If you want the news module to be your start page, you need to go into your preferences in the drop down menu and select News where it asks:

Module for your start page

You can also use blocks to show content from your news module.
Do a search first if you need help with that.

Bandit-X has a pre-release of xmspotlight 1.02 that allows you to achieve that layout. You can do a search here or visit XoopsGroups.

@ mesol

Perhaps you should start a new thread, this really doesn't apply to the "newbb as start page" problem you are having.

Give us your Xoops, PHP, MySQL, and newbb versions. Any recent changes? Have you turned on PHP-Debug as described in this very helpful FAQ?.

Someone will be able to help you more if you provide detailed information
