Archive options

[PakPassion]

Where do I edit archive options from, archive seems to be showing oldest posts first and newest last which is not the case on alot of other VB forums I visit.

There is no function to change this. Doing so requires modifying the code. We cannot officially support code modifications or forums running modified code, however can try searching or asking for help with this over at www.vbulletin.org.

The early versions of vBulletin 3 had the order that way, and later versions of vBulletin 3 display the archives oldest first, which started with version 3.0.3 I think.

It was done to keep the archive pages from not changing so often and the data becoming useless when spidered. I think

add "pda=1" to the end of your archive links so it looks like this:

This seems to help.

That being said, is it possible to change the Archive template?

I have vb 3.0.7 and it shows oldest first, newest last.

I'd like to reverse this too but I understand why its like this....
