#4390, "Haven't used this forum in a long time and need help with settings."


  

          

If I list by all topics, it starts with posts from years ago and then so on.

How can I view topics by recent activity?

Thanks

You should be able to click on "Last updated date" at the top unless something really funky is going on. Maybe you accidentally sorted it by something other than date.

I can mark posts, but it doesn't sort them. So if someone comments on a post two weeks old I have to scroll through a page or two to find it right now.

If I show posts from all dates, it shows the first post from years ago then so on. Not sure what I did but it sucks.

Near the top of any of the forum screens, you should have lines similar to the following.

Show all folders | Collapse topics | Linear discussion mode disabled | Subscribe to this forum | Listing all available topics

Topics in this discussion: Sorted by last modified date

ID Discussion topic Author Last updated date Views

(Messages from here down)

The above is copy/pasted from mine, which you see it says it's "Sorted by last modified date". The headings of ID, Discussion topic, Author, etc top the list of my messages, and if you click on any of those, the forum will attempt to sort by that. I've randomly clicked on "ID" or such before, and got totally lost. Last modified is about the best one I ever had.

I had to have randomly clicked something the other day, but this helped, thanks.
