    Hey guys, glad to see you back.

    Looks like posting dates are being applied okay now, but there is a knock-on effect. Your date-descending sort will cause all of the posts made during the next week to appear after those made during the buggy period.

    I dunno if you can do anything about this (edit the post dates for the bugged ones?) but there ya go.

    Adding a post to the topics who's last post reads 10-24 puts it back into the correct order (in this case 10-18).

    I had the same problem when I tried to convert an Ikonboard to phpBB. The topics and posts converted, but the dates where thrown all out of whack. The only way I found to fix it was to manually add a post to the end of each thread to bring it back into the proper order.

    Oh well, I had nothing better to do, and there weren't that many posts dated 10-24, so I just bumped them to get the correct "last posted" date.

    All the topics should order into the index properly now.
