Thanks again, that definitely helps. I've been pining over the API all day, and either I'm senile, or can you not do direct template edits with plugins unless you're throwing a whole new section under the hook location?

For example, Paul M's Members Who Have Visited Today hack edits the forumhome template, and (albeit a LOT more complicated than what I'm trying to do) adds a section.

Is it not possible to have a plugin/product that directly edits templates in certain spots? I realize that what I'm doing is pretty pointless and is much easier to just edit in the template, but like I said I'm trying to use it as a stepping stone to bigger/more complex stuff. I've done a LOT of template work on my site, and I'd love to be able to share some of it as a simple product install.

Thanks very much once again, I really appreciate any advice/tips I can get.
