I'm not precisely sure if you can do that, but then again, I'm not a Developer either so I could be wrong.

Perhaps some kind of programatic change to the XML after you receive it might solve the problem, pivoting off of the date parameter:

Or perhaps you can tinker with the sort order parameter:

but I'm not sure if any of those solutions would really work. Sorry if none of this is helpful.

Thanks for the reply, Jake.

 

I played with sort option using topic_sort_order and message_sort_order.  I found out that using these options will sort the messages node inside the thread.  But, this is not the desired result.

 

At least, I can see the list of featured threads per board under Admin Tool.  So, I'll use the list to manage the threads.

 

Thanks!
