Displaying old posts

[elliott224]

How do I change my settings so that msgs older than 30 days will be displayed. Right now if a visitor goes to a forum, there is a msg that says there have been no posts in the past 30 days. They then have to change a setting to see old msgs. I want all msgs displayed when someone first goes to my site.

Assuming you have set your config.php file to allow you to run queries......

Maintenence > SQL Query > Drop Down List

Right at the bottom of that list there is an option which says 'show all threads'. Select that then click continue and keep clicking through till you get to where you started.
