Discussion Boards
« on: November 18, 2015, 12:40:29 PM »
I know this isn't a KF question but does relate to KFO member discussion boards, does anyone know why when you want to read a topic, the oldest one is listed last ? Is there a way to change this on my end? It makes more sense to me to be more like a e mail program showing the latest reply first, the way it is set up now for some topics you have to scroll thru 4 or more pages to see the latest response or addition, (I know there is a way to get to the last page and I use it), seems like the topic could remain at the top of the thread and the latest replies follow underneath going back in time.

I do believe the sequence is Newest on top when you have logged in to the Discussion Board.

If you do not log in the Oldest is on top when you view the Discussion Board.

You can also type in your topic in the search box and the board will pull all of the relevant replies.

Jim, for example, go to the home page, then select general discussion, select " New look for circle KF", you will see the original message from 11/19 14 first , as it should be so we know the topic, then there are 4 pages,  at the end of the last page is the latest reply dated 11/17/15, to me that seems backward, the latest reply should be right below the topic like a e mail. And yes I know there is a search box gordie, thank you.
