Can I see all the messages in one thread in a discussion board?

As people are aware the discussion board has been upgraded in version 7.2. The outcome is that the strategy you need to adopt to read discussion board contributions in a thread has changed. If you want to bring all the contributions together on one page (as opposed to using the previous / next links), and have them displayed in chronological order then you need to use the collect button. For instance, tick the check box next to the thread(s) you wish to read, then click on the collect button. This will display all the material on one page. You can use the sort by drop down menu to further organise these by author, thread, date and subject.
