I'm not sure if it allows latest posts within threads, but I'm sure it does.

Anyway, I'm not sure why the script isn't working for JCF. Maybe it's disabled or was crippled in a hack attempt? By hack, I mean an admin attempt to add/change a feature, not a hacker trying to be stupid.

Well, this is a gamma version of vB3. Perhaps that's the reason. But we'd have to pay $30 (year's updates fee) to get a higher version. (It makes me angry at Jelsoft - first they are so slow with their v3 release that it takes months longer before it's there then they charge you for the fact they didn't do it within that time. And that for a product that seems more bloated than ever.)
