ok, I'm using version 2.7 on vb3.5.6 and I still can't figure out how to sort the event threads BY EVENT DATE instead by whatever the heck they're being sorted now.
what would I need to do to get that sorted out?
also, is there any way to make the titles of new threads (not the calendar event entries, just threads) keep the custom thread title (or at least the date of the event) when being moved from the original forum they've been posted to into an archive forum (for past events). why? because once they get moved to another forum (in this case, an archive) they lose all the custom thread title formatting (especially the date of the event) and it makes it REALLY hard to sort them in that new forum (by event date), plus it makes it really hard for visitors to locate the thread they are looking for when there's no date in the title.
another question - is there a way to automatically move (or delete) threads 24hrs (or whatever set time) AFTER the event expires/is passed? this would allow me to keep a clean and updated "upcoming events" forum without older threads cluttering it up...
