Question Is it possible to sticky a post within a topic?

The short answer is no. Messages are displayed in chronological order of when they were posted. The order can be oldest message first or newest message first. That's what I wrote in msg #4 of this topic.

If you are not asking whether it's possible to develop a technical solution may I ask you whether it's necessary to know where replyid data is stored? The data is probably stored in the database tables kunena_message; I'm not sure and I didn't check before I posted this message.

If Kunena uses only a chronological order, can you explain me what kind of order is this?



I want to know more about "replyid" cause I'm looking for the fastest way of reaching my aim (changing the first post) from the database!

Thanks

OK, so I obviously made a mistake and I apologise for making a mistake. The picture show the messages sorted in ascending message-id order.

The message ids are, in order, 121885, 121888, 121889.

The message id is assigned when the message is created. This is roughly the same as saying the message id is that same as a chronological "order". This is why I was surprised, when I looked at your picture, to discover that

• #121885 was created 9½ hours ago
• #121888 was "created" 12 hours ago ... :huh: (!)
• #121889 was created 2 hours ago

How did that happen? Did you change something in the database?

Yes, i changed the Time of the second post in the database!
So the only way to reorder the posts is to change their ID, right?

Your guess is as good as mine.

Other discussions that we have had on this topic are:

• Sticky Replies? Move a reply to top of the thread?
• Can't create sticky post
