Forum Sort Suggestion

Thread needs solution

Would it be possible to have each forum sorted with "new" entries at the top (sorted by date), followed by "updated" entries (sorted by date), followed by "the rest" (sorted by date)?

That would help me a lot!

This has been suggest and being worked on.

If you sort the threads by Last reply, the order is pretty much the same as on Wilders. Or am I missing something? A sort as you suggest would reorder the threads after every viewing, which I would find annoying. However, as an option for those that like it that way, I suppose it would be okay.

The sort is a good workaround, this is what I've been using. I just have to rememver to click twice, the first click put the order as oldest to newest.

I could be out in left field but it seems that the forum is based off of code that the Acronis team has created rather than using and existing application they have reinvented the wheel.

Hello all,

Thank you for the discussion. This site (Knowledge Base and Forums) is powered by Drupal. So no wheels were damaged while implementing it.

Thanks.

AndyB - I just looked at the Drupal site and really like how they have implemented the forums - how about duplicating what they have done?

Hey John,

Basically, it is the same... just another visual style. What exactly is the feature/functionality you are looking for? What do you like the most?

We will most probably add some more categorization for Forum threads (taxonomy) like relevant Products, Operating Systems, etc. and then expose them in the Search interface as the filtering facets (like we have them now for Article and Forum topic).
