When you first install the new Forum, it uses a default Home page that can be customized to display your own welcome message. If you'd prefer the All Forums view as the default (like in previous versions), follow these steps:

Go to the "FileManager" option in the Admin menu. Once the file manager loads, locate the file named appsettings.json, select it, and click the edit icon on the toolbar. Open the file, find the SnitzForums section, and look for the "LandingPage" setting. Change its value from "" to "AllForums" and save the file. 

Saving will trigger an app pool recycle, so there might be a short delay when opening a new page as the application reloads. After making this change, the "home" page should redirect to AllForums, and the "Home" links in the breadcrumb will be hidden.

 

Be cautious while editing this file, as mistakes could prevent the application from reloading.
