I just read an upcoming version will make statistics a module....until then how can i make the scrolling statistics at the bottom of the forum module appear like on my main page? I hate having to log in, click forums and scroll to the bottom to see this. I'd like this to scroll on the main page of my portal.

Doable before the next release of Forum?

It's definitely doable, i've done it for the new release. As for steps involved, its somewhat simple but does require an understanding of development, use of visual studio 2003 and time spent learning the forum code (you would need to review the ForumGroup.vb located in the Components\Groups\ folder). Comment out code for statistics area, copy into new module. Make adjustments as necessary.
