Recent topics does not change if edited

Hi,

t po

I am using /topics/style/forum/recent api to get the list of recent topics,

 

but if I edit any topic it does not sort by last edited.

 

Is there a way to get recent topics sorted by last edited time?

 

Thanks,

Sunny

    sunny_mody - Yes, you can sort the topics using following snippet

     

    <#assign topics = rest("/topics/style/forum/recent?restapi.response_style=view").messages />
        <#list topics.message?sort_by(["last_edit_time"])?reverse as sorted_topics>
	      ${sorted_topics.board_id} (${sorted_topics.last_edit_time.@view_date} ${sorted_topics.last_edit_time.@view_time})<br>
        </#list>

     The code highlighted in blue would sort it for you. Let me know if this helps.

      A word of caution about the proposed solution in the code snippet above. Using that approach will lead to the performance issues since the sorting is being made programmatically and NOT via the API. 

      As far as I know, it is NOT currently possible to sort topics by last edit time either with REST API v1 or v2.
