Hello. i have been using XOOPS for my site more than two years. my site is wargaming.sk . now i am trying to do some SEO optimizations and my biggest concern is how to remove the "/modules/news" from the main page url. that is because url wargaming.sk/ has google rank 4 and wargaming.sk/modules/news/ has google rank 2.
i see that xoops.org page has done this somehow.

XOOPS.org does not have a module set to display on the home page (Administration Menu > System Admin > Preferences > General Settings > Module for your start page: None )

After that you set up blocks under the system module. I use blocks on all of my sites, because of the SEO issue you mention.

Good Luck,

I'm curious, how does setting up blocks under the system module help with SEO? Are you referring to using a custom block for information on the home page? Does it really make that much of a difference? I don't have a module set to display on the home page so I guess I don't understand how it could affect SEO.
