Sorry folks - another Ring doorbell question!
So .. I eventually got our Ring wired doorbell up and running and it all seems to work as it should on my phone. (We don't need what you get with a subscription.)

A couple of days ago, I stopped being able to change the order of comments made on any posts. I was always able to select, from a drop down menu, "most recent*". That option has disappeared. As far as I know I haven't changed any settings. It is just me? *They call it "newest"
