How To Sort On A Custom Field?

[mashby]

Ok, I found my answer to some extent. If you edit your "forumdisplay_forumbit" templates you can change the following code from

<a href="forumdisplay.php?s=$session[sessionhash]&forumid=$forum[forumid]">

to

<a href="forumdisplay.php?s=$session[sessionhash]&forumid=$forum[forumid]&sortorder=asc&sortfield=title">

this will then make the forum list by thread title.

======================
Why Do I Want This?
======================
I'm putting together a forum to act as a task/project list. Since vB, by default, sorts by date, this means that posts can get "out of wack."

By starting each post with a "#" I can in effect create a prioritized task list.

========================
What's Missing
========================
The only thing missing is that I can see using this template mod in forums where I don't want this effect in ALL forums.

Is there a hack out there that will allow you to have separate forumdisplay_forumbits for different parts of vB? In other words, have forumid #1 have one set of forumdisplay_forumbits and forumid #2 have a different set?
