From here you could change the order of Forum Groups and Forums within a Group. It didn't always work as expected since some built in groups/forums could have a sort order of 1 and a newly created forum could get a sort order of 9999 by default. It would have required many clicks on the arrows before anything happened. It was better to change the sortorder number directly in the database.

From here you could also navigate to a specific group or forum and be able to set it's settings.
