Take out the file edit.
Make a new plugin to "forumhome_complete" and add your own hook location in the 'code' box.

[vegeta_99]

the file who generate forum and foruminfo on forumhome is function_forumlist.php and not index.php .
The hook "forumhome_complete" can't use consequetly

Can set a color for each usergroup? a sort of legend on your index?
