Updates To Existing Plugins and Themes

When a user unsubscribed from a FORUM, all other users subscribed to that forum were also unsubscribed.

Most users do not subscribe to all forum topics which is why most users never noticed this issue.

Added glossary link
Added OPTIONS link in the plugins screen
