Multiple page posts show oldest first
Quote from nemo on November 26, 2019, 9:24 pmOn mine, it does, anyway.
I have asked about this before but cannot seem to find the topic, so here goes again.
As my forum shows newest posts first as the default, when it runs over into more pages it defaults to oldest first. this is OK for those of us who know, but for the unwary, probably miss out on the latest page unless the wake up to the situation.
I recall you said you might be able to fix it with a later update, but so far it remains the same.

Yes, I remember this topic. You changed the ordering by using some custom-filter for it. The main problem is, that it gets only applied to the topic-view. There are a lot of other functions which need database-query-changes to represent this change, including search, unread-status, last-post, widgets, etc. This means, basically tons of modifications are required to make this work for everything. Currently there is no easy filter or way available to change this because it requires a complete rework of the existing content-generation-logic.
