I have the forum as my startpage. Problem is I have "recent topics" above the forum when I want them below the forum how do I change this?

Cheers

mickbriz,

The order a module appears on a page is determined by setting the weight of the module in blocks administration. In the weight colum number the forum 1 and recent topics 2. You will find the blocks admin in the control panel under system admin block.

Don't forget to hit the submit button at the bottom of the Blocks Administration page after making changes.

Make sense?

Yes it does make sense, but there is no forum in the forum blocks to select and my friendfinder module seems to have dissapeared too.

If I make my forum the start page under admin-preference I cant select 1 or 2 for it here either..

Why do blocks always appear above the content of a module?

One way round this is to try and put your module content in a block that will allow more flexible positioning

Ok the forum is a module, so how would I make this into a block?

mickbriz,

I was pointing out how to change the order that blocks appear on a page. You do that in Control Panel Home using the system admin block/ blocks admin. I misunderstood what you were asking. I am going to take another stab at an answer but later. I want reason out my response before I stick my other foot in my mouth
