There was a new thread tab on the main forum page before, is there something similar on the new set up?

Is that it?
 
I'm guessing you're referring to the "Create a Thread" button we had on the old version. It's on individual forum index pages and on the New Posts search results page, but not currently on the main forum index page. I imagine it could be added, but that's a question for arn once he gets back online. He had a long day yesterday. :)

Not "create a thread", but the button to view new threads created by anyone.
 
The button I am referring to was next to the "Trending Threads" button and "New Posts" button on the old main forum page.

It was nice to see all the new threads in all the sub-forums in one location, instead of having to go into each sub-forum to see new threads.

Keep in mind that I do not mean new posts to existing threads, but brand new threads.

EDIT: Actually, I do not think that there was a "New Posts" button, it was the "Forum List" button. So. Forum List, Trending Threads, and New Threads. Now, it just says Trending Threads and Forum List.

Here is a screen shot showing where the button used to be, but I think it was actually in between Trending and Forum List:

It’s not here yet but we are revamping the front index.
I am curious if the "New Threads" tab is not longer going to happen?

I noticed that a "New Posts" tab was added recently next to the "Forum" and "Trending" tabs, and right where "New Threads" used to be.

But, they are very different things.
