How to make site front page?

Like can you make a front page? no forums. like proper front page where it says what forum about and all. Plz tell me how to do it. I got widgets up but then there is empty gap in middle I want a front page telling what site about

HTML coding

You have a couple of options to make your board index not your homepage. You could either set an HTML Page as your homepage, or create a Forum Portal. But unless you have experience in coding, I think a Portal might serve you better, as well as being a little more interactive.

Anyway, you can set up a portal this way:

Admin Panel > Modules > Portal Management

It should ask you if you want to activate the portal. Click yes, and then you should be able to set it up.
You can drag widgets in there, as we as describing/alert your members of new updates with the "News" widget. Goodluck!
