Suggestion If we could know how old is a thread?

Sanjeev · Jan 21, 2023

Presently we cannot see the date when the thread started before we open it.

I would suggest having a change so that date of the start of the thread appears under the thread. That will help the users to know if it's an old or a new thread.

This is not required. All someone has to do, is check at the top of every thread. The original post date and time is already there for the thread starting post. In addition to that, each and every single post in each thread, regardless of the reply, has it's own post date and time based on when the person posted the reply.

Example:

I don't have any idea of how the date of the thread can help towards contribution to the community as far as our content is concerned

@Joshua Farrell I am talking about the thread, we don't see the date and time on the thread on the home page.

Why do you want to know the age of the thread hehehe? Those old threads might be unanswered three or answered. In fact, I have old threads that were found by members here, and felt glad for they found them and enjoyed discussing about them. I have many unanswered threads, especially about webmaster posts under the thread.

Why would that information be needed on the forum index anyways? If you want to know how old a thread is, just open it and go straight to the first post of the thread, and it would be there. No need to add unneeded features to a page that you do not need that information on it.

Because I don't know about others but I like to read the new threads instead of the old threads.

As I said, you can always go to the first post if in question. No need to add an unnecessary feature to tell otherwise.

I believe this question has been answered and no further discussion/comments are necessary. With this being said, I am going to lock this thread and move it to the archives.
