    How can I change the order posts are displayed so that the new posts in a thread show up before older posts?

    If possible this would be a setting ion your Profile. Look in there. I do not recall seeing such a setting.

    I could not find it there.
    I cannot believe this is the only forum where you cannot set the order preference.

    I can't either. Especially since I know several forums where it cannot be done.

    Profile/settings/topic and thread/ post read order

    Choose oldest first, last unread first, or latest post first

    Edit: I appreciate that this doesn't exactly do what you want, but it does allow you to choose what you see first, so nearly....

    I cannot find a settings option on my profile page.
    If I go to Personal Details there are settings options but not an option for "topic and threads".
    I must be having troubles navigating to get to where I need to be.

    I think those are if you are using Tapatalk to follow the fora. There are no XenFora settings which allow members to change the sort order within a thread (that I have been able to find)

    Hmm - good shout. I am indeed viewing through tapatalk. Hadn't realised the difference between that and the big screen software.
