Not a blockbuster by any means. Just a simple (yet effective) little link, makes it easy to find the new posts in that particular forum. (If there are NO new posts in a forum, the text link on forumhome says "old" instead.)

In FORUMDISPLAY template, find:

Code:

	<td class="tcat" width="100%">$vbphrase[threads_in_forum]<span class="normal"> : $foruminfo[title]</span></td>

Replace with:

Code:

<td class="tcat" width="100%">$vbphrase[threads_in_forum]<span class="normal"> : $foruminfo[title] <a href="search.php?do=getnew&include=$foruminfo[forumid]">(new in <b>bold</b>)</a></span></td>

In forumhome_forumbit_level1_post template, find:

Code:

<a href="forumdisplay.php?$session[sessionurl]f=$forum[forumid]"><strong>$forum[title]</strong></a>

Replace with:

Code:

<a href="forumdisplay.php?$session[sessionurl]f=$forum[forumid]"><strong>$forum[title]</strong></a> <span class="smallfont"><a href="search.php?do=getnew&include=$forum[forumid]">$forum[statusicon]</a></span>

...done.
