OK got this working now. Trick is to use the userchatting.tcl from the second .zip file attached to this thread and make this change (also from elsewhere in the thread):

Find:

bind join - "$i2h_chan %" i2h:make
bind part - "$i2h_chan %" i2h:make

and ADD BELOW

bind sign - "$i2h_chan %" i2h:make
bind topc - "$i2h_chan %" i2h:make
bind kick - "$i2h_chan %" i2h:make
bind nick - "$i2h_chan %" i2h:make
bind rejn - "$i2h_chan %" i2h:make

I installed eggdrop on my server and got it to dump the txt file of users in the forums directory so the changes to index.php are

replace:

eval("dooutput(\"".gettemplate('forumhome')."\");");

with:

if(file_exists('<homedir>/www/forums/chatuserlist.txt')) 
{
	$openfile = fopen ("<homedir>/www/forums/chatuserlist.txt", "r");
	while (!feof($openfile)) 
	{
		$chatters .= fgets($openfile, 4096);
	}
	fclose($openfile);
}

eval("dooutput(\"".gettemplate('forumhome')."\");");

In the forumhome template I simply added this

<smallfont>
<b>Chatroom Users: $chatters</b>
</smallfont>
<br>

Simple! Now I'm gonna try and remove the bot from my list of chatters.....
