Thread layout

I might be new and it may sound as if I'm complaining - but this is the only forum I've been on where the first post [by date] is last and the latest on is first.

Does any one else find this irritating and difficult to use?

You can change the manner in which it displays in several ways. Firstly just click on the 'view first unread' tag and it will take you to the latest post. Alternatively the little arrow by the posting date will do the same job. You can also switch to 'hybrid mode' which shows the post headings in the order in which they were placed but all in a linear list - just use 'display modes' then choose 'hybrid mode' One can also switch to 'threaded mode' which does a similar job but with only the original displayed.

Finally go to your user CP (control panel) and select 'edit options' then scroll down to nearly the bottom and select 'view oldest first' this will then alter your manner of viewing permanently.
