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.

You don't have to technically delete Zero's template, just overwrite with this one, otherwise you can just upload this .xml file, check the box for overwrite allowed then it should do just fine.

Does anyone find this makes a significant slow page opening for your forum home?

Gottcha: Maybe I am misunderstanding what your problem is. Are you wanting to get rid of the hack altogether or what?

jellybaby: This doesn't slow down page opening, that is caused from the amount of plugins you have installed. Thats what slows down page opening.

when you remove the old hack, all you have to do is get rid of the template and upload this one. Since zero's template was manually added [revert] in style manager should do the trick.

This looks EXACTLY like what I need. Any new ETA on version 2.3?? I'm eagerly waiting so I don't have to mess around with zt's plugin.

No. I'm having trouble with plugins so it won't be out for a while. Just install his plugins and I'll have detailed instructions on upgrading.

Yayayay! All I had to do was remove some of the old navbar content because I didn't want the info twice. Thanks a lot!
