Fix "User Home" error
Due to the single mode hack used by Stellenbosch Library, the "USER HOME" link is wrong.

See: https://github.com/pkp/ojs/blob/ojs-2_4_7-1/templates/common/navbar.tpl#L17 or https://github.com/pkp/ojs/blob/ojs-2_4_8-1/templates/common/navbar.tpl#L17

After an upgrade, simply change "index" to "pub", save the file and restart the apache2 web server.
