As of 23 Nov 2017 this modification has been withdrawn.

This displays the actual number of posts that are still considered unread by you (and will show up in a 'getnew' search).

There is also an option to put back the members last visit date, which was removed in vb4. There is the choice to count the unread posts since your last visit, or all posts considered unread. This setting reflects where the divider in the 'getnew' search display used to be (apparently its no longer displayed).

There is also the option to disable the unread posts display or the new reputation comments display. New Reputation Comments are shown in the Notifications section.

This modifications settings are located in vBulletin Options > Display Unread Posts[/COLOR].

The unread posts functionality requires that database thread marking is active.
Please be aware that installing this will enable that system (with automatic forum marking).
Forum marking choices are located in vBulletin Options > General Settings > Thread/Forum Read Marking Type

To install this hack unzip the xml file and import it using the ACP Product Manager.

Is there a way I can set this up to alert users when they get a comment in their blog posts?

Also, is there a way to change the color of the font "You have 3 unread posts" when there are unread posts, but normal when there are no unread posts?

I want the blog feature too and not sure but Paul is there a way to add this to the nacbar or make it a tab or overwrite the current tab to put the number of unread post by What's New? Great mod but just kind of ugly where it lays right now.

No, this is designed purely for forum posts. ATM, I have no plans to extend that. TBH, I cant see how it would be displayed either, it would stat to get quite crowded and complicated (Blogs, Social Groups, Articles ......).

You could edit the phrases to include color html.

Thanks for getting this released again.

not sure if this was by design, but adding forums to exclude in this product also seems to be excluding them from showing up when you click on the "what's new" button, which I love because now I don't have to figure out how to edit the search templates.

That is by design.
