| How to make a static home page in Joomla |
| Written by conticreative | |||||||
Page 1 of 5 Joomla is a fantastic tool for building modern and dynamic websites. However, many people new to Joomla find it hard to set up their site to mimic a non-portal site with one or more fixed articles on the front or main home page. In this article I will try to explain some of the tricks you can use to achieve this effect while keeping the RSS feed and the blog style layout of the dynamic content.
In Joomla the "Home" page is not just a regular page. In fact, the "Frontpage", as it is called, is nothing more than a Joomla component in its own right.
In a regular Joomla site the "Frontpage" allows the user to publish selected articles in a "blog" or "portal" style. While this is a nice feature and one of the things that make Joomla so powerful, many websites need a Home page with a fixed article to greet and guide visitors or illustrate the site purpose. While this is actually easy to achieve, it is not immediately evident. I will assume you know your way around Joomla! by now, but even if you don't these techniques should be fairly easy to follow.
