What do I have to do to have a welcome message like the block "Welcome to XOOPS official website!" on XOOPS site? I looked in everything under news but i did not find any way of doing that. I know that "News" module is set to display when the site is opened but I could not find anything in News . Is it customization or is available in standard install

This is more simple that you really think!

go to the blocks admin

make a custom Center-Center block.

can be html, or automatic, put the title and the content and save.

Later go to admin groups, and set the permission for each group can see this new block and ...... it's all.

Oh! Thanks for the quick reply. I had already done that. I was thinking there was some other nifty little thing in the news module .

OK. After searching forum for "welcome block", I got the way to issue that. However, I don't want to assign the administration access right of [block] and [group] to whom work for issuing announcement/public notice/welcome.

Is there any module built/download to provide the way to do so?

I had done like prahalad... But in the home page I get first the Recent News and then the Welcome message. How can I get first the Welcome Message?

Thanks

You'll have to create a one-block module. Check out jan304's Sample Module (http://www.jan304.org) and dive into the code.

All you need to know about to change is the WEIGHT. You may find the answer in this link

If you want more, search 'welcome block' in forum. There will be a lot.

There is a thick bar with an X in it above the block that I created on the front page. How would I get rid of that?

I'm using the X2 theme with version 2.0.6
