Hello. I'd like to have the ability to see the "New Posts" for only a specific category or forum and not all new posts from the whole board. Is that possible? Is there any hack already?

ya is possible...
use my hack and add a simple "if" condition... something like:

if ($thread['forumid'] == 2) {
  eval("\$newsbits .= \"".gettemplate('forumhome_threadbits')."\";");
}

or use an array for selective forums:

if (in_array($thread['forumid'], array(2, 5, 18))) {
  eval("\$newsbits .= \"".gettemplate('forumhome_threadbits')."\";");
}

where 2, 5, and 18 are your forums from where you pull the information.
