Go to User CP. then find Edit Options. In that section go to Thread Display Mode (scroll down) and select Liner - Oldest First or newest first. Which ever order you want.

That will do it.

Not sure if this has been asked before

1. If linking pics from other sites is not allowed, why give that option in the reply box.

2. If posting a classified without a picture/price attracts a serious infraction, why not validate those fields ?

That command can be used to re-use pictures from within Team-BHP itself. Related FAQ Entry

Daylight saving has kicked in, hence so.

Current work around - set your time zone to one that is one hour behind your actual time zone; unless there is an actual patch / solution that can be applied.

Time corrected. Thanks!

Is it Ok to post the same content across multiple threads?

There are lot of posts as such, where people end up posting the same content, word to word, in multiple threads; a sure way to increase count!

Had reported such post, but no action. So I guess this practice is allowed. Am I right?

Absolutely NOT! This will count as spam, and some members have already been infracted for cross-posting the same data across many threads. In case a member feels its absolutely imperative to, then permission must be taken from the Moderator Team well in advance.

Would have been allowed as a one-off. Please keep those reports coming

It makes our job much easier.

When you view someone's public profile, it says XYZ is not a member of any public groups (under Group Memberships Section). So, what are these groups? I have never seen anyone being a member of any.

Vbulletin allows groups within member groups. For instance, we could have joinable Fiat groups (why are they always first

), Bangalore IT Professional groups, Tyre lover groups etc. etc.

We'd rather not segregate the board amongst such groups. Period.

Hi,

Why is that only an Skoda Octavia red is always doting our site(feels boring? can we have all car models in India on rotation?(if this question has been asked earlier, MODS-kindly delete my post)

Hi getsurya,

If you have noticed, the car changes periodically on the WEB page (Team-BHP - The Definitive Indian Car Community - Home).

We are working on getting the car to change/cycle between others on the forum sections as well.
