    Is there a way or a code or something i can do to only make the forum widgets visible on the main page and not when viewing a category or a forum?

    Hello,

    Do you mean a portal? If so, to activate the portal go to Admin Panel > Modules > Portal.

    What is your main page? Is your main page your Index page or your Portal Page?

    Please be more specific with what you want to achieve.

    no, i dont have a portal.

    what else do i need to be more specific about. if u know what a forum widget it than, that is as specific as it gets. u know they appear on every page, not just the index, but all. and what im asking is if i can get it to ONLY appear on the index (main forum) page, and not any of the others, such as categories and forums. which im sure you know what a category and forum is too.

    Right, that's much better and more descriptive. There is no way you can do this. Forum widgets appear on all pages of your forum, including the forums and the threads. The only thing I can suggest is you try to, if you can, add the widget code to the the Homepage message.

    There's no need for the wise a** remarks either, thank you very much

    Unfortunately that is not entirely correct. Razz

    There is a way to hide them everywhere but on the index if your forum is in version phpBB3. Please read this topic: [LINK]. Wink

    Silly me. I never knew it could be done using phpBB3. Sorry for my inconvenience. Embarassed

    Edit (Sunny) : Not a problem. I had actually quite a hard time myself finding that post again. Forgot to update the FAQ. Razz
