So this is what I see when I open up the forum.
And then if I change to La Cava, I get this:
I just can’t see anywhere to sort threads into categories. I can toggle between categories using the drop box. But I didn’t know you could sort the threads. Is that what you meant?,
It looks like this on my phone, iPad, and any computer I use when.
When I first log into the forum, www.forum.touringplans.com I’m on the general screen which looks like this:
From here I click “Latest” and it sorts all threads by most recently responded regardless of the subforum it’s in:
Mine is set up showing Latest when I log in.
If I click on “Latest” the field changes from brown to grey but that’s all that changes. I checked line by line and the threads are all in the same order.
That’s weird. I don’t know how to fix that.
ETA what do you see if you click on the TP logo?
You have the “category” set to WDW. Change it to “All categories.”
ETA: Then it will open up displaying like my laptop does. But I don’t know how to save that setting.
So if I click the TP logo I get back to this, which I think is what you all see.
But I prefer it like I have. That way I can see Joe threads and on the one page I can see clearly any new ones since I last visited. If I have all the sections up I can’t see all that. And most of the time I only want WDW or DVC. Rarely go anywhere else.
Only I thought you were all saying thee’s a way to sort the threads, within the WDW category.
THIS.
I am shocked how many don’t have their settings as “all”, you are missing so many threads! Also, blown away by unread counts of 1804 (what the heck @missoverexcited), 533, 556. Does no one else have to open every single thread so that those numbers always read zero by the time you log off? I don’t read them all (beyond the title), but I do open every single one in every category to make the little blue numbers go away. This is madness that anyone can stand to look at all those little blue numbers! 
Now that you are on this page (with “all categories” chosen) click on “Latest” next to the dark red “Categories” box.
This will give you a list of all the different threads but across all the categories instead of just WDW.
You can view a tagged section of any category by clicking on the section name, such as “Dining,” located under each name. But I think it only displays the one section, not all sections sorted.
I am pretty sure there are only 2 or 3 threads I have ever missed! I’m not searching them out now.
Oh thank God! I am not the only insane one.
But it says you have 1804 unread threads. You must go catch up on them all, then come back and give me a summary of all 1804.
I have trouble with those numbers. Sometimes a thread I’m posting in suddenly won’t show me new posts, and sometimes the blue number won’t go away no matter how many times I read it.
Also I just clicked on it and it’s a bunch of threads with just one or two unread posts. Not entirely unread threads!
Yes
It’s a setting in your user profile
What is?
