Just noticed this when viewing posts in the last 24 hours...

IPB is dyslexic.

I just noticed it's already in the Tracker...

That original poster's native language is, I believe, Hebrew.

That's a "right-to-left" language, and the post might be reflecting that somehow?

It's the backwards question mark. It's fooling the forum into thinking that it's going right to left, and therefore it's putting the pages backwards. It's not really a fixable issue.

OK, but what's generating the backwards question mark?

That's not something the user did. All they can do is create the post title (and subtitle). Unless I'm missing something obvious....

I'm guessing the user had it on the end of the topic title. Still, that's weird. :blink:

- Put backwards question mark from other language/charset in post title
- Watch things go screwy
؟- ???؟

Oh, ok. That explains it.

Am I the only one who like it like that?

I think it is better in some ways to have last page first and vice versa. It saves people who have already read most of the topics to go straight to the last page instead of going through all the replys to read it.
