In a new discourse installation, I don’t know why but pressing “Latest” and pressing “Top” it shows different topics. Is there any way that by default will show all topics in a category; Default to all users…

Hey Gio, Welcome to Meta! The ‘Latest’ and ‘Top’ views do two different things: Latest - shows topics ordered chronologically - most recent first (this is the default view) Top - shows the most ‘active’ topics in a given timeframe. By default it will filter for the current week, but the user can …

Hi, thanx for the welcome :slight_smile: Is there a way to show by default all topics when someone enters a category; For example I want to enter a category and by default to see all it’s topics.

Then something is not going right, see, I have 5 topics (1,2,3,4,5) in “YYY” category, when in Top view I can see topics 1,2,3 - when in Latest view I can see topics 2,4,5.

Do you have a link where we can see this? That might help understand the issue.

Testing now a bunch of things, it seems only to me(admin) is happening this, disconnected or/and with a dump account(tl1) it seems to be working ok. One correction to my above posting, in Latest view I can see 2,3,5-not 2,4,5. Anyway it’s this https://kairos.snowguide.gr/c/5-category/l/top Screen…

Here are 2 screenshots, one in Latest view and one in Top. I have marked with red color the difference. [latest] [top]

I’m not sure - I believe these should be the same, yes. This question is above my pay grade :slight_smile:

It shows different topics with Top than with Latest

That is what the ‘Latest’ view does, unless you have something different in mind?
