I just installed phpbb, how do i get the main page of it to look like this forum's,forums.devnetwork.net, main site. The way its like is like a portal page, where there's announcements and the catagories of all of the forums and other information.

Thanks.

You want to look for the download called ezPortal (http://smartor.is-root.com/viewtopic.php?t=1860).

There is a section somewhere within the code that allows you to turn that on (along with a news feed and a few other things). Otherwise, look really closely at the DevNet's and I think you will be able to figure it out (that's what I did by the way for automotive forum portal page).
