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.

There is a Patch a page or too back. It's because of missing { } around the date.

Sorry to bother but this works well on Harry Potter Chat but I cannot get it to show up on Technology Questions. I installed this on HPC months ago and cannot figure out why the install I'm trying today on TQ doesn't show. Where in the templates do I look to figure out where and how this is to show? I've read through the posts from other people but do not see a solution or answer to the direct question. Maybe the template being used is so tweaked that a manual install is best.
Thank you for this excellent mod and I look forward to a solution.
My compliments, everything works fine except Activate Plural Checking. I've checked this just to try but it's useless for me since I'm in Italy, so I unchecked it.
Problem is that the mod keep adding th "s" after the words.

How can I disable it definitely?
The check for plural is used so that if it is 5 posts, it says posts. But if it is 1 post, it doesn't say 1 posts. And I think editing the prhase and removing some of the {} can get rid of it. I don't know off the top of my head.

Thanks again
What do you mean the characters? And you could use the Style Manager to add CSS to this mod.
