How to show 'New Threads' on Forum

[SpottySocks]

I've searched but can't find anything on this so am posting out of desperation hoping some kind soul can help me!

I'm running vB 4.2.0, is there any way to show 'New Threads' at the top of the forum?

I don't mean new posts, I mean new threads started. My members are complaining saying they're missing new threads and I'm looking for a way to highlight them on the front of the forum.

I don't use the CMS so a widget is no good.

Whether it be through plugins or template changes - I don't mind!

What is considered 'new' to you? 0 posts? within last week? Because some threads in some forums may have 0 posts but be years old...

Well... most recent new threads

Brilliant - thanks!!

Out of curiousity - how did you get the 'What's Going On?' into your sidebar?

Thank you very much for this. Can you tell me how can I add a "New Threads" button in the Forum Tab via the Navigation Manager ? Thanks if you can help.
