Thanks for the reply...
You might have missed what I was saying. It was the order AFTER the pinned ones.
It now appears something is now working, but some threads are sort of 'stuck' at the top, and maybe that was the problem I saw and captured above.
Here is what I see now:
Top one IS Pinned, no problem. The bottom 2 are your replies. Last post is within the hour. However, the 2 between your posts and the pinned one is way out of order by the last post date. That is the 2 above the ones you replied to have dates of 2022-06-24 followed by 2023-01-20, those are way out of order? Either that or I don't know how or why they show above your 2 replies?
Maybe I'm jaded, but I like to see the most recent ones first by last reply. Those generally would be of more value than the one that was last posted into on May of '22.
A suggestion I would have is with reguards to a specific Subject sorting. Right now they are in original post and all replies sequentially. I know some other forums are tying 'threaded' subjects... that is you read all the replies indented in a sub thread.
Like this....

etc.
Makes it easier on long threads and clearer who replied to who.
Another suggestion...
Make someone who starts a subject SELECT a ROUTER and put that info on the page of threads... You already have some showing up, like BUG or FIRMWARE UPDATE. Most Routers that are still being sold or supported could be a pulldown selection list or common problems, as well as Other as chioces...
Such as like these two above:
The first of course was done by a forum member, but one doesn't know what it pertains to, what router is it for? 2nd one is created by someone within TP-Link, and they have the capability to add those keywords AND put the router model in the Subject. With those 3 parts of extra info it is clear what it about. Not the first one, at least until I read it?
