Hi folksadoodles, You may have noticed a few changes taking place with the forum layout. No one's threads or posts were deleted, just moved. Everything from writing craft, erotica, and the off topic forum are now here in general questions, so that there are fewer sub-boards to peruse. The service experiences threads are now a sub-board of the services forum, and the name and shame forum is still there, and still private for members. Then I added one new board for writing critiques. It's also a members only board. But general and services are still public. So we're half-and-half now. More compact, but spread out a little. Hope everyone likes the changes!  |

Girl, you have been busy! I think the changes are an improvement, and I'm sure it will be easier for folks to find stuff and participate.

Is there an option to see most recent posts first?

Well, anything that's new has a "new" next to it, and those are always at the top of every board page. I don't believe there's a way to see "all new on all boards though" you'll have to scroll down and look to see if there's a new on the others. At least that's how it works on the computer. I hate the mobile app so never use it.

Most forum software (SMF, phpBB etc) has the option. Simply means that each thread shows in reverse order, which I find easier. Even Kboards has it and I wouldn't describe that as an advanced design.
Options to see all new posts as a single sequence can be very helpful with frequently visited forums.
I couldn't see it as an option in the account settings and don't know whether it's an optional feature in ProBoards or not since I've never used it.
Agree with your comments about mobile. AFAICS forum software optimised for mobile tends to be feature light.

It does sound useful though. |

Is it intended that the forum hierarchy goes
Indieauthorhaven>Indie Author Have before General Discussions etc?

If you go to the Home page, you will see that the first section is called Indie Author Have
I was just wondering whether this was deliberate or a missing n
