UBB.threads PHP Forum Software Community Forums UBB.threads 7 Bug Reports 7.5 - sort direction in CP swapped

It seems that the sort direction 'ascending' and 'descending' in the forum control panel is swapped. I check the language strings of viewboard.php and it look correct. I run this query to set all my boards to descending:
If I check the the control panel all forums show 'ascending' sort direction.

Yeah, whole thing seems messed up now since upgrading to 7.5

It takes no notice of your settings in the CP

And no matter how many times I save in forum settings to 'last post', 'descending', it still shows up as 'last post', 'ascending'

I can change it in the CP and it take effect. It is a new feature in 7.5 that you be able to set the sorting for each forum. If your settings dont saved take a look at the ubbt_FORUMS table and check for the 2 new fields for the sorting order. Maybe your setup miss it. Do you run the installer while upgrading the forum? It insert 2 needed fields in the table.

This is actually a bug. The field length needs to be a varchar(4).

Thread with fix.

is there an easy way to fix it? just change the field in phpMyadmin? Or any sql command from the CP?

/update: I look into it and it is varchar(4):
FORUM_SORT_DIR varchar(4)

Or you mean this?
FORUM_SORT_FIELD varchar(10)
Change to 4?

Hmm, if it's already 4 then you must have fixed it already from a previous report

maybe but it dont work. Any setting from CP is ignored and change my data to ascending. There must be another bug in it. I change all setting now direct in the table to be sure to set all my forums to last posting descending. If I dont touch the forum settings in the CP all is fine - for now.
