When I click on view today’s posts it directs me to post # 1 instead to the last one…

That shortcut is setup by the developers at MyBB. I believe it is hard coded and has no configureable settings. I will confirm. David

PB, my assertions are accurate. There are no configurable settings we can adjust to affect how Today's Posts appear in the Forum.

Be advised that Cormanus and I updated to the latest MyBB Platform earlier this month (MyBB 1.8.39). That release contained code that improved Thread functionality and performance. It also addressed some security issues that we had previously addressed with other technologies. Sadly, no love was shown to Today's Post functionality.

As best I can tell, End Users have been asking for that functionality to be enhanced for almost 10 years.

There is a major release of MyBB in late Production: MyBB 2.0 is a complete rewrite of the open source code. See summary below for more details.

Identical to me. pdsdse, and Cormanus, let's all remember that MyBB Developers work for free. Their reward is the satisifcation gained by knowing Forums are better able to interact with Members. Let's be patient and look to release 2.00 with guarded enthusiasm. More to follow as the release progresses from Development to Alpha Testing:

MyBB 2.0 Overview and Release Date

Key features and improvements in MyBB 2.0 are expected to include:

• Rewrite from scratch: A modern and efficient codebase built with the Laravel framework.
  
• MVC Architecture: A structured and organized approach to development, making it easier to maintain and extend.

• Redesigned User Control Panel: A simplified and more centralized location for managing user settings and profile details.
  
• Core Like Functionality: The ability to "like" content, which is integrated directly into the core software.

• Forum Overview Enhancements: Showing the avatar of the last user to post and a minimalistic approach to displaying forum content.

Release Date:
It's important to note that there is no set release date for MyBB 2.0. Development was put on hold in June 2018 to focus on incremental updates to the 1.x branch. While progress has been made, MyBB 2.0 is currently in pre-alpha and still requires significant development. The project intends to release public alpha and beta versions as the codebase stabilizes.
