I cannot find a setting that would allow me to specify the number of days after which if someone replies to a topic, it doesn’t get bumped up to the top on the “latest” tab.

Topics only get bumped to the top if there is a response (or you have the auto bump setting on).

If it’s in one particular category you could suppress it from latest, but if you’re talking generally then I can’t think of a way.

This would practically make all “older” topic die out. You would only get newly created topics and those without any “gap” or “cooling period” (when there was no replies), in your latest.

Is er een instelling om te voorkomen dat oude onderwerpen na n dagen worden gebumpt?
