XF 2.0 New posts sidebar?

[Mr Lucky]

I have a list of widgets with the position New Posts Sidebar, however I see no sidebar in new posts.

How do I get the sidebar to show?

By default, you won't see that page. But if you set the forums default page to "New posts", then it will appear (with those widgets) whenever you click on the "Forums" tab.

OK, but how do we get it to show if the forums default page is forum list?

 

[Chris D]

You don't.

It's a significant page if it's set as the default page, but otherwise we just link to https://xenforo.com/community/whats-new/posts/

Note that we used to have it available all the time (people called it the "third navigation bar" ) but there were many claims that it was confusing and duplicative, so it only exists now if it is set as the default page.
