I’m having problems getting an article to display on the homepage. I’ve been through the forum and changed the index.php file to :

<jdoc:include type=”component” />

instead of

<?php if(!$tmpTools->isFrontPage()) : ?>
<jdoc:include type=”component” />
<?php endif; ?>

However it doesn’t seem to have done anything.

The URL for the site is http://79.171.33.154/~intrform/

Cheers,
Rob.

Thanks guys, I had this problem too and these two posts solved it for me. I wonder why the IF statement doesn’t work?

<?php if(!$tmpTools->isFrontPage()) : ?>
<jdoc:include type="component" />
<?php endif; ?>

there is a simple way

I wanted just one frontpage article on the main page

I created a category and a section called ironically, frontpage

I then created one article, assigned it to the frontpage sect/cat and assigned it to the frontpage

then go to your menu manager/mainmenu/home

make the parameters setting as above, but change the article type to article instead of frontpage blog category.

now I have one article on the main page.
