Flexible order of threads and newsfeeds

I am using the script for some kind of thinktank with a small group, to exchange ideas and inspiration and so on.

What i miss, are options to manage the order more flexible.
For example, i would like to set the order of a thread myself, as a creator of a new thread. First newest or, first oldest post. And the possibility to set a post sticky. This is good for thread of collections, like links or images.

The second is, that i want to manage the newsfeed as an administrator (global for all users) to a feed compared like facebook. I don´t wont to see the first post of a thread appears on top, but the last ceated post - so that i see immediately whats new.
I also figured out, that links aren´t working as links in the newsfeed, i´ve to enter the post first.

Won't this option be better suited for the admin ?

And the possibility to set a post sticky.

Codoforum already has sticky topics feature.
Just tick the checkbox as sticky for a particular topic while creating/editing it.

. I don´t wont to see the first post of a thread appears on top, but the last ceated post - so that i see immediately whats new.

We will add an option in the backend for this.

Necessity is the mother of all inventions!

I don´t know excatly why, but you decided to make an order like it is set right now, the oldest post appears first, an the later in chronological order. But there must be reasons why this is an good idea. I can image that a greater discussion you join in, is more understandable by reading every post from the beginning, for example.
This thought may leads toward the conclusion, that the order of posts is a decision made for a specific topic. As this is, i would think it would be probably better, the creator of a new topic would be able to choose what order-option is the better one for his thread.

We will add an option in the backend for this.

Thank you very much. I am looking forward for the next update :-)

And thank you for all your good work so far. I really appreciate your simple and beautiful script.
