Very sorry for the noob question, but I've been searching for a while now with no results.

This forum here at drupal.org looks perfect for me, but I can't find how to make mine work in the same way.

I have Drupal 6 with the forum, taxonomy and comment modules enabled.

For example:
1. When I click on the forum navigation link, I would like it to open to a list of topics, rather than the latest topic opened up with all it's comments.

2. When in the topic and it's comments, I would like the username and time underneath the topic heading instead of over to the right.

3. The order of comments does not seem right. I would like each comment to come below the last one - even if not replying to the last comment.

4. I don't like having links to the previous and next forum topics, it's OK to press back in the browser.

Many thanks for any help pointing me in the right direction with this (probably stupid) question.

1) I don't understand this one... What link are you clicking?

2) That's a matter of theming.

3) Set the comment viewing option to flat list expanded.

4) That's tricky to do in Drupal 6. The code is in advanced forum if you want to try it.

Thanks Michelle, it's good to know how to get things how I want them.

I fixed my problem with 1. I was clicking a link from the main navigation menu, I just changed the content of the link to the page that I wanted.

I'll check out the advanced forum and theming when I'm a bit more confident with all things Drupal.
