Description:
This hack replaces the box on top of the postbit in the index page with a snazzy panel with stats, new posts and PMs. When you go to view a different page, the box on top of the navbar changes into the default navigation/breadcrumb box.

Changelog:
V1.3 - Added 2 new texts, one under Forum Stats and one under Your Info:
Your Posts, which displays your total # of posts and the %
of the total forum's posts it is.
Active Members, this basically is the same stat as the one
in the bottom of the What's Going On? Panel.

V1.2 - Updated it for vB 3.5.x! Enjoy! Note also that since I do not have
the vBA portal anymore, I cannot be certain how to update that
coding as well, sorry! =(
I also fixed a few minor security bugs and avatar paths,
And made it work with the plugin system! Have fun!

V1.1 - Changed file edit to global.php for tidier code.
Added file and new template edits for VbAdvanced CMPS
So the welcome panel will work on CMPS.

V1.0 - Welcome Panel Hack RELEASED!

Installation Time:
