    Yeah, this is a real annoyance with many forum projects, and some boards have huge discussions about hacks to change the sort order. A simple option in Vanilla 2 would be helpful. (Watch someone say "Just write a plugin"...)

    Patch here:

    Once applied, you can change the sort field and direction like this: 
    $Configuration['Vanilla']['Discussions']['SortField'] = 'd.DateInserted';
    $Configuration['Vanilla']['Discussions']['SortDirection'] = 'asc';

    @Sephj - You can change the sort direction: 
    $Configuration['Vanilla']['Discussions']['SortField'] = 'd.DateInserted';
    $Configuration['Vanilla']['Discussions']['SortDirection'] = 'desc';
