To patch the forumhome display so that it includes a header list of new, hot or 
random entries, edit your FORUMHOME template to reference the variables $links['new'], $links['random'] 
and $links['hot'] and install the forumhome-thumbs-plugin.xml plugin (which is hooked to forumhome_start).

The accompanying vb36-FORUMHOME.txt contains a sample template modification.  The
contents should be inserted immediately before the line

<!-- main -->

in the forumhome template. 

Optional: links_vbalinks.txt contains a modified links_vbalinks template which 
adds the entry descriptions as well as the title and hits.
