Table sorts & student


To the Best Administrator,

There's a column of "Replies" in all the forum tables. we see the value ranging from 0 - 10, 20 etc... but just a thought related to it.... There are many experts that have joined the forum and have a lot of experience in the field of Computer Science and Information Technology. One small modification that could help them is sorting of the column on clicking "Replies" so that they can answer to 0 replies where immediate reply might be expected.

In addition, there are many users (many of them wud be students), so I feel the profile shud include which university they are studying...this is just to see the awareness of the forum of different universties worldwide... (though many do not care to edit their profile...but might be an interesting one....)

This forum is one of the best of all and may be the top forum for me.... :-)

The "No replies" was a topic in the latest Community Bulliten that Jeremy sent out - that functionality is, and has always, existed on the forums.
When on the main Forums page, click on the link saying "View all threads with no replies" to view all of those threads.

About the University thing - even granted that there are probably at least as many non-students as students here, listing something like that is a purely personal choice, and definitely should be left up to the individual user. A university can be included in the "Location" section of one's profile if it is desired...

True very correct

True very correct... yes.....


But I was just thinking to be object oriented by each forum table having individual reply methods..... :-), However, if there are not many requests for this ...may be this can be ignored....



University idea.... ok location is good.... I actually did not think of .....really ....well I will just now update my profile with that...
