Hi There

Apologies if this has been mentioned before but...

Would it be possible to default the project news stickies to newest post first? There are several threads asking about project status and this may make the information easier to find for people who aren't familiar with this type of site.

I've got all news threads and others worthy of attention as stickies on the top of the forums. However, it's possible for the user to stop these from being sticky, by using the Don't move sticky posts to top option in preferences.

How other projects use their stickies is up to them and their moderators.

The two mostly updated threads, one about CPDN news and one about general project (outage) news can be found in the Projects forum. They're updated by users, as and when they find information about these projects.

Hi Jord

Thanks for the reply, I'd spotted that but didn't comprehend as I'm a bit vacant at times.

I'm learning my way one mistake at a time!
