Is it possible to only get shown the last 5 topics on the main page, and still list more topics when you go into a category on the forum?
Or just switch them around so the categories will be listed first, and then the latest topics below the categories?
Thanks
There is a discussion of changing the number of front page topics here:

To put the categories first and the latest topics after, you just need to move those things around in your front page template (front-page.php in your template directory).
You must log in to post.
