ok, those "panels" are modules, and they are part of vBa CMPS.... which i assume your using, or have seen.
I dont know how to do it myself, but i know there is a way to display CMPS modules on your forumhome template, so look into how to do that and you might find your answer.
no thats the thing johnny, im not using vBa, they are part of the template im using.. that I know for sure.. thats why I need to figure out how to modify the template to show this panel at all times, without using vBa
