Im not 100% sure as i cant remember the settings in TP V098  :2funny:

But i think you should have panels and Block options in your TP Admin
Set the frontpage panel to show and save.

It's the panel settings you should look for.

TP .098 isn't really setup to do that.

You can set a block to not show on the front page, but if the block is turned on will show in the forum.

What are you guys talking about? lol You can turn the panels off while in the forum. AFter that, the blocks will only show on frontpage. It will show while viewing articles as well. Just not in the forum if you turn the panels off while in the forum. Take a look at your panel settings.

Click on Admin, then under Tiny Portals, click on Settings and you'll see Panels under Settings and News.  Click on Panels.

You will see options such as:

Hide left panel when in forum?
Hide right panel when in forum?
Hide center panel when in forum?

Select Yes on all of them.  You can also hide the panels in other areas.
