Thoughts on the new activity stream in the updated vbulletin?
Sorry but I don't like it. The front page is gone!
What is the activity stream supposed to do that new posts doesn't? I guess I don't understand the purpose.
So the page Titled "Front page" is no longer at the front? Maybe an Activity Stream in an embedded, scrollable window on the Front page would have been OK. But to move the Front page for this?
Again, sorry BOK but I like it even less now, but I'm only one person. Maybe others will think its cool.
When I click on the "What's New?" tab I'm sent to Activity stream Screen. That supposed to happen? Are they one in the same? I don't mind it but do want our Front Page back tab. Thanks Bok.
:p Well, you are so lucky. I was thrown to the midlle of a herd of Lions. :D

Sorry bad joke ... :o
Yes, it appears to go to that screen and then presents the links for all the individual 'what's new' content underneath those main tabs.

Perhaps 'Home' there is the same thing. Isn't the 'Articles' tab just renamed from Front Page perhaps? It's likely possible to rename it if so.
Clicking 'Articles give me the 'Front Page' page! Ymmv!
