    [vb5] How do I get "Latest Posts" or "New Posts" to show up on the main navigation bar?

    It used to be there in my old vBulletin 3 board, now "New Topics" is there instead, which is fine but I still want to quickly be able to see all new posts, too.

    Search is different in vBulletin 5. New Topics shows the Topics that have had new posts since your last visit. This should behave pretty much the same as "New Posts" in vBulletin 3.

    What specifically is the difference that you're looking for?

      I want to see what New Posts have been made by any board member since the last time I logged into the board, regardless of whether or not a New Topic has been made.

        That link shows that. It shows any topic that has new activity since your last visit. You can't create a post without putting it in a topic.

          I can not figure out how to make a page that would show all new posts since last visit. Is this possible in VB5? The today's post just does not cut it for some of my members.

          I probably missed this, but I couldn't find it via search. In vb4 my registered users could see all unread posts. How can I provide this feature in vb5? Shouldn't Latest Activity offer a filter for...

          Is there a way users can simply search for new posts?

          The activity stream shows threads...can it be set to show new posts? This is a source of frustration for my users who tend to click the...

          Has anyone worked out how to emulate the "New Posts" function of previous incarnations of VB? It's the single most important navigation tool available and its replacement "Latest Topics"...
