MyBB Community Forums

So I changed post view to classic but it's still showing as horizontal.

can you provide a photo ? or tell us what you mean by changing post view to classic ? how you did it ?

Run this query in PHPMyAdmin or whatever database manager you use:

UPDATE `mybb_users` SET `classicpostbit` = '1' WHERE `classicpostbit` = '0'

@Vernier Thanks.

And what would the reverse be?

The following sets the classic postbit to every user:

UPDATE `mybb_users` SET `classicpostbit` = '1' WHERE `classicpostbit` = '0' 

The following sets the horizontal postbit to every user:

UPDATE `mybb_users` SET `classicpostbit` = '0' WHERE `classicpostbit` = '1' 

Brilliant thanks.

Where is the correct settings in the GUI to set the correct view for everyone in the forum?

I set mine to classic view and when I view a thread it is not showing the thread correctly.

I do not want to have to go into the db and run code.

Thanks for any assistance.

Use the fix supplied by Vernier above.

I see the fix and applied it.

Does this setting mean that all new registered users will view threads in classic style?

Yes.
