Hello, I’m pretty new at this.

But I have searched a lot for how to get posts in a thread, that is listed, in reverse order. I want the most recent posts in a thread to be displayed first and the oldest, date, will be at the bottom of the page.

Please help me!

I can’t believe no-one else is screaming about this.

Forums should display topics most-recent-first, the way the Activity Stream does.

Is there a fix for this?

would love to be able to sort forum topics by:

Topic

Voices

Posts

Freshness

is this possible – would it require a plugin?

Bump!

I know this would create another DB call, but surely this option should be a no brainer for the users. this appears to be a un-popular issue for users..

is bbpress not listening or addressing this request?

Here this plugin does exactly what you all looking for

@sandyrig was hoping for sorting a topic not replies

I guess bbPress developers have so much stuff in their hands. Been searching for solutions for days but still no luck. I find this software a bit constrained.

Has anybody tried muut?

Using the most recent version, able to order topics by latest posted topic and not by latest topic activity

bbpress>includes>topics>template : (line)154

I didn’t remove it but commented it as I don’t know what to replace with the _bbp_last_active_time to achieve ordering by the latest posted topic.
