Here is what I have in the CONFIG.PHP....

include_once("$FarmD/cookbook/commentboxstyled.php");
include_once("$FarmD/cookbook/forumstyled.php");
$ForumList[]='TestForum01;
$ForumList[]='TestForum02';

I assume your code is to display "Compose message, add author name,  
and click post" instead of "Define Topic01A here".  Is this correct?   
Is there a problem with adding to the $ForumList in the way that I have?

Again, just to recap, I am seeing "Define Topic01A here" and not the  
"Compose message..." statement.

Yeah, I added the variable to the GroupHeader and it works well.

This worked perfectly.  The Home Page is no longer displayed in the  
topic listings.

So, this only leaves the "Define Topic01A here" message.  Any thoughts?

Thanks, again, Hans, for all of your assistance.
