Thread layout question.

[TarHeelBrit]

Newbie question here regarding the post layout on threads. I notice that the first post in a thread is on the bottom of the page not the top. I will confess to being confused (it's easily done ) as I'm used to the OP being at the top. Is there anyway I can rearrange the threads so the first post is at the top?

Thanks in advance,
Malc.

Hi Malc,
On the blue bar above there's a "Forum Actions" button in the dark blue line, click it and some options come up like this.

  Go to the "Thread Display" and you can change how it appears. I know 'cause I like mine set out in an odd way!
  
  Hope this helps,

No worries Malc (Not so much of an expert that my cut and paste didn't come out right!). Glad to be of help, I like my browser the other way 'round from most folk - 'cause I'm weird!
