Hi guy's and girls, I must have accidentally clicked the wrong icon somewhere and now the forums threads are not being displayed the way Im used to and I can't get along with it.

Basically whenever someone would post a new thread this would appear at the top of that forums threads ie just below the sticky's now they seem to be appearing halfway down the forum.

Also I have just added a new post and when I go to see it - it appears in the middle of the posts i.e after yesterdays posts and to the top of todays posts and not at the bottom of the screen as a last post like I am used to.

Could someone please let me know how to fix this or reset the preferences on the forums.

I hope I have made sense.

Best wishes

-BM

Thanks for the reply blur - Glad I wasn't alone with this problem.

After a few posts this problem appears to have been fixed.

Which is great news - Thanks for solving the problem guy's

The issue is the way vBulletin displays posts. It does so by the timestamp. After the server transfer, the server time was way behind what it should have been.

As a result, all posts made during the wrong server time get out of place in the threads, but as soon as the server time was updated and corrected, it was too late to correct what was already posted. This shouldn't happen going forward, though, unless someone changes the server time :)
