I first tried to overwrite when I input the xml... put in the code for rules, and it's still the wrong code. So I uninstalled the template all together, and reinstalled, and it's still the wrong code. Am I doing something incorrectly? Do I need to uninstall the original mod as well?

Ignore this. I had to go and do a revert on the forumhome_welcomepanel template in order to wipe out previous revisions.

Nice one... and I was going to go slap myself saying "Did I really forget to update the template AGAIN!"... But I modified it in MASTER TEMPLATE so it should have exported.

I've managed to figure it out - and also added the ability to change posts to post/threads to thread if there is only 1 new of either, if there's 2 or more, it shows posts/threads - as it stands there's a new plugin, 1 template change and a phrase update - I can post this all here, but it does require manual changing of the template and phrase.

If you send me the post/thread information in a PM I can include it by default in 3.0.5! You'll even get credit.

I received the code and modified how it needs installed, and the actual code. Thanks again steadicamop!

3.0.5 might include a new feature or two!

I have currently got a beta v3.0.5 with general features I want (that doesn't include the major features that I want) and hopefully can get it released soon.

Also, If anyone would like to develop a different design for the panel (moving things around and such), please do and submit it here and it might appear in a version.

I'm having really high queries (over 100) for users who have not logged-in in a long time. However, for daily users and guests the queries are fine. Any ideas why this is happening?

Queries really shouldn't be added for guests, since this doesn't show for guests.

I'm not sure what would cause this... Maybe some stray while() in ZT's plugin? I'll look into it.

i like that

Looks much better with the border="0" added after the images in the template :)

Thanks, I'll take that into consideration for v3.0.5!
