Hi all,

G'day, mitchmink, and welcome to Kunena.

First of all, we like to remind all our users that they can probably save themselves time if they familiarise themselves with a few general guidelines that are summarised in K 1.5.x Support: Please read this first . It saves you time if you provide some basic information about your installation and it save us time asking for it. So, let's start with the basics:

What version of Kunena are you using and what Kunena template are you using?

I don't quite understand the first problem you are having but, after you provide the information I've asked for, we can look deeper into it.

"First-post-first" vs "last-post-first" is, as you know, a user preference that is settable on a per-user basis. I am a strong believer in allowing users as much control over their own preferences instead of imposing my ideas on how they should operate the forum. You know how to change the preference for you (so there's no problem there) what's the problem that you are having?

By default, Kunena sets the preference to first-post-first (and users can change it around the other way, if they like). There is no "universal setting" to apply an alternative preference to all users in K 1.5.x (and I think that is a good thing, too!) nor is there a setting in K 1.6. The short answer is that the development team has given this matter a great deal of thought and they have decided that the status quo should remain - each user can choose the order that messages appear (either the first post first, and later posts in increasing chronological sequence, or the most recent post first, and earlier posts in decreasing chronological sequence).

first of all sorry for the post without the requested information.

My joomla version = 1.5.15
My kunena version = 1.5.9
Kunena template = grey

"First-post-first" vs "last-post-first" is, as you know, a user preference that is settable on a per-user basis. I am a strong believer in allowing users as much control over their own preferences instead of imposing my ideas on how they should operate the forum. You know how to change the preference for you (so there's no problem there) what's the problem that you are having?

When a user select the option in his kunena user profile (last posts first) it doesn't work. It still showing it the normal way.

I don't quite understand the first problem you are having but, after you provide the information I've asked for, we can look deeper into it.

I will explain it better: I cant navigate trough the pages from the posts. It is showing me page 2 and i can't go to page 1. here is a screenshot. [img]C:\Profiles\mmi001ab\Desktop\forum-error.png[/img]

I don't know anything about a "grey" template (default_gray, perhaps? :unsure: ) but it sounds like it's the template that causing all your problems (see There is only one endorsed and supported Kunena template ... default_ex for more information about the default_gray template). I know for a fact that the default_gray template clobbers page navigation/pagination dishonours the last-post-first preference.

Secondly, you should, as soon as possible, upgrade to K 1.5.11 because it fixes 30+ known problems with K 1.5.9.

There you go: two good tips for the price of one! :laugh:

Please confirm that it was default_gray template that you were using. If it is, get rid of it, use default_ex, familiarise yourself with the "sticky" messages in the Support category, and you won't have any more problems. ;)

I have no idea what this "grey" Kunena template is, who designed it, or what version of Kunena it was created for. I am pleased that you have upgraded to K 1.5.11. Your pagination issue and user preference issue will disappear if you use the default_ex template. What have you got to lose? :)

Then use firebug fro firefox and modify the COLORS of the default template to match your site :) as long as you use the file from K1.5.11 and your sensible with what you change there should not be to many issues.

The current templates have the code built into it Mitch, so if you upgrade to the latest build of Kunena but still use that older template you are pretty much still using a older version of Kunena.

I would recommend using the default_ex and do what Cerb said and modify the default_ex template.
