I want to not have my posts sorted by date. I mean, they can be sorted by date, but can I turn off the little separators that say 'yesterday' 'last week', etc, in the article view window?

I'm using the latest version of Feeddemon downloaded today (2.6.021)

Mike.

Those separators are controlled with the Group By option

So, how do I go about changing the Group by option? I guess I'm just dumb, because I haven't been able to find it through the menu system.

Thanks. Sorry to be uninformed.

Mike.

I don't have a copy handy - I thought it was on the toolbar. You might have to click the little arrow on the right to add the button, not all buttons are there by default.

I never did find it, even after adding buttons. Argh.

Thanks.

I just checked, and it's on the default toolbar - we must be talking about different things.

I thought you were asking about the news item list, but you must be talking about the newspaper.  If you're using the default Surfer style, you'll see some links at the top.  You can switch between Feed, Date and Title to change the grouping.  There isn't as much control over the headers in the newspaper as you get in the News Item List, where you have 10 options (including none).

We must be. I'm talking about the individual items on the right hand side.

You have:




Article 1
Article 2



I want to get rid of where it says 'TODAY' and 'Yesterday'. I don't care when the article was posted. I just want to see the article. In 2.5, I could do this (or it was there by default). It seems in 2.6 that has changed. I don't like it (I know, nobody asked me). :-)

Thanks!

I think the forum corrupted your example, probably best to take a screenshot, draw on it with Paint to explain what you mean and then attach it

I have a fair idea what you're complaining about now, but do the screenshot anyway just to make sure.

There is a screenshot. Hopefully you'll be able to see it. See where it says 'Last Week' and 'Older', I want to get rid of those headings and just have it show the articles.
