XF 2.0 How to Create a Home page?

[Fastline]

I would like to have a home page featuring the selected threads, news, announcements and sliding posts.
The forums will be completely different.
Any idea to do that?
By default, even when clicking on Home, it goes to forum.
I'm using XF 2.0.x

You can create a basic home page with widgets

Use the New threads widget and add the widget in the template of your page.
If you want to show threads from a specific forum you can go to admin.php?widgets/ and create a new widget with the desired parameters.

Can you explain it more clearly? I'm noob here.

click on forums in admin tab then press nodes -> add node ->node type "page" -> fill in info as normal -> add something like this into html section

<xf:h1 hidden="true" />

<xf:widget key="home_portal"/>
<xf:widget key="Poll" position="sidebar"/>
<xf:widget key="forum_overview_new_posts" position="sidebar"/>
<xf:widget key="forum_overview_members_online" position="sidebar"/>
<xf:widget key="forum_overview_forum_statistics"/>

    


<xf:css>
.p-breadcrumbs {
display:none
}</xf:css>
