This forum drives me crazy - why aren't the threads sorted by last post?
 | View Full Version : Sort threads by last post! SoftWareRevue 09-12-2002, 04:01 PM It's only the advertising forums that are sorted by the thread start date. It's a good thing. ;) RandyL712 09-12-2002, 04:03 PM Okay, I see your point. If they weren't, they'd be bumping their threads to the top all the time. gotcha SoftWareRevue 09-12-2002, 04:31 PM That is precisely what caused the change. :) conceptual 09-12-2002, 06:53 PM It can be bad when you have a contest that lasts a couple of weeks and have to go to page search and go to page 5 every time. ckpeter 09-12-2002, 07:59 PM In that case, you can post a link to another discussion site/area. People can discuss all they want in that place.

Chicken 09-12-2002, 08:30 PM Yes the forum isn't really designed for long-term contests. It works much better for short promotions, which is how we'd like it to work (which is why you have to wait at least 5 days to post another ad). This way the offers listed are fresh and current. ckpeter 09-12-2002, 10:00 PM Originally posted by SoftWareRevue Well, it wouldn't be another area of WHT. Not sure what you're saying. What I meant to say was that they could post a link to their contest page, hosted on their servers. Peter |
