Move forum stats to sidebar on all pages?

[himerus]

I've got a sidebar setup, and I had the stats working properly if the code was in the FORUMHOME template....

I have needed now to move the code to the FOOTER template to have it on every page....

I realize that it probably is because the


<b>$vbphrase[threads]:</b> $totalthreads,<br />
<b>$vbphrase[posts]:</b> $totalposts,<br />
<b>$vbphrase[members]:</b> $numbermembers<br />


variables aren't declared global...

I tried to hook those in with a global statement in a plugin, but I'm new to the plugin system, and I'm having an issue accomplishing this... and I'm sure it's really easy, but I haven't used vB since 3.0.3, and learning the plugin system is just going to take me some fooling around...

Can anyone help me on this one??!!

Thanks in advance...

You may have to make a new plugin and just make it global or cache and then add the code. Maybe if i have time i will make one for you, but i beleive there is a hack / addon for this already.
