First of all: Your Portal Version: 1.0.0RC3
Is this the version you are using? If so - it's outdated (1.0.2 is the actual version). Please update and see if the problem still exists.

Second:
We need more Information how you have set the settings for the portal, as you are the first one who reports this problem.
So i assume that you've maybe done some misconfiguration.
With this lag of information, we can say anything. I can't reproduce it as well.

So you can surely understand that i can't help you.
No one else has reported this problem - after a few thousand downloads over the last versions.
As long as you don't tell us more details (e.g. how your settings for the news / recent topics are) and this problem is still not reproducible for us, nobody can help you.
And your forum is obviously a local installation, so no one can take a look on it.

I gess I found the problem,the recent block only detect first post of each topic date,so it can NOT detect which topic is updated and must go to first.

You can see the problem in board3.de too !

please help to solve this problem

Yes,you are. :roll:

OK, one try to explain to you:

- The recent topics are sorted by the date of the first post (topic creation date). That's the way it's supposed to be. Otherwise we should call it "recent posts"
- The latest news are sorted by the last / newest post date. You can change this to the topic creation date in your ACP, there is an option for it.

I think it's enough, my explanation was clear enough, put a little more effort in it and try to understand it.
8 posts to sort out that you simply don't understand how the portal works and you obviously not even tried the ACP options. :roll:
Take a look in the ACP for the options, analyze the post with their dates and you will understand.

Topic closed.
