I have seen requests for this modification multiple times, but no one has ever really understood what alot of people would absolutely love to see. I am going to be very clear in describing what I wish I knew how to create and could be one of the most useful mods EVER to be created for vBulletin forums...

"View Posts Since Last {x} (minutes, hours, days, weeks, months, etc)"

The modification would be something that might could fit between the Navigation Bar and the forum stuff. I think the best place for it to show up would be once you have clicked on "New Posts"... and show up around here:

The best example I can find would be here on a Snitz Forum:

http://www.ranger-forums.com/active-topics.jpg

click here to see it "live" (http://www.generation-edge.com/forums/active.asp)

Now, I have already modified the Display Options for the individual forums on my site, and gotten it to be like this:

http://www.ranger-forums.com/display-options.jpg

click here to see it "live" (http://www.ranger-forums.com/forum2/forumdisplay.php?f=15)

My site is not an example of what I am looking for. The point of this mod would be to show topics from [x] amount of time, from ALL FORUMS.

When you click on "New Posts" it will, by default, show you all the new posts since your last visit, but in the spot I circled in the topmost image, have a menu box dealie that has all the "posts since [x] amount of time" thing for all forums...

So... is it possible? :)

It is not only possible, it has been done. One of the variants can be found here (http://www.vbulletintemplates.com/mods/showthread.php?t=6979).

With some minor tweaks, you can add to or change the options.
