Is your forum in a sub-directory? If so you can re-direct yourdomain.com to yourdomain.com/community/portal or wherever it is. You need to do a 301 re-direct. You can do this through cpanel or manually edit your .htaccess file just google 301 re-directs for htaccess. Hope this helpsI just installed XenPorta and was wondering how I make its "Home" the default page users see when they visit my site?

Currently XenForo is installed on the root of the domain. Would there be a way to do it with that way of setting it up?
I dont think so, because a 301 re-directin your domain root would point domain.com to domain.com/portal. The rule is all traffic at domain.com goes to domain.com/portal which means basically the portal is the only thing you will be able to access. Its actually very easy to put the forum into a sub directory. You can create one, move all the XF files over to it then change your board URL in adminCP and youre done. Then you can create the re-direct from your root
One way to do it is to add this line to your .htaccess: DirectoryIndex home.php index.php index.htm index.htmlI just installed XenPorta and was wondering how I make its "Home" the default page users see when they visit my site?
It looks like you havent set up the permissions correctly. You should have a tab that says 'modules' in the XenPorta 'home' tab when the permissions are setup right. Can you double check this is all ok?Sorry for the messy looking post above, I didnt think it would display like that.
Yes, you have Administrators set to GREEN...Thanks for the quick reply, no I dont get the modules tab in the home tab for ZenPorta. By permissions I would presume that you mean inside of XenForo such as the grey, green and red permission things for users, usergroups etc. As I have shown in the image above I checked in every permission section I could find and set all into the green section including the XenPorta (Portal) section of permissions.
What do you mean?Jaxel is there a way enlarge the image (Recent Threads) center it and get rid of the content ? Thanks.
I take it he wants the latest thread module to go by the users avatar(larger and center) and not display the thread content in the module.What do you mean?
Thanks, im very happy with how my site turned out, and i recommend you take a look at my site and change the theme to flexile dark(work in progress still)... looks very good, you might like it also.. You should to be able to get it working with what Jaxel mentioned above. If not im more then happy to have a look for you if youd like, let us know how you went.Thanks for the quick reply, no I dont get the modules tab in the home tab for ZenPorta.

I like your site by the way and is very very similar to what I am hoping to end up with. I can look at the friendly URL's for sure.
As an edit to this, I just checked my database and it show that there are some EWR entries at the very top of the list. So something is there. I looked through some of the sections in the database but found no trace of portals nor modules. LOL, not even sure if there are any there to be found.
Thanks
What do you mean?
You could, but it would probably be better to write your own module, rather than edit the existing one.The latest thread module pulls the first picture of a thread and the message content which you can truncate. I don't want to show the message content, just the first picture, larger and centered. Hope this explains it better.
