By default, the platform does not have this option. You can use the following function code to set descending order for Forum Discussion replies.
Please follow the steps below:
1. Go to Appearance > Theme Editor.
2. Under “Select theme to edit”, choose (BuddyBoss Child/whatever theme is active), then click “Select”.
3. Below Theme Files, select Theme Functions (functions.php).
4. Append the code just before the closing PHP tag “?>”:
add_filter('bbp_before_has_replies_parse_args', 'buddyboss__change_replies_order');
function buddyboss__change_replies_order($r) {
$r['order'] = 'DESC';
return $r;
}
5. Click “Update File” to save the changes.
