I am trying (unsuccessfully) to change the default settings of the new forum so that the original topics that are listed in the 'Title' column are displayed in latest date order. It's easier, at a glance, to see any new messages that are relevant to me. The default setting appears to display these original messages in the order of the most recent replies received by the forum.

We have set this Forum up to mirror our old Message Board wherever it was practical and sensible to do so. This means that Topics are displayed in last post order, rather than the order in which the Topics were created. However, on this new Forum there are a number of options/settings that you can use to personalise how and what order things are displayed in for you as an individual. Emails can also be automatically sent when postings are made to Topics you are interested in etc.

To control the display options click on the downward pointing arrow head next to the Welcome message, at the right hand side of the dark red bar across the top of the page. Then click on Control Panel followed by the "Board preferences" tab, select "Edit display preferences". Change the settings as required, scroll to the bottom of the list and click Submit.

You can bookmark or subscribe to Topics which will inform you when they are changed or added to, . Using the "eye" icon or "star" icon that appear on top, right hand side of each Topic. If you want to know more about these facilities click on the downward pointing arrow head next to "Forum", at the left hand side of the dark red bar across the top of the page and then select "FAQ".
