Just click on "Today's Active Topics" on the main page! You can also see Topics with No Replies and Hot Topics from this link as well.

Hi Eva-

Thanks for pointing that out... actually those are onld links to my *cough* UBB active topics list. I am still working on active topics for this board. Actually I really like what you did with your forum's homepage and was thinking about doing something similar here

yeah... now i am considering lightening up that front page cause it does load kind of slowly.... just sent a support request to see if my host can do a free upgrade of php4.02 and install the zend optimser on my server...

Hi Eva-

You're running RedHat right? If you would like, I could help you install the PHP upgrade if Rackspace won't do it free of charge. Just let me know

Also, I noticed that a few of those PHP includes are using on that front page have inefficent MySQL queries, I started to play around with optimizing a few of them before implementing them over here... I'll post the code changes over on the vBulletin forums when I am finished.
