Introduction:

When I first installed Zero Tolerence's Welcome Panel, I found that it had a lot of mistakes on my computer. I set out to make a new template for the hack - and I succeeded. This template is my rewrite of Zero Tolerence's hack.

This Hack Made Possible By Zero Tolerance

Please Remove Zero Tolerance's Plugins When Upgrading from a Previous Version!

Hack Requirements:
This hack has one requirement:
  1. vBulletin v3.6.0 or higher. (Confirmed working with vB 3.7.0 RC1)
Installation

Installation is a breeze! Follow these simple steps:
  1. Upload Files into folders.
  2. Install Welcome Panel Product
  3. Customize!
Yes, it's that simple.

What was the database error. I believe there was a patch released for a DB error. The patch was integrated into v3.0.6, but that's no where near ready.

Hey, I have installed the hack and it all works fine, I was wondering if there is a code to choose where you want to place the info on the page because I have vB shout installed at the top aswell and the Welcome Panel Template is above the shoutbox. I was wondering wether there might be a code so it can be changed in tyhe admin panel to places like below forums or below whats going on, thanks for your help if you can look into this

The way the plugin works is it attaches itself to the $navbar variable. If you find another variable to attach it to and modify the plugin is the only way to do it.

I've never done it but you would have to find a variable in near the very top of the FORUMHOME template (or add one where you want it) and edit the Main plugin.

How many queries does this add to main Page ?

Database error in vBulletin 3.6.8:

Invalid SQL:
SELECT COUNT(*) AS newposts FROM post WHERE dateline >= 07:39 PM, 07-29-2007 AND visible = 1;

MySQL Error : You have an error in your SQL syntax; check the manual that corresponds to your MySQL server version for the right syntax to use near ':39 PM, 07-29-2007 AND visible = 1' at line 1
Error Number : 1064
Date : ***************
Script : **************
Referrer : ****************************
IP Address : ****************
Username : ***********
Classname : ****************

so cause of the error have to disable it to find a fix but i really need to know how many queries this adds on forumhome.
