The Community home page is designed as a place to showcase pages within your site and promote special features available for the home page.
Boxes appearing on the front home page of your community site are only a default link to pages within the site, or a set of function boxes which can be selected by the community manager. The pages appearing in these information boxes can be added, changed or deleted, and their order or appearance rearranged.
To add a page to appear as a home page information box, add an image or logo, delete one of the boxes, or change their order, follow the following steps:
- Select Manage Default Page from the Content Control main menu.
- Select Add Image to browse and select an image from your computer for the homepage.
- Select Pathway Pages to control the selections on the home page. This will list the current pages and functions that are presently selected for display.
- You can alter the home page selections by using the following buttons:
Add Item - Used to select a webpage to showcase on the homepage

Layout templates - used to select from a range of homepage designs
