Sorting of posts in a forum

[wimvincken]

I saw several posts about changing the order of the posts in a forum.

The moderator (forgot who it was) claimed that it was not possible.

Well, with phpBB3 it is possible to change the order of the posts in a forum, but only by the user (in their profile) and when the user looks at a forum. You (the admin) only need to switch on that functionality, that is all.

You might think 'who cares to change the order', but it is very important for many potential forum creators like my self. A forum is perfect for presenting stories, images, etc. and the ability to change the sort is required.

It's reasonings like this that make this job hard

1. I can't do anything
2. Forumotion's phpBB3 isn't the same at all from the original phpBB3, so we don't just "turn it on"

3. Please add a poll with options yes and no
4. Please don't go for me again, afterwhich I would have to give an official warning

Sorting of posts is very important to me, as I have an applications procedure for certain special access areas. I would like to be able to count the amount of appropriate posts without accidentily adding/skipping a good quality post/bad quality post.

I vote yes.
