Creating home page

If you already have a page you would like to use as knowledge base root, just click the link in the message and select it. In this tutorial we assume this is a fresh install and you do not have pages yet, so let\’s go ahead and create one.

In the left menu select PagesAdd New. A new page edit screen will open. At this point we only need to enter some title and publish the page.

Home page will start to display topics once you add any content. Please refer to articles on content creation to learn more about that. You can configure the home page layout in the Settings or you can use Page Builder to do that. Home page configuration will be described in separate articles.
