??? New Posts ???

I preferred the old "New Posts" feature which showed all new posts since your last visit. Now we have "New Unread Posts 3,693" and "All Recent Posts" both of which do not do what the old feature did or am I missing something here?

That's not what PrintColor wanted. You guys hafta make up your minds and stop being so confusing. This place is starting to sound like John Lydgate's old saying.

Yes, same here. I'm confused too.

Exactly: “You can please some of the people all of the time, you can please all of the people some of the time, but you can’t please all of the people all of the time”


I'm not exactly sure how vBulletin's New Posts functionality worked. Can someone explain it please? And to be honest - I simply do not understand the confusion.
I've tried explaining in so many ways how to access all recent posts and all unread posts:

NAVIGATING THE HOMEPAGE NEW FORUM POSTS SECTION :
(Accessing recent posts, recent activity stream & unread forum posts...)

To alleviate any misunderstanding about the navigation functionality, we've placed THREE buttons at the bottom of the actual "New Forum Posts" homepage block:

1. All Recent Forum Posts... Produces a list of ALL RECENT forum posts, with the exception of posts that you've already read.
2. Recent Activity Stream... Produces a Facebook wall-like list of ALL RECENT FORUM activity. Media posts, profile posts, thread replies, post likes, avatar changes and a myriad of other recent activity will appear in the activity stream.
3. New Unread Forum Posts... Produces a list of ALL NEW & UNREAD forum posts. The number to the right-side is the actual number of unread posts.

It should also be noted that all links are easily accessible via the main "Home" & "Forums" navigation link dropdowns and/or sub-navigation menu:

I cannot possibly make it any clearer than this.

Pretty sure it worked the same way the current "New Unread Posts" button works. I dislike the name change, but the functionality certainly seems identical to me.
