I was wondering if you have seen the test site I'm using to integrate a "front page" with the forums? Just in case not, here is the URL:
http://www.chattersonline.com/testI do plan on a downloads section but I will not be able to track the number of actual downloads without an external flat file database. This should be good enough for any site that's not a "download" site but just wants to keep track of any file attachments popularity.
The User List is the Members List. I don't see much of a reason to modify what's there. []

There are statistics that are recorded already but I think your speaking of things such as referers, browser versions, hits, paths, hourly, daily, weekly, monthly and yearly charts and things of that nature. This is a bit beyond the scope of what I am trying to do but somewhere down the road I would like this myself... []

I will be including a "submit news" link for others to submit their articles to a board and depending on the boards settings, wait for approval before they are displayed. The news section already displays news articles posted in the "news board" to the front page so it's just a matter of providing a link to the newpost.php script for that board.
I was working on a "Latest Threads" hack but earlier today noticed that there was one... I think, by MattyJ. I didn't get a change to look at it, just seen the post listed. This is also just another way of displaying what's already been added to the forums.
A lot of the things I'm trying to do involve trying to use what is already there, for the most part. Once I think I have done all that there can be with what's there I'll look into creating some more in depth addons. []
