I have searched and was unable to find anything.

My forum posts expire and I have not idea how to stop this from ahppening.

????

How can I show all the forum posts all the time. If one topic is quiet for a while all the posts dissappear.

What can I do to fix this? Where do I go???

Thank you

OK

So I have been reading and searching, searching and reading.

It is the sort methods at the bottom of the forum that are the problem for me.

How can I default them to show all posts rather than the ones over the last 100 days. OK I need to improve my traffic. But I have honestly not run into this on any other forum and there is no option in the admin panel to control this.

I have RTFM and I see no mention of how to do this. Forum searches, nothing.

Please please please

OK you were posting your response as I was posting mine.

Seriously?

This can not be changed?

Hows that?

Under Administration Menu, click on Forums module. Under Prune, you can set how long for a dead topic to expire. It works for NewBB 2.0.

still i dont understand your problem is sorted by "From last 100 days" or something else?
sorted by function in newbb1 is not change in newbb2 and in each one you have this problem.
look at this:
ability to change "sorted by" option in forum view

No, You got it irmtfan.

My problem is that I want to change the default of "From last 100 days" to "From the Beginning".

I was unable to do this from any admin panel and you were nice enough to point out that it can not be found in the admin panels.

I would like "From the beginning" to be the default for all my forums.

Thank you very much.

Darn nobody else has any ideas? There is not a template file or DB field I can edit to set this?

There has gotta be some way to change the default behaviour?

Thanks All
