you can't change view order? (General)
I went into the main.tpl file and added .?mode=index&thread_order=1 into the first div.
<div id="top"> <div class="left"> {if $settings.home_linkname}<p class="home"><a href="{$settings.home_linkaddress}">{$settings.home_linkname}</a></p>{/if} <h1> <a href=".?mode=index&thread_order=1" title="{#forum_index_link_title#}">{$settings.forum_name|escape:"html"}</a></h1> </div>
This forces it into the view we want. I assume the cookies do their thing and keep it into this view once they have clicked the links.
I know its a cheap work around.
Does anyone have any other ways of doing this?
