How to use a NICE "New Posts" link and where?
 

Hello everyone! Dimitris here from opel-club.gr :)

Before I go on with my question, let me write the introduction :)

We were used to the "New Posts since last visit" function of phpbb2 and once we turned to vbulletin we couldn't find it anywhere. What I did, was to add the link http://www.opel-club.gr/vbulletin/search.php?do=getnew on the top right corner of our style, along with the "Welcome $username" message. So, we have a very discreet "new posts" link there.

But my exact 2 questions are:

1. How can I make the link display:
"New Posts (316)" (so, 316 is the example number of new posts) ???
or "There are 316 New posts since your last visit".

Please note: I AM NOT interested in the TODAY'S POSTS link! I need just the above modification of "Getnew" :)

To be quite honest I don't even remember right now how I added that link up there - the good thing is that I did it, but I hope you can help me with that (I think I added it in the header).

2. Ok, if we find out No1, how can we include it in the dynamic menu of LINKS?

Thank you very much for your time :)
