Remove the StatusUpdates block from any layouts that are using it.How do I disable the status updates from showing on the sidebar?
You'll find what you're looking for under XenPorta > Blocks > RecentNews.
Then just ensure the RecentNews block is added to the portal layout.
Like I previously said, under your ACP look in XenPorta > Blocks and you'll see a list of installed blocks:I have it setup like this, but where do I go to set which forum I want to be the "recentnews" forum? Since this block isn't talking to anything, XenPorta cannot populate anything on the page. Should there be an option in the settings somewhere?
Under ACP > Basic Board Information:
- Index Page Route: portal/
- Home Page URL: leave blank
- Link Logo to Home Page URL: checked
Don't worry about Route Filters.
I'm guessing you did not install xenForo in your web root directory, but inside your forums/ directory?
I highly recommend you move the installation out of the "forums" directory and into the root. While I've not done this before, I think you can just move (drag) everything up a level then remove the empty "forums" directory when you're done.
Always backup before you do these things just be sure you don't lose anything valuable in the process.
The result is that the portal portal now shows as the root domain (forgehaven.com) which is great! ...but the forums are now unaccessible because forgehaven.com/forums/ still shows the above message. What is the next step to get this fixed?Under ACP > Basic Board Information:
