Sorting all of the things!

On my forum I'd like to sort threads in order to better digest the information as an admin.

I'd like to sort by post rating (I use thumbs up, not stars) to see the highest-rated threads, I'd like sort by post views, post count, and first post date (so I can see the oldest-started threads first).

Are any of these things possible right now with the right coding? Any chance of this kind of sorting becoming available in the future?

you can sort by oldest first or newest first currently with option settings...

the other ways you  mention sorting can be accomplished (I believe) through the use of our API...  we have filters on all the main views (group, forum, topic, etc) where you can affect the query itself and change the sort order...

It would take a small amount of code to hook into the filter and change the sort order to what you want...
