Title: Sort by date
Post by: Joe200 on May 15, 2014, 07:47:16 PM
I'd love to read what people were writing at various points in bitcoin history. I'd like to see posts from a particular date or range of dates. How can I do this? Currently, topics are sorted by date of latest post, which is not the same.

That would definitely be a good feature, but AFAIK you can't sort by thread creation date with the current forum software...

Why would it be? The result of this (imo) would be a lot of newbies necro-ing old threads since the beginning. Maybe if they were locked or something.

People could easily find old threads even if it is sorted by last reply dates (current setup).
