I think I found the problem.... I changed the Display options ..... odd it was only this forum that was different to the others!

Don't worry Traf - have figured out how to do it:

Disappearing threads on this Forum!


But still haven't figured out where missing threads gone. How can I get them back?

The default age cut-off for this forum is only a couple of days or so. If you select 'default' in your display optrions for the age cut-off all threads olde than that will disappear!

Why is the default age cut-off for this thread so much shorter than others?

Also, please tell me how you copy links that you included in your post so that they include the name of the thread - rather than just the web page address.

crikey I didn't even realise they had the links in ,all I did was copy and paste from the list below,each one that had your name yesturday

the middle one didn't work properly presumably because I messed up the copying

Below the list of threads you should see "Display options"

You'll see that it says last day in the From the menu
Change this to beginning and then click Show Threads

Your link isn't working for me,I remember I had this problem but only on some boards and I cured it by going into cp and making sure



'Default thread age cut off'.is set to 'show all threads'

Yes, I notice that too, but was keeping quiet. The problem is that only part of the web address is copied - it is ignoring the www.moneysavingexpert.com bit!

In my Control Panel, Default Age Cut-Off was Forum Default! If other users are the same as me, they are going to miss a lot of posts on Tax because the Forum Default Age Cut-Off is only a couple of days or so!
