Is there a way that the forum can be displayed on a date / time basis? That is threads listed, regardless of the topic, in order of their last posting? Most recent at the top.
I have looked over the site but can't find a way to configure this way so can someone help an old geezer out here! : ;)

On the bottom of my screen skin is a section called, Living In The Philippines Forum - Info Center, under Forum Stats click on View the most recent posts on the forum.

I just go up to the upper left hand corner of the page next to my name and click on "Show unread posts since your last visit".....that reasonably keeps me up to date on all posts as they have been posted since my "last" visit...
Meeting the right person as your partner in life that laughs at your farts.... is a blessing!

Ray, that is what I do also but I am normally on all day.  So not many to review at any given time.  The way I indicated earlier will show the latest post in chronological order for all topics without having to click on each topic/post.

Click on "Profile", then click "Modify Profile - Look and Layout". Scroll down through the selections and check the box marked "Show most recent posts at the top".

While in that section, check the other boxes as you wish. I personally have checked "Show Board Descriptions Inside Boards", "Show child boards on every page inside boards, not just the first" and " Return to topics after posting by default".

You also have some drop down menus for "Topics to display per page", "Messages to display per page", "Use quick reply on topic display".

Hope this helps
