But I don't understand that we are LOCKED IN to having the forum 'DEFAULT' to newest first ordering.... something that is COMPLETELY OPPOSITE to what most forums are structured. I understand that users can change their configuration themselves, and I think that's great... but why do I have to force all my users to change the forum to a STANDARD and TYPICAL view? Why am I as an administrator do NOT have that global option?

As I can see with all your 'merging' of this topic that I am not alone on this opinion. As it is configurable for an end-user, how much harder must it be to make it an option for the administrator? Why make it such a run-around?

Guess I will try that hack by LeFunk and see if it works...
Just my two cents... :unsure:

K... the hack by LeFunk does NOT work... especially since his hack is for a version prior to 1.6.4
The lines pertaining to this would start on line 339 in the same file (view.php).

Code:

if ($this->myprofile->ordering != '0') {
			$this->ordering = $this->myprofile->ordering == '1' ? 'DESC' : 'ASC';
		} else {
			$this->ordering = $this->config->default_sort == 'asc' ? 'ASC' : 'DESC'; // Just to make sure only valid options make it
		}

but I cannot make it so that it will show as default descending. changing the default_sort to 'desc' does NOT change the settings... especially to new users.

I sure hope that the developers have taken this extreme oversight and made the appropriate amendments for version 2.0

People (users) HATE the whole 'forced to opt out' situation. I would really like to make things straight forward for them.
:whistle:

You are not locked-in to using the last-post-first ordering. Do you see that here (at www.kunena.org )? If you don't see it here at this website then you know you are not locked-in to anything and that kind of destroys the argument, doesn't it?

I'm using 1.6.5 - Posts are ordered currently on my site as newest first - where is the setting for changing this to oldest first? Haven't been able to find an answer in the wiki...

Thanks,
Andrew
