Hi there,

Is there some way to set my default for comments in people's blogs to oldest first?

I'm looking at someone's comment and they're in reverse chronological order, which I find disconcerting. When I go to select "Oldest" as the order (which I don't really want to have to do each and every time) it gives me an error message and you can tell it's going to the wrong URL.

I don't believe this option is currently available, but I've marked this thread for the developers. :)

Should be fixed now. Can you test it and post back here if it's fixed?

Fair enough - I'll talk to the developers about it.
