Forum-Subforum Post Count

[webhost]

I have a forum with 7 subforums. I have made them invisible because I could not get the color scheme right to match the board because of getting the last thread hack to work with subforums. I didn't want to show all of these sub-forums on the opening page. So like I said I made them invisible. Then in the forumhome template I placed a table to place the link for the hidden sub forums. That way it only takes up one space on the board. This table has the same look as the rest of the board. Same heading color same forum look, and I have a link in it called Latest News Here. When you click it, the 7 subforums open up which shows total threads and total posts in each column for each sub-forum. What I want to do is add all of those subforum posts counts up and display that number on the opening page in the table I have created with the link called Latest News Here, right beside it.
Go to my forums in my signature and look for this at the bottom.
