forums! Everyone here sweats the small stuff! lol.
It's not a big deal, I was just wondering if there was a way to change the settings. Guess not. I won't lose any sleep over it.
