You just go to the main menu where your homepage is, select the menu item, and mark it as default.

I took 30s to answer my own question, seraching in google! nice tip, in Joomla 1.5 its much more obvious. webrp Tue, 24 Jun 2008 08:35:17 +0100 http://www.dart-creations.com/joomla/joomla-tips-and-tricks/5-changing-the-default-frontpage.html#josc663 Is this for dummies? aguante Thu, 31 Jul 2008 08:42:20 +0100 http://www.dart-creations.com/joomla/joomla-tips-and-tricks/5-changing-the-default-frontpage.html#josc1103 For those of us who created a page in HTML (outside the Joomla CMS) and placed it in the root directly, how do I get it to display? In my case, lets call the page home.html. I have tried several menu options to point to the home.html page, with negative results. I can\'t use the article menu, as home.html does not exist in the DB. Is there a way to create a menu item that points to a handmade HTML page? Thanks for any suggestions, Ralph Ralph Tue, 23 Dec 2008 10:28:16 +0100 http://www.dart-creations.com/joomla/joomla-tips-and-tricks/5-changing-the-default-frontpage.html#josc1104 Use a menu link which links to a URL and put the address of the page e.g. www.yourdomain.com/home.html DART Wed, 24 Dec 2008 01:02:55 +0100 http://www.dart-creations.com/joomla/joomla-tips-and-tricks/5-changing-the-default-frontpage.html#josc1231 Dart, Could you be a bit more specific on that last answer? I inherited a website with an html frontpage, and I can\'t figure out how the last person linked it to make it the front page. Which menu would contain the link? Mainmenu? I don\'t see it... Thanks in advance.

It can be easily identified because in Joomla 1.5 it has a star right next to it.

I\'m using Jooomla 1.5.9 and in the process of setting up a few things I deleted a few articles from the front page manager.... Bad move, apparently, because those were sitting in the Main Menu and were the Default. Now I am trying to set anything else to default but the button simply isn\'t there - has anyone else seen this behaviour? Thanks in advance. Seth Fraser Fri, 13 Feb 2009 11:20:32 +0100
