No support by the author.

In order to simplify searching, I wanted to make the New Post status icon link to the search engine and retrieve only the new posts for that forum. If there are no new posts, the icon links to the forum itself.

Open forumhome_forumbit_levelX_post. In my example, I am using forumhome_forumbit_level2_post.

Find:
HTML Code:
	  <img src="$stylevar[imgdir_statusicon]/forum_$forum[statusicon].gif" alt="" border="0" />
Replace with:
HTML Code:
	<if condition="$forum[statusicon]=='new'">
	  <a href="search.php?do=getnew&include=$forum[forumid]"><img src="$stylevar[imgdir_statusicon]/forum_$forum[statusicon].gif" alt="" border="0" /></a>
	<else />
	  <a href="forumdisplay.php?$session[sessionurl]f=$forum[forumid]"><img src="$stylevar[imgdir_statusicon]/forum_$forum[statusicon].gif" alt="" border="0" /></a>
	</if>  
You can apply similar modifications to any forumbit at any level.

Level 1 is usually reserved for categories in most forums. Level 2 is the actual forums.

This modification doesn't really change the look of a forum. It changes behavior. In the default style, the status icons do not do anything except show whether there are new posts or not. With my modification, the status icon becomes a link that shows all the new posts in that forum or loads the entire forum if there are no new posts.
