Description:
This hack replaces the box on top of the postbit in the index page with a snazzy panel with stats, new posts and PMs. When you go to view a different page, the box on top of the navbar changes into the default navigation/breadcrumb box.
Changelog:
V1.3 - Added 2 new texts, one under Forum Stats and one under Your Info:
Your Posts, which displays your total # of posts and the %
of the total forum's posts it is.
Active Members, this basically is the same stat as the one
in the bottom of the What's Going On? Panel.
V1.2 - Updated it for vB 3.5.x! Enjoy! Note also that since I do not have
the vBA portal anymore, I cannot be certain how to update that
coding as well, sorry! =(
I also fixed a few minor security bugs and avatar paths,
And made it work with the plugin system! Have fun!
V1.1 - Changed file edit to global.php for tidier code.
Added file and new template edits for VbAdvanced CMPS
So the welcome panel will work on CMPS.
V1.0 - Welcome Panel Hack RELEASED!

Why?
Methinks Smash didn't update the hack with that fix yet.
Right now, it queries the post table, and generates the postcount based on the # of posts that are tagged with the user's ID. The postcount used in the postbit queries the actual postcount column in the user table. I thought he'd updated the hack here though, guess not. Anyways, I informed him of the problem for you.
Replace the relevant coding lines in the plugin XML:
Code:
$vbulletin->userinfo['yourposts'] = $db->query_first("select posts as your_posts from ".TABLE_PREFIX."user where userid = {$vbulletin->userinfo['userid']}");
$vbulletin->userinfo['yourposts'] = vb_number_format($vbulletin->userinfo['yourposts']['your_posts']);
Warning: Division by zero in /index.php(62) : eval()'d code on line 24
Get this too, disabling plugin gets rid of it but i done everything in the instructions by the letter, i looked ta index.php and found this
Code:
// get special data templates from the datastore
$specialtemplates = array(
'userstats',
'birthdaycache',
'maxloggedin',
'iconcache',
'eventcache',
'mailqueue'
Thats line 23/24+
So i removed line 24 witch was the 'userstats' and still got the error.
Silly question, is says works with 3.5.x but has it been tested and works on 3.5.4 as i had to do a little extra editing to remove the bottom stats than the instructions told me (Didnt cause the error i reverted it after to check)
