Hello, Can anyone help me with this or at least point me in the right direction. I'd like to change the way the forums display just slightly.

First I was trying to change the posting information from three to two lines. Something like this:

Before:

Another test post
by testperson
08-12-2008 05:36 AM Go to last post

Change this to:

Another test post
(testperson) - 08/12/2008 05:36 AM

Is there just one template I would need to change to do this? I looked around and it's my first time to change things so I'd appreciate some advice.

Now something maybe a lot more difficult.

I use another forum and one thing I really like is that it shows the number of new threads and posts for each forum since I was last on. Something like:

36239 (1) 352611 (14)

Where the numbers in parenthesis show the number of new threads and posts.

Does anyone know of a mod / hack that would enable me to do this with Vbulletin.

Thanks for anyone who can help me or at least point me in the right direction.
