XF 2.1 After thread merge posts are not in order

[Homeless Larry]

The threads did merge but the order is off. Rebuilding the threads, post position, and counters doesn't appear to be changing anything.

Ideas?

The posts are sorted in date order, not thread order.

Exactly. And the chronological order is off. See above.

Maybe rebuilding the threads cache will solve the problem, see the info?

This was the first thing I did (twice) and no luck unfortunately.

Yeah, I realized it and deleted my post after 10 seconds. Sorry.

Well if that doesn't help, it should be treated as a bug probably? I don't know what the official response to this will be.

Meanwhile, if it is only 1 thread, you could maybe try this free addon to update the dates, which will maybe fix the problem?

That addon changes date of a post. So you can set any time you want for any post you want.

If you want to change the owner of a thread to whoever you want, see:
