I have lots of complaints that the VB4 feature of New Posts is missing, and the concept of New Topics is actually labelled wrongly in my opinion.
New Topics, does not only include New Topics, but New Posts related to Existing Topics.
So to appease my forum users, who mostly think VB5 was a big step backwards, I want to either introduce a New Posts search button, or relabel the New Topics button with a new name and educate them how to get the same information, with an extra click. They appear to forget the matter that the main feature we gained from VB5 was a better ability to post pictures in our threads.
With re-labelling it, I can get them to click on it, and then select the thread they are interested in, click on Latest Activity and they effectively have what they had before, albeit with an extra mouse click.
