Thanks. I have been using the method where the forum topic is not visible to users, but they can see the posts on the portal page. The problem is that I cannot keep on specific post at the top of the screen, so if I wanted a welcome message I would have to post anews article, then delete the old welcome message which would have got bumped down and repost it.
I figure there has to be an easier way. I have been looking for some sort of announcement or welcome message that can be show at the top of the front page.
I learned my lesson a long time ago that making too many changes to the code, or adding too many mods can make upgrading to a newer version a nightmare. I am trying to keep out of the source code and stick with what they give me in the package.
Thanks for the help.
