How do I get the newest posts to display first?
 

just joined and enjoy threads. BUT they seem to be going backwards and 1st page is last and vise versa? am I doing something wrong here?

Welcome; we are glad you joined us. :hi: You can fix this problem by configuring your control panel. ;)

Sorry to go off topic .
Spud help me reconfigure the control panel. I can't seem to figure it out.
Any quick tips to make this deal roll forward and 1st page first in proper consecutive order?
This is maddening!

At the top of every webpage, immediately under the banner, there is a grey bar populated with links in white letters. The leftmost link is 'UserCP.' Click on that link to access your user control panel.

At the left side of your control panel you will see a column of different categories you can configure. Look under the "Settings and Options" category, and click on the link titled "Edit Options."

The next page has 5 subheadings. Scroll to the third subheading, about halfway down the page, entitiled "Thread Display Options." This category includes 4 boxes. Go to the second box entitled "Thread Display Mode." Click the drop down box, and choose the option "Linear - Oldest First."

Scroll down to the bottom of the page and click on the box entitled "Save Changes."

Now you can exit your user control panel, and the threads should be displayed in the manner you choose.
