Actually, New Posts is under the Forum tab, too.
Anyway, a few things:
1. Your username and My Profile links both take you to the same place. May I suggest commenting out the My Profile link in the header template?
Code:
<li><a href="{vb:link member, {vb:raw bbuserinfo}}">{vb:rawphrase your_profile}</a></li>
Change to:
Code:
<vb:comment><li><a href="{vb:link member, {vb:raw bbuserinfo}}">{vb:rawphrase your_profile}</a></li></vb:comment>
2. I find the "last visited" thing useful, and for some reason it was commented out in vB4. Back again in the header template, just find this and remove the <vb:comment> tags.
Code:
<vb:comment><p>{vb:rawphrase last_visited_x_at_y, {vb:raw pmbox.lastvisitdate}, {vb:raw pmbox.lastvisittime}}</p></vb:comment>
3. Can we have the forum as the default page?
Admin CP > Settings > Navigation Manager
Click the dropdown menu on Forum and choose Set Default.
4. Can we have the vertical (legacy) postbit? The horizontal one looks fine on vB3, but not vB4.
Admin CP > Settings > Options > Style & Language Settings > Use Vertical (Legacy) Postbit
Finally, I'm great at basic styling, so I'd be more than happy to make a style with the color scheme of vB3 vBAdvanced.
