    Permanent SORTING on this forum???

    Is there a way to select how messages are sorted permanently?

    I like to sort messages by "last post date" but the default is "thread title". It would be a lot nicer if it automatically sorted them for me by "last post date" as opposed to having to sort the forum every time I go to it.

    Anyone know?

    The forum displays the last post at the top. I don't know of a way to sort it automatically, other than bookmark the 'las post sort' URL. Saves you at least one click.

    In the Advertising forums is the only place it doesn't automaticly sort by Last Post Time.

    It should be a setting in the setup of the fourms, but since I don't know vB, I couldn't say for sure...

    you go to your profile... and then click edit options and you can choose how to sort threads.....

    its toward the bottom of that page...


    that should make it sort automatically like youre wanting

    but there is no option to view posts sorted by last post date...your only options there are how many posts per page, etc.

    Chicken probably installed the advanced forum props hack which lets you force a sort mode for a forum. So basically you're screwed.

    Hmm....

    For me at least posts ARE sorted by last post. I don't remember ever doing anything extra to get them that way either.
