You can also go to the forum (Main, Pictures, etc.) and scroll down to near the bottom of the page. There is an option there for thread display options. You can select "Thread Start Time" instead of "Last Post Time" and then the newest threads will be displayed in order of start time. Don't forget to select "Show Threads" over to the right of the selection to actually make the change.

Unfortunately this setting seems to get lost when you leave that forum, so you have to keep resetting it.

[h=4]Thread Display Options[/h]<form id="forum_display_options" class="forum_info_form blockbody formcontrols floatcontainer" method="get" action="http://www.quiltingboard.com/forumdisplay.php"><input name="s" value="" type="hidden"><input name="f" value="1" type="hidden"><input name="page" value="1" type="hidden"><input name="pp" value="20" type="hidden"><label for="sel_daysprune">Show threads from the...</label>Use this control to limit the display of threads to those newer than the specified time frame.

<label for="sel_sort">Sort threads by:</label>Allows you to choose the data by which the thread list will be sorted.

Order threads in...
  • <label for="radio_asc"><input id="radio_asc" name="order" value="asc" type="radio"> Ascending Order</label>
  • <label for="radio_dsc"><input id="radio_dsc" name="order" value="desc" type="radio"> Descending Order</label>
Note: when sorting by date, 'descending order' will show the newest results first.


<input class="button" value="Show Threads" type="submit">


</form>
