Default sorting

[dano]

Hello,

A number of the areas here default to different sorting orders.  Rather than by date it's by title or by inverse date.  I have looked in my CP and do not see anything for sort orders so I am thinking this is something in the back end is that correct?

It's defined in the ./config/main.inc.php file

Code Select Expand

// default sort col
$rcmail_config['message_sort_col'] = 'date';

// default sort order
$rcmail_config['message_sort_order'] = 'DESC';

Thanks for the reply Julius but this is in regards to the RC forum here and not RC

I know this is an old thread, but I've found the same problem. It is very annoying, but I would like to add an even more annoying sorting issue: If I choose "Last Post Time", "Descending", "Beginning", it will just go back to whatever it was before. This is the way every other forum I've ever visited sorts their messages by default, so I find it very odd that I can't select it here. The closest I can get is "Thread Start Time", "Descending", "Beginning".
