Well, here goes my first super-minor modification!

Used the search function, but couldn't seem to find anything like it, so decided to do a quick one myself. It's a mere minor modification, which serves the same purpose as here on vBulletin.org.

Description:
This minor modification allows you to click a link below the category name in order to view the latest topics in XX category. It won't serve as a replacement for the forum description, so if you'd like to add a description as well, it (probably) won't interfere.

Instructions:
Go to your Style Manager in AdminCP and navigate to the following template: forumhome_forumbit_level1_nopost. Once there, you'll come across the following bit of code:
Code:
<a href="forumdisplay.php?$session[sessionurl]f=$forum[forumid]">$forum[title]</a>
<if condition="$show['forumdescription']"><div class="smallfont">$forum[description]</div></if>
Between the first and second line, add the following:
Code:
<br />
<span class="smallfont"><a href="search.php?do=getdaily&amp;forumid=$forum[forumid]&amp;childforums=<if condition="$childforumbits">1</if>&amp;saveprefs=false">Click here to view the latest topics in this category</a></span>
You can change the text accordingly. The if conditional is to check whether your category contains childforums or not, and sets it to 0 if the latter.

There goes my first modification! If you like it, don't mind to click install!
