on the main portal page?

I want to do away with the welcome block on the portal page consider there is a log-in box in the upper right of each page.

Thanks

Default Re: forum welcome block on portal page

In your adminCP, vBa CMPS section, edit pages you can de-activate the welcome block.

To put the welcome message on every page and not just forum home, what I did was move the script from the FORUMHOME template to the header template. I also setup new phrases and made the messages more friendly and usefull to people depending on their user status (guest, unconfirmed, 0 posts, no posts for 2 weeks).

Alternatively you could do 1 of 2 things depending on your needs.

1 - Create a new template with the welcome message in, create a new module with this template and you can select to show or not show this module in your vba pages in the edit pages section.

2 - create a new template with the welcome message in, in edit pages, enter the template name and save. This template will 'replace' the Custom Page Content module for that page.

Did you ever get this working? I'm trying to do this and having difficulty with having the links from the phrases pointing to the right places. I've tried adding $vboptions[bburl] to the front of the links w/o much success.

I took a different approach and just hard-coded mine into my navbar.

TomM: If you post the template you created I'm sure somebody can spot the problem.
