Order of posts in some forums?

I am just trying to find out if I am doing something wrong?

Several of the threads I go to appear to have the latest threads on the bottom. But some appear with the latest at the top. Is there something in my settings that I can tweak to cause all latest threads to be at the top. I know that if a reply is made that posting will be moved but, for instance, I went on the wakey wakey thread and the latest postings were all at the bottom. Perhaps there is a reason for this, I dont know. But if I can alter my settings I would find it easier.

Thanks

Nigel

 

If it's threads on a forum board such as 'Edible Gardening', click on 'Start Date' or 'Last Message' on the left/right hand side of the green menu bar to reverse the date order in which they are displayed:

'Start Date' reverses the threads by the date they were started.

'Last Message' reverses the threads by date of last post in thread. .

 

The reason the latest posts are at the bottom is because when you return to a thread it automatically goes to the post that's the next one, after the last one you read. If you alter this you won't have that option.
