Default Making Blogs show up in What's New?

Our members are mostly ignoring the 'Blogs' section mostly because they use the 'What's New' tab exclusively. If they could see new Blog posts & blog comments when they click the What's New tab, that would definitely help grow / drive people to the blog page.

Is there any way to do this? Thanks!

Yeah, but no one uses it. If clicking the 'What's New' button once showed new threads, blogs and articles all together on one page, members could have an overview of everything that's happening on the site.

When vB was just threads, the 'New Posts' button provided that overview. Now with the addition of blogs and articles there is no way to see everything going on at a glance.

You're missing my point. I already have a Blogs tab that no one uses, why create another? I'm asking if What's New can be made to show blogs and threads together. If it can't be done just tell me, lol.

Yeah, I have a New Blogs widget on the home page already. It doesn't help much.
