"What's New?" tab

Is there a way to sort the What's New? posts by forums? This is the only thing I don't like about the changes with the boards. I miss things because I have to look thru all the new posts, most of which I don't need to see (same as on Facebook, email, etc) again. Thanks!

What I do is I click the NEW POSTS button, just below What's New. That looks more compact and doesn't have "so and so replied to XYZ thread" listed. If any one has posted or replied, the posts show up for me there.
