Sort threads by the date of the first post

A really simple plugin.

There's no controls, you need to add your forumid to the script itself.

It simply orders the threads by the date of the original post instead of the date of the last post made in that thread.

This could be useful for a forum in which you post news etc where you want the latest news to stay on top.

Try adding the bold bit in the plug-in (not sure if it works tho so test it on a test forum first)

if (in_array($foruminfo[forumid], array(97,52,53)))
{
$sqlsortfield = 'dateline';
$sqlsortorder = "asc";
}
