Here is what I had to add the forum home templete to get the Whats going on to appear.
Found and removed everything after the <--------Whats going on -------->
replace with the following:
<div id="wgo" class="collapse wgo_block block">
<h2 class="blockhead">{vb:rawphrase whats_going_on}</h2>
<div class="blockbody formcontrols floatcontainer">
{vb:raw template_hook.forumhome_wgo_pos1}

<div>
