    What I mean is, when people first load the website, it Takes them to a news page instead of the forum?
    Kinda like this site , you have to click on the navbar to go to the forums, the first page is just news.
    Thanks!

    I think that's the homepage, you can also create it through HTML

    I have it set "Your forum redirects to: Portal" but that doesn't seem to work.

    do you have your portal on. it should redirect by setting it as your home page.

    Admin panel>display>Generalities

    right at the top of the page check off portal and hit save.
