    Order of posts in showthread - how to put in chronological order?

    Right now threads are displaying with the newest posts on top and older posts below. How can I make it so that threads display posts chronologically with the oldest posts at the top and getting more and more recent as you descend so that new posts are on the last pages of threads?

    Thank you.

    Look for the Thread Display settings in vBulletin Options. This sets the default view mode for new members:

    Admin CP -> vBulletin Options -> User Registration Options -> Thread Display Mode -> Linear - Oldest First

    To reset options for existing users:

    Admin CP -> Maintenance -> Execute SQL Query -> Automatic Query -> Posts - Oldest First

    Then click on 'Continue'.

    And finally to do this just for yourself:

    User CP -> Edit Options -> Thread Display Options -> Thead Display Mode -> Linear - Oldest First
