Are you reasonably comfortable with PHP?

Interesting. Perhaps @ghost1227 could lend some thoughts.

Yep, that's the problem. That should be changed to "stylesheet_directory"

I'm not interested in making a UI and keeping it only for my subscribers. That tutorial just happened to build a UI :) I'm not quite sure how to do...

A separate class sounds like the way to go to me. I could even see the UI getting placed into a plugin hosted on .org so people can simply activate...

It only fails if using front-page.php without an actual page created and set as show on front, correct?

Can you elaborate?

Do you mean the global dashboard metabox, or a meta box that is specific to each forum?

Got it. I think it should go in the right column under Users and Moderation.
