multiple pages threads
A repeat request..
With the long, multiple page threads, is it possible to set the board to:
1. load the newest page first
or 2. In the topic list for each forum include a link to each sub page next to the topic heading.
or 3. As Beckles suggested years ago, have all threads load newest post at the top.

Suggestions 1 and 2 above are great, but I don't agree with #3 (sorry Beckles). I just don't like reading backwards in these type of things things.

A better way to do it is as done in the DVD Talk Forum, which is also UBB based. There, by the topic, each multiple pages are listed 1,2,3,... and you click on any of them.

Yes, sorry for my poor wording. I meant to say that the best option has already been implemented elsewhere with UBB, so hopefully it should not be too hard to do here.
