@BaraBajen – What version of bbPress are you using?

Are you using the plugin version for WordPress, or did you install it as a stand-alone piece of software?

It would take a small plugin to piggy-back on top of bbPress. It would hook into the ‘bbp_has_replies_query’ filter, and switch the ‘order’ argument from ‘ASC’ to ‘DESC’.

Or, you can drop something like this in your functions.php file. (Note: Not tested, so this code might not actually work.)

function bbp_reverse_reply_order( $query = array() ) {



// Bail if no query

if ( empty( $query ) ) return;



// Change the order

$query = 'DESC';



// Return the adjusted query

return $query;

}

add_filter( 'bbp_has_replies_query', 'bbp_reverse_reply_order' );

Anything is possible, but that’s plugin territory.

To whomever wonders how to switch the order of replies. This filter actually works well, just the code needs to be modified to change the array value in $query[‘order’].

function bbp_reverse_reply_order( $query = array() ) {
    $query['order']='DESC';
    return $query;
}
add_fiter('bbp_has_replies_query','bbp_reverse_reply_order');

Hope, it helps someone.

@Tapirk You need to create a new custom plugin and then paste the function into it. The easiest way to create a new custom plugin is to use Pluginception.
