Do you have the link to the version of this that works with VB3X? I've searched and I can't find it.

I really appreciate it HMBeaty!

I'm now on vb4 and getting the same alignment issue as bulldog51981. Does anyone know how to resolve? I appreciate it!

Note, to do this for sub-forums you can repeat the same process for forumhome_forumbit_level1_post
I've also added the button to my top menu and hard-coded my open forum id into it, so now it's easier than ever to start a new thread even for the slowest of members.
