To be able to change the sort for certain boards

[wimvincken]

I prepare a forum for community and as a place for reference of fanfiction stories all over the Internet. For the last I need the possibility to change the sorting.

For example, like to change the sorting to title, creation, updated, user, etc. ASC or DESC.

I saw this on certain forum software, but here I can't find that functionality.

If possible, to define the initial sorting in the properties of the threads and that it's possible to change it by users (guests, members, staff).

I'm afraid the sorting of threads is not possible.

Plugins can only work with what they can see on the current page, and as threads can span several pages, the threads that canot be seen cannot be sorted.

In this particular case, the sorting of threads within a board is still possible through query parameters but the sorting was simplified in preparation for V6 so now we are left with only four variations.

All other sorting orders have been disabled except the following:

example 1 (oldest started thread first)
example 2 (newest started thread first)
example 3 (oldest last post first)
example 4 (newest last post first) [default]

The plugin is editable so if you still wish to use it in its much less powerful state then those changes can be made by yourself or by me although I no longer see much benefit unless you are wanting one of the other orders to be the default when viewing a particular board.

We also have additional filtering options in the recently fixed autosearch feature
