What's Mods?
This hack adds the latest 'x' Posts (newthread, Replies, attachment threads, Tags threads, prefix threads, viewing thread) to your forumhome.
The original idea was nanoentities but he will not be releasing his hack for vB3.7. Basically this is the same idea, all new coding, all new templates.
This hack also shows the icons new last post on the thread was posted after your lastvisit or marking all forums as read. can be set to exclude forums.
I am currently working on a seperate page where the user can set the number of stats he wishes to show.
Instructions
1) Import the product through your admincp by going "Manage Products" > "[Add/Import Product]". If you have already installed this plugin then select "Yes" for "Allow Overwrite".
2) In your FORUMHOME template find:
<!-- end what's going on box -->
OR
<!-- Main -->
And after it add:
<if condition="$show['latestXpost']">
$latestXposts
</if>
Sorry, in my bad English

I have old version it works well on 3.7.2 :)
But would be very nice if someone would hack to AJAX, so latest posts would auto refresh withouth page-refreshing.

Hey everyone,
I just attempted to get this working and also had a minor issue getting it to show up.
After viewing the .xml product, I noticed the OP has a typo in his instructions.
When modifying your template, make sure to use the variable $latestXposts
Mine looks like this:
<if condition="$show['latestXpost']">
$latestXposts
</if>
I did not modify the latestXpost name in the if condition. Seems to work fine...!?

Here is my modifed latestXposts template file:
<br />
<table class="tborder" cellpadding="$stylevar[cellpadding]" cellspacing="$stylevar[cellspacing]" border="0" width="100%" align="center">
<thead>
<tr>
<td class="tcat" colspan="6">
<a style="float:$stylevar[right]" href="#top" onclick="return toggle_collapse('forumhome_statistics')"><img id="collapseimg_forumhome_statistics" src="$stylevar[imgdir_button]/collapse_tcat$vbcollapse[collapseimg_forumhome_statistics].gif" alt="" border="0" /></a>
<a href="topXstats.php$session[sessionurl_q]">$vbphrase[statistics]<phrase 1="$displayrecords">$vbphrase[top_x]</phrase></a></td>
</tr>
</thead>
<tbody id="collapseobj_forumhome_statistics" style="$vbcollapse[collapseobj_forumhome_statistics]">
<TR>
<TD class=thead noWrap>Thread</TD>
<TD class=thead noWrap>Forum</TD>
<TD class=thead noWrap>User Name</TD>
<TD class=thead noWrap>Date / Time</TD>
<TD class=thead noWrap align=right>Replies</TD>
<TD class=thead noWrap align=right>Views</TD>
</TR>
$latestXposts_bits
</tbody>
</table>
<br />
<br />
I removed a couple tags and my Ultimate Side Column 2.2 now works with this mod.

Hello guys here is the fix:
to get it to work import the xml file and than add this to your forumhome
<if condition="$show['latestXposts']">
$latestXposts
</if>
just after <!-- Main -->
