<!-- logo -->
<a name="top"></a>
<table border="0" width="$stylevar[outertablewidth]" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" align="center">
<tr>
	<td align="$stylevar[left]"><a href="$vboptions[forumhome].php$session[sessionurl_q]"><img src="$stylevar[titleimage]" border="0" alt="$vboptions[bbtitle]" /></a></td>
	<td align="$stylevar[right]">
		&nbsp;
	</td>
</tr>
</table>
<!-- /logo -->

After it,add these codes after it

Code:

    <table width="$stylevar[outertablewidth]" border="0" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" align="center">
    	<tr>

    	<td width="150" valign="top" class="page" style="padding: $stylevar[cellpadding]px;">



<!-- ################## Side Column ##################-->
<table border="0" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" width="100%" align="center">

<div class="smallfont" style="line-height:1.5;"><strong>Forum Members: $numbermembers<br />

that'll not be possible with template edits.you'll need to create a plug-in to pull the latest threads and polls to place at forumhome and it'll add extra queries.anyway,i think there's a mod already that allows you to display latest threads on forumhome.
