dorman Posted November 10, 2006 Share #1 Posted November 10, 2006 Advertisement (gone after registration) I enjoy this forum, but I do find it difficult to keep track of which threads I've read, as the sort order is based on the most recent post. So threads which are popular keep re-appearing at the top of list. I would find it easier if the sort order was based on the timing of the originating post, (as happens with the photo.net forums.) Also the number of threads per page is quite low. I would prefer more threads per page and fewer pages, so it's easy to scroll down them quickly. What do others think?

stunsworth Posted November 10, 2006 Share #2 Posted November 10, 2006 I really dislike the Photo.net way of sequencing threads, popular threads just dissapear off the bottom. After saying that, I too would prefer more threads to a page. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
abrewer Posted November 10, 2006 Share #3 Posted November 10, 2006 Hi Geoff. Hi Steve. If you go to the User Control Panel (CP) top left of this page, you can "Edit Options" to display threads in several ways, and set the software to display as many as forty threads per page. Hope that helps. Thanks. Allan Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you go to the User Control Panel (CP) top left of this page, you can "Edit Options" to display threads in several ways, and set the software to display as many as forty threads per page Hi Allan, unless I'm doing something wrong it seems to alter the number of messages to a page when you open a thread - up to 40 as you say, but it doesn't seem to change the number of threads to a page.

abrewer Posted November 10, 2006 Share #5 Posted November 10, 2006 Steve, you are exactly right and I apologize for not trying it myself before I posted. I'll send Andreas a PM and ask him if there's a way to show more threads for you. Thanks. Allan Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
dorman Posted November 11, 2006 Author Share #6 Posted November 11, 2006 At the bottom of each page of threads there is a "Sorted By" drop down list box. Is possible to add a "First Post Time" option to this list, then we'd all be happy. ps I'm quite happy anyway! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
