- Added 'panelDisplayLocation' option to choose where to show the subscription form - Manage malformed email (it crashed EPL) - Brought back popup form to subscribe (with the new options + unsubscription) - Popup form is a copy of the form in mysettings menu, so no more 2 html codes in 2 different places - On unsubscription, only remove the email from "globalAuthor" row if the email is the same. - Put all css styles in css file - Some cleaning
