Okay, sorry for the over-reaction---I misunderstood the "drop off after 100 days" bit (I thought this meant they were dropped from the database) and I managed to get the sorting feature back and working (it wasn't functioning on my end) so that all posts appear on the site. Now, where do I change the settings for these sorting details? Can they be changed?
Edit: Found it in modules/newbb/viewforum.php, around lines 153-164 (fixes are shown in
red:
// assign to template
$xoopsTpl->assign('forum_selection_order', $forum_selection_order);
$sortsince = !empty($HTTP_GET_VARS['sortsince']) ? intval($HTTP_GET_VARS['sortsince']) : 365; [color=FF0000]<---CHANGED THIS DEFAULT DISPLAY FROM 100 to 365[/color]
$sel_since_array = array(1, 3, 7, 14, 30, 60, 90, 180); [color=FF0000]<---CHANGED THESE TO SUIT OUR SITE[/color]
$forum_selection_since = '<select name="sortsince">';
foreach ($sel_since_array as $sort_since_v) {
$forum_selection_since .= '<option value="'.$sort_since_v.'"'.(($sortsince == $sort_since_v) ? ' selected="selected"' : '').'>'.sprintf(_MD_FROMLASTDAYS,$sort_since_v).'</option>';
}
$forum_selection_since .= '<option value="365"'.(($sortsince == 365) ? ' selected="selected"' : '').'>'.sprintf(_MD_THELASTYEAR,365).'</option>';
$forum_selection_since .= '<option value="1000"'.(($sortsince == 1000) ? ' selected="selected"' : '').'>'.sprintf(_MD_BEGINNING,1000).'</option>';
$forum_selection_since .= '</select>';
A big thank you to everyone who pointed me in the right direction here. Please excue my over-reaction to the situation but seriously, this really threw me when it happened...all's well. Thanks again.
