Feature request: sort TRs by most recent reply

I saw that by clicking "replies" you can see the most recent posts in the TRs.
Would it be possible to sort the TRs based on most recent reply? This could be useful.

Thanks

Thanks for the suggestion, kamtron. It's on the list. For now, the "Replies" section kinda takes care of that.

One thought I'm toying with is to allow the user to choose from one of three options for ordering the TR's:
  1. Latest submitted TR (the current option)
  2. Latest reply (that's how the old forum worked so I understand why folks would want it; though many would want #1, too, as not everyone cares about the chatter, but rather about the newest TR's themselves)
  3. Latest TR date
Problem with that is that it would add yet another drop-down to the TR filter section. Anyway, I'll see what I can do.

I've noticed that if a new TR is posted, it isn't included in the "Newest replies" button (presumably since a new TR isn't a reply). Makes having a sort by posting date even more useful.

At the moment, it actually looks like it sorts by date associated with the TR, not the date it was posted.

Kamtron, the TR page sorts by date/time submitted. Please see more info here

Hi Pavel,
This would be great. I think my default preference would be to "sort TRs by newest reply". It's kind of nice for keeping tracks of threads that are still alive versus dormant.

Hello again! I've now implemented a way for folks to sort by TR submission (default), TR date or the latest reply. Will try to implement an enhancement in the future where one can choose their default behavior, but in the meantime - hopefully this helps : )
