Something like ih this picture:



Thanks in advance.

Buuuuummmppp!

Hello smejker,

A solution for what? As far as i can see from the image you provided you have them sorted out by Topic's title by alphabetic order. If you want the subforums to be sorted by Topic's post's date then you should edit the "Sort topics by" field and select the type you want them to be sorted.

I would like to sort topics by subforum, not from the administrative panel... and members will be able to sort them as how they want...

I hope that now you understend me...

Regards & Respect!

So you want to add the sort by function in the topic list page. Ok. Let me test it and i will inform you as soon as / if i find a solution.

OK, Thanks MrMind,

I hope you'll succseed!

Respect!

It is very easy to add it in your forum but you will need a javascript to make it work. (I think)
As you can see in the image below i added the function in the topic list but it wont work.

I see...
Explain me how to do it , but please step by step...
Thanks!

It is not working. It is just there but it doesn't do anything.
You will have to wait for someone who knows javascript coding to help you with this. I am not that good at javascript.
Btw, if you want to add it with no effect then simply follow the below:
Go to Admin Panel >> Display >> Templates >> General >> topics_list_box
and press the edit icon ( ).
Find:

Code:

<!-- END multi_selection -->

and after that code and to a new line add the below code:

Code:

<dl><dt><span class="gen">Sort topics by&nbsp;:</span></dt><dd><span class="gen">&nbsp;<select name="order_topics"><option selected="selected" value="1">Topic's post's date (most recent in first)</option><option value="2">Topic's post's date (most oldest in first)</option><option value="3">Topic's creation date (most recent in first)</option><option value="4">Topic's creation date (most oldest in first)</option><option value="5">Topic's title (alphabetical order: A-Z)</option><option value="6">Topic's title (reversed alphabetical order: Z-A)</option><option value="7">Number of views (the most consulted in first)</option><option value="8">Number of views (the least consulted in first)</option><option value="9">Number of answers (most popular in first)</option><option value="10">Number of answers (least popular in first)</option></select></span></dd></dl>
<div class="div_btns"><input type="submit" name="update" value="Save" class="icon_ok" /></div>

Click and the press publish ( ).

Thanks MrMind,
I'll be weiting...
Maybe someone know and will help me!

Someone for sure will know how to make it work! Lets hope that person has the time to do it!

Probably someone who knows javascript coding will help me with this.

But... nothing... I still hope for a solution...

the amount of javascript it would take someone a week to write it from scratch .. but i will search google and see if i can find some code to patch together...your forum version is phpbb3 correct?

I search everywhere... but I can't find solution of this, and I thought it is easy...

Correctly... My forum is phpBB3.

Regards & Respect!
