    Help for thread view options

    The new forum looks great. I am struggling however with a couple of things: I did try looking in the FAQ section but didn't see what I was looking for.

    >>I like using the hybrid viewing mode where an indented listing appears showing the posts to a thread by title only, but very quickly in a thread it just says "more replies below current depth...". How can it get it to show all posts like the old forum so I can go right to the latest posts without having to repeatedly click on the "more replies below...." line?

    >>How do I get the lists of posts to reverse the sort order and show newest posts at the top (in both hybrid and linear mode)? The FAQs imply that is an option but doesn't say how to do it.

    >>Is there a shortcut to jump to the last post in a thread?

    >>Is there a way to get the linear thread list to show more or all of the posts in a thread without having to go to the next page? I have my options set at 40 to a page.

    Thanks! It looks great!

    In you User Profile->Edit Options you can change the default Display Mode and the Number of Posts per Page. Is this what you are looking for?

      You can only do this in the linear mode by selecting the acsending or descending linear mode in the User Profile -> Edit Options section...

        If you click the little > icon next to a thread (where the lasted post is stated) you can open that post right away...

          I believe 40 per page is the maximum...
