New Look website

Hey Coach,

Nice work on the new website look. I know there was a thread for these type of questions, but couldn't find it so posting a new one, so hope that's ok.

I can't seem to find the option to show the latest posts first when opening a new thread. Can you point me in the right direct to do that, by chance?
 
Thanks, Tommy. I deleted that other thread, since nobody had any complaints.
There are a few small differences from the old board, but most are easy to navigate and I think fans will like this board a lot.
Each member can set their own preferences, if they want. Click on your name in the upper right, and select "Preferences". The column on the left then includes a lot of different settings that can be changed or customized.
To view the latest post in a thread, click on the time posted on the right side of the thread you are opening.
I hope that answers your question. If not, let me know.
And, if anyone else has any questions, please contact me or post here in this thread. If you click on any poster's name, it will allow you to send a Direct Message to that member.

One new feature that some might like to try is the option to switch to "Dark Mode" for viewing the website at night or while you are in a dark room.
All the way at the bottom left of every page, is a small circular icon. If you click on it, you can choose one of three settings-
> System (the setting the website has as default),
> Light Mode (same as System), or
> Dark Mode
Dark Mode takes a little getting used to, but it can be easier on the eyes if you view the website a lot while in the dark.

I am still learning a few things about this new Xenforo message board software. There is another way to jump to the newest posts in a thread.
I just noticed that if you click on the title to any thread that has new posts (the title will be in bold), it automatically takes you to the new posts!
These software guys think of everything!

I did catch that. One problem I see is that you do have to go back to the top and click on the Basketball Fan Talk Link to go back or it doesn't mark the thread as read. Not a big deal and the look of the forum is really nice now.

also, do the searches always show random results instead of the most recent?

When you do a search, click on the "Advanced Search" option. On that page, you can set the search for a specific time range, or set it to list results by Relevance or Date. The default setting for searches is Relevance, so you would need to change it to Date to see the most recent matches first.

Tommy, I don't believe this is true, at least not for me.
When you get to the bottom of a thread, there is a hyperlink string at the bottom (see image below) that you can click on to return to the Basketball Fan Talk & Other Sports Forum, or to the Main Menu page. If you do so, the thread you were reading should be marked as read.
