Group discussion order

11 years 5 days ago
Licenses:
JomSocial Active iSEO Active Socialize Active

Browser: Firefox, Safari, Chrome (newest)
User-Level: Registered, Admin, Super Admin
Joomla-Version: 2.5.19
Template: yoo_avenue, yoo_digit, yoo_cloud.... no differences in behavour
PHP 5.3.3
+++++

When starting a group discussion, the first article stays on the top. The following answers (I call them articles) to the discussion have the order "newest first". In Fact the order from the first until the last article would be as follows with an excample of 5 answers:

Article 1 (Discussion start)
Article 6 (last answer)
Article 5 (..)
Article 4 (..)
Article 3 (..)
Article 2 (first answer)

This is really confusing when newer members start to read former discussions. It would be more logic to have a order like that:

Article 1 (Discussion start)
Article 2 (first answer)
Article 3 (..)
Article 4 (..)
Article 5 (..)
Article 6 (last answer)
Article n (answer n)

This order is needed all over the groups we use.

How can I realise that? I do not find any settings all over the JomSocial configuration. The order feature is one of the first features from J1.0 - so this is something that should be available in JS, too.

Thanks for you help!

Hi Alex,

if you want make discussion reply show from oldest to latest when a user view on discussion page, you can change our code on com_community / libraries / wall.php on line 203 or search "special discussion" and below on "special discussion" changed

$order = 'DESC';

into
$order = 'ASC';

but this is only when user view discussion.. if someone reply on that discussion, the new reply still appear on first order except the user refresh discussion page..

Warm regards,

David

Thank you!

When I change this, every update will reset my settings, right?
Maybe this would be a nice new user setting that will be saved in database.
