Hopefully, this is the proper subforum to ask this question. I would like to know if there is a faster way to sort postings to most recent versus clicking through the arrows. Is there a way to set most recent post as the default as well?

Thanks

In "classic", the posts are the most recent.

How do you switch back to the classic setting?

There is a little drop down menu, I think it's in the upper right hand corner, at the bottom of it, the very last option is "classic", just tap it and your screen changes to the classic version. Any topic you click on then, will bring up the very last post to it and in addition, you have all the latest topics posted too listed on the right hand side of the page. If I knew how to post pics with my iPad, I'd be able to show you easier, but hopefully this was good enough.

Well, Jimmy, once again you've got me looking .... I think what you're talking about is this:

Now the odd thing is that I see that in only one part of the forum, the rest of the forum shows me:

Since I run an ad-blocking program on my browser, my first though was that *it* was blocking that selection so I turned it off.  Nope, still no sort option.
Then I took a run through the profile options to see if there was something there that would turn it off, Nope, none that I see.
Then, since you mention a "classic" option I went looking for that and couldn't find it.
This all suggests that different people are seeing different views of the forum - obviously the mobile version will be significantly different, but I didn't expect something that is pretty basic would be that different on the "desk top" version.

Could I get some comments please?  Like what browser are various people using and is the "sort block" there or not?  
The only other browser I have on this laptop is "Edge" (which is really slow!) and does *not* display the sort block.
Odd ......

ETA: Curiosity got the better of me, I have Chrome and IE 11<?> on my tower, so I switched over there for a few minutes.  I still don't see the sort block, in either browser.

Hey Al, I'm actually not certain I answered the OP's question, I can only go by my own experience since I use my iPhone to access the site during the day, my iPad any other time, and my laptop pretty much just to post pics. The way the OP's question was understood by me, is how the site is when I use it from my iPhone. When I come on here, it's a totally different screen than what you have pictured (your pics ARE the "classic" version) my experience is...with the screen I get on my iPhone, it shows all the topics in a line, and if I tap, for instance, "scrapbooks", it takes me from the very first page of said scrapbook and in cases like my own, where there's like 50+ pages, it takes awhile to get to the most recent post in it, so I tap "classic" version in the little drop down, and then my iPhone behaves like any other device I access this site with. If I have time later, I'll do screen shots from my iPhone to show you what I mean.

What part of the forum allows you the option to sort? I only have seen the action icon that does not allow me to sort.

I have not used the mobile version of this site yet, but based on the comments, it seems that the mobile version is more functional than the Desktop version.

FYI, I use the latest version of chrome on the latest version of macOS.

I was afraid someone would ask ... suffice it to remind you I have some admin priv's, I have sort option in that area, otherwise not.

Interesting that I get the classic version on my tablet.
