Our team wants more agency regarding how replies in threads are displayed. We currently cannot change it. That said, we have requested changes, but they will take time. I posted about this previously, from my perspective, the ideal state should look something like this:
- For our team: Global setting to set a default.
- For our team: Ability to configure an override at board level (e.g. to account for different use cases)
- For forum members: User-profile setting to set their own preference (e.g. Use default, oldest first, newest first, by likes)
- In thread: To change it on the fly without affecting your default settings.
EA_NilsDoes this mean that options for adding page numbers or jumping to (or otherwise indicating) unread posts are not currently being considered? I'm trying to understand what the plan is for long threads. Should we just avoid making them?
I understand your post as saying that your ideal is not very different from what we already have and involves just changing the default sorting for some threads/boards and giving users global and local overrides.
