I dig this.

My hat is off to jminer for all their work (especially so quickly!) Quick ask, how do I see the most recent posts? I seem to see a mix of recent and non-recent mixed in. This is looking, and feeling, like a really great platform!
-
sort by Topics: Newest to Oldest seems to do it
-
@Hooker New plugin added - click the oppo in the top left then as dave says sort that view by Topics: newest to oldest. It'll save in your user settings so should come back and load like that every time.
Does have the categories listed on top, but it's the best I can do right now.

@jminer
This is what I'm seeing. I think I may be doing something wrong? I may just be an idiot? Also, it looks like lead post images don't make it into the post when you enter the post. If that makes sense! -
@hooker You're right, they take you to the user posting it. Not much I can do there as the functionality we're using to give us thumbnails replaces the user thumbnail with a selected one for the post.
-
@jminer Ah, it seems as if a post/comment is made on a post, it will show that as the most recent which kind of forces the content to be jumbled even in most recent view.
-
@hooker I’ve been noticing that, too. That’s really the only thing so far that I dislike. Otherwise this setup seems really good so far!
-
@hooker Yeah, as it's a forum-style setup, it sorts the most recent posts at top, but also re-sorts them to top if they get comments. I'm hoping we can find a way to sort it Kinja-style to be strictly chronological
As for image thumbnails....yeah, clicking on those thumbnails takes you to that user's profile right now, not much we can do there, but we're looking into potential ways to fix that if we can, maybe. Also, as for post thumbnails...they are not like Kinja where they pull the first (or only) image from a post and use that for the thumbnail.
Thumbnails here (at least right now) are manual....which can be annoying, or nice, depending how you look at it. To do that, click the "windows logo-style' 4-block button along the options at the top to upload the thumbnail of your choice!

@rallydarkstrike I'm learning! I still dig it! I am torn between the two front running platforms, however, I think I see more potential here.
-
@hooker If you click the 'Oppo' at the top left, Jminer implemented a new home-page! Go there, then at the top-right, set the 'Sort' to 'Topics: Newest to Oldest' and things will work like Kinja with the newest posts first, regardless of replies!
I've already asked if there is a way to set that to the default sort, but for now if you leave a tab open set like that and just refresh it, it functions the same way as the Oppo Kinja main page
