The discussion revolves around setting the homepage to the Categories page on a newly installed forum. halfoyster wants to change the default landing page from ‘Latest’ to ‘Categories’. Ivan_Rapekas initially suggests rerunning the setup wizard, which halfoyster clarifies is not what they meant. JammyDodger directs to the styling page in the wizard (/wizard/steps/styling) to adjust the layout. Ivan_Rapekas confirms that the ‘Categories and Latest Topics’ layout can be set as default by completing the setup wizard up to step #7, selecting the homepage style, and finishing. For personal preference, users can set their default home page view in their profile settings Ivan_Rapekas.
Hello, just rerun wizard https://yourforum.example.com/wizard. It is safe, all other settings will be kept.
Thanks for the response. I think you’ve misunderstood me. The landing page goes to “Latest” but I would like it to be “Categories”. I have seen it on community.monzo.com.
Hope this helps.
It’s in the set-up wizard, on the styling page. I think you can nip in straight to the styling page and save it from there:
[YourSite]/wizard/steps/styling
The layout at forum by link provided is called Categories and Latest Topics.
To set this layout as default for all new users you need to run setup wizard in web browser again, on your forum:
Just click few times Next until you reach the step #7. Then choose homepage style and click Finish.
You may need to clean refresh the page with CTRL+F5.
If you want to set your personal choice, then choose default home page view in your profile:
