Order of appearance of comments

Each time I call someone I add a comment. I would like the last comments I added to an item to be displayed above the older ones so I don't have to scroll all the way down. Is this possible?
If not, is there anyway around it? Any suggestions on how I could make this work without changes in order of appearance of the comments?

  Hi Nicolas,

  It's not possible to change the ordering of comments.

  I would agree with Nicolas about the viewing order of the comments section. It does not make sense to me that you would continue to show the oldest comment at the top and have to go all the way to the bottom to see the most recent comments. I am not sure what the logic of this ordering is only for comments all the activity history shows the most recent ones first and moves them down as new ones are added. Would like to hear if this can be reconsidered so comments are handled in the same manner as activities.

  just about to ask the same question...I'm using the comments in CRM now...and it seems very counter intuitive (and a waste of time) to see a comment I made about a prospect say 2 years ago vs. say the one I made 5 minutes ago. Further to Nicolas's question...can you suggest a work around? Is there another type of field can can be used? I'm thinking maybe I could just put in a text field called "Journal" and record my customer interaction there...but then it wouldn't be part of the activity stream. Any better ideas?

  Hi Andreas,

  can you make it possible. I too use comments as information about projects, ex. update after the conversation with a supplier or progress with the client. It is a simple programming job, so do you think you can do it?

  Hi Nicolas, Got your answer...just by way of an education of Podio's thinking on this...what is the logic of showing the oldest comments first...and how is that different from your logic on the activity stream (where the updates are most recent first)?

  +1 I know that Podio has consistently said "no" to this option for the past two years, but I hope you're hearing the voice of those who want you to reconsider.

  Wow, such a simple request and still seems to be ignored after all these years.  I am going to look at other options for CRM

  Me to 01/01/2023 

  i use procfu as my email inbox and I use comments to reply to emails. 

  This means I have to scroll to the bottom. 

  It would be very rewarding to be able to reverse order the comments.
