Alan Woo  - This home menu is missing in 1   |203.20.35.xxx |2008-05-01 05:58:02 This home menu is missing in 1.5.3, any new methods on fixing this.

DART Creations  - 153 - missing home   |85.232.196.xxx |2008-05-03 08:45:04 Hi Alan, I tested an install of Joomla 1.5.3 and it looks like the Home link in the Main Menu is still there.

Ray  - YES!   |205.247.234.xxx |2008-05-15 10:38:32 Holy cow, I've been looking for this thing for about 90 minutes now on a new install. I knew right where it was in 1.0, but could not imagine where it was "hidden" in 1.5. Thank you!

master3d  - Made my day   |213.250.137.xxx |2008-05-19 16:06:01 Definitely you made my day!! thanks M

Cool  - Cool   |122.167.91.xxx |2008-05-25 04:50:00 Great info and excelling site. Going to be a regular visitor

luvulongtime  - thx   |66.82.9.xxx |2008-05-30 03:25:50 Thank u!!!

kard  - great   |125.162.41.xxx |2008-05-30 06:16:01 hmm...not bad..

Marcelo Mig  - Now I got the point...   |201.92.150.xxx |2008-08-04 16:25:25 At first I thought like Alan Woo, that the Home Menu was missing in 1.5.3. But pay attention: there is a WRONG WAY: Menus --> Menus Manager --> Main Menu, that takes you to a screen like this: [http://docs.joomla.org/images/d/d4/ Screen_menu_m anager_new_15.png] ... and the RIGHT WAY, like described in the article, Menus --> Main Menu, that takes you to [http://docs.joomla.org/images/thumb/ 3/3f/Screen_ menu_item_manager_15.png/ 750px-Screen_menu_item_m anager_15.png] There you choose HOME and so on...

dattard  - Home menu   |Registered |2008-06-06 07:19:36 Glad this has been sorted out Marcello.

clara  - very cool   |84.91.36.xxx |2008-06-27 09:35:03 a big, huge ty! i was looking for it for 24hours lol! ty ty

Cesar  - awesome   |70.136.234.xxx |2008-07-02 21:10:03 sometimes you come across a google search page that brings tears of joy to your eyes. this tip was one of those.

sassafras  - omg   |66.65.114.xxx |2008-07-10 03:45:37 Thank you so much. that was driving me crazy.

Elmo  - help   |122.104.33.xxx |2008-07-12 08:48:56 Im using v 1.5 and this doesnt help...i have done all you have said to...driving me insane

CuriousG  - No go for me either   |190.10.64.xxx |2008-07-23 00:56:20 I have 1.5.4 installed and for some reason when I change the Page Title and set it to show and save. It does nothing. No difference. Why isnt Joomla saving this information? Still shows "Home" on my frontpage.

crissy  - this is great   |121.96.128.xxx |2008-07-26 03:08:57 absolutely what I am trying to found out since I used Joomla, awesome! thank you

Guy  - THanks   |172.162.131.xxx |2008-07-30 19:54:24 http://www.togosite.com Thank you togosite.com

Jonathan  - designer.   |74.211.131.xxx |2008-08-04 13:59:26 This is cool, but is there a way to not have any article at all on the home page?

Ben Dixon  - Google search   |81.101.236.xxx |2008-08-10 14:21:30 Does anybody know how I avoid this happening in Google when my site comes back as a search result? Welcome to the Frontpage - 07:15 SASC - Stockton Amateur Swimming Club. www.stocktonasc.co.uk/ - 4k (I have already changed the page title as shown in this method and also set it to hidden)

DART  - Google   |Registered |2008-08-11 04:15:25 You'll need to wait until Google crawls your site again and then updates the search results with your new title. Make sure that Welcome to the Frontpage does not show up in the Title Bar of your Internet Browser. Also make sure you are populating the meta-desc portion of your page.

Jamesy  - YOU ARE A FUCKING LEGEND   |124.191.163.xxx |2008-08-19 09:21:09 DUDE OMG IV'E JUST ABOUT BEEN THROUGH EVRY PAGE OF CODE LOOKING FOR THIS...FUK I WISH I COULD BUY U A BEER.

DART  - Beer   |SAdministrator |2008-08-19 09:47:58 You only need a Paypal account to buy me a beer

John  - Color / Font   |208.74.209.xxx |2008-08-22 13:15:15 How do you change the attributes of the page title (i.e. Color, Font, etc.)?

DART  - Color / Font   |SAdministrator |2008-08-22 15:49:47 This is something which you can change by changing the appropriate tags in the CSS files of your current template.
