Using a Different Feature

Tiki is very flexible. You can use any of the features you enabled as your site's home page. For example, maybe you want your site's home page to display the news items (the articles) instead of a wiki page.

  1. From the Admin menu, click Admin home.

     Tip

    You can also access the Administration home page by using the {div type="span" class='icon icon-cog fa fa-cog fa-fw "} Control Panelslink in the Quick Admin area.
  2. From the Administration page, click General .

     Tip

    You can also access the Administration page by typing http://www.yourdomain.com/tiki-admin.php?page=general in your web browser.
  3. On the General control panel page, click the Navigation tab.
  4. On the Navigation tab, in the Home Page area, use the Use Tiki feature as homepage field to select Articles.
    General Preferences area.
  5. Click Apply. Tiki saves the information and reloads the page.


Now log out. Tiki displays your site's home page by default: the Articles home page.

 Tip

Use the Title of Articles home page option on the Admin: Articles page to specify the page's heading: Articles, the specific Topic, or the specifc Type.

 Note

Be sure to give the Anonymous group permission to view the feature that you selected to use as the Home Page. If not, visitors will receive an error when they try to access your home page.



But what if you want to use a page or feature not created by Tiki...
