Hi everyone,

For anyone running a IPB 2.1 with the new RSS import function, you will find that when you click on "view new posts" or "Today's active topics" all of the RSS feed results (which might outnumber real posts 100 to 1) will be displayed.
THIS IS VERY BAD!

However, IPB comes to the rescue with the following (hard to find) setting:

Admin CP > Tools & Settings > View All General Settings > Search Set-Up > View New Posts: Block Forums.
