View forum post by topic, sorted by last response date?

[John Rofrano]

That’s not one of the options 🙁 but I agree it would be nice if threads would bubble to the top when a new post is added.

[jerry norman] “Is there a way to view posts here by topic, but sorted by last response date (newest on top)? Similar to the way you can view SCS Vegas forum posts?”

At present, there is no such option in this site that follows exactly the method that you point to.

But you CAN date sort right now, by selecting “Sort By Date” in the pulldown menu that is seen just below the host pictures on this forum.

We have been at this for 15 years now, 10 as Creative COW, and our community raised total hell with us when we tried to switch to a topical view system. We quickly reset the default to threaded, but you can use a topical interface or the date sort — we support all three.

For those who prefer other systems, that is one of the reasons that so many different systems exist.

We must have some fans, as we now get over 2 million visitors a month and are bigger than any of our competitors — so we must be doing at least something right.

And no, we don’t plan on changing systems. We roll our own, thank you.

Have fun.

Better is to dare mighty things, to win glorious triumphs, even though checkered by failure than to rank with the poor spirits who neither enjoy much, nor suffer much because they live in a gray twilight that knows no victory or defeat. – Theodore Roosevelt
