In the ZIP install instructions...you forgot to add:

Varname: hottopics
Text: This Week's Hot Topics

Ah. I forgot Bob slipped that phrase in there. I should create it and add it to the product. Sorry about that.

Is there some way to combine that with your left column plugin, so I can have the latest threads in that column on all pages instead of forumhome?

I made the template edit, and imported the product, and it is listed in the product manager, but there is nothing on the forumhome where that box should be. Any ideas?
