Thread sorting, Number 1.

[scarlett]

Dear Admin.

Next time you do a rebuild of the system is there any way you could get the threads to display in chronological order?

I know they are dated, timed and slighly greyed out to show unread but it would be nice to have them ordered by time of post.

If it is not possible perhaps a number in a contrasting colour somewhere on each posting as a 'stopgap' measure.

Thanks

Have a look in User Options/Display Preferences. Towards the bottom there's a choice of sorting by creation date or thread which last had a post in it. Does that solve the prob?

I am afraid not.

I did not know I could change things so. I did as you you suggested and it produced pages of threads, in some sort of order but not what I meant.

I want to be able to get a list of topics and when I go to the topic can view all the posts in some sort of chronological order.

Thanks anyway.

PS Please how do I get back to getting a list of topics in date order?!

OK, explain exactly what you meant, as what you asked for, is what Simon described. You can reset by going back to same place, and resetting to original way of viewing. You can also read threads in flat or threaded mode etc, there are many ways of viewing posts here

Thanks Simon and Brendan.

Now I am refreshed I have tried some more settings and found a way of getting near my first thoughts and maybe even better.

Thanks again.
