[req] Sort by: First Post Edit Time?

[PK8]

Hey, copypasting my request from MyBB.com.

Hey there! I saw a feature like this in another site and found it to be a pretty cool feature. Kind of useful for anyone who shares some creative works and whatnot.

I don't really have the know-how to do this sort of thing, so I was wondering if it's possible to pull off making a plugin which adds an option to sort by "first post edit time" to certain pages such as forumdisplay.

You want a table with last updated first posts on your forum display?

[PK8]

Nope, just a sorting option to sort threads by last updated first posts.

So what if a first post was never edited?

[PK8]

Oh man, I've... never really thought about that. I feel pretty stupid, actually. XD Perhaps it could be sorted out by thread creation date then? (Edit 2 (1:52pm EST edit): if the first post of a thread was never edited, I mean.)

Edit: Probably like a combination of thread start dates and first post edit dates.
