    can the "front" page be the forums instead of the articles?

    Every time I come here, I get the articles first. They're not particularly active, and I think most of us come for the forums. Seems like they ought to be the default home page. Can that be changed? Or is it a setting I just haven't noticed yet?

    You can simply go to the Forums page, then save it to your bookmarks. Delete your old bookmark. Voila!
    Save $6.00 on the awesome budgeting software YNAB

    Try Plan to Eat meal planning software. You can import recipes, type in your own, grab recipes from your friends, and it will populate a shopping list for you based on the recipes you plan to use.

    Attitude is the difference between an ordeal and an experience.

    You can either live in the past, or look towards the future. You cannot simultaneously do both with success.

    I'm not using bookmarks, and I end up accessing the site from a bunch of different computers/devices. I'm using www.debtfreefantics.com, which defaults to the articles directory instead of the forums, but I'm not sure why.

    If you're having trouble logging in or any other tech support issues, or if you have a question about the software, please post them in the Visitor's Corner.
    If you need to reach me about something more private, please contact me via private message.

    Reaching out to me privately may not result in a quick response. Posting in the Visitor's Corner ensures other staff members will see your post as well and may be able to help you more quickly.

    Also, as far as I know, none of the staff here are psychics, so if you are reporting an issue, and want help, then please take the time to be as detailed as possible. The more effort you put into describing the problem, the more we'll put into solving it.

    Actually it makes sense for it to be the articles - I think. Can visitors see the articles? If so, then we want visitors to be able to see some content. Those of us who are already here can bookmark the forums or do the extra click to get to the forums when we come here.

    I believe that is indeed the reason.

    Visitors can only see one active forum, which isn't much of a welcome. Presenting the curious visitor with several articles sends a good message that we're serious about what we do here.
