Kunena allows you to change default landing page in your menu. This allows you to have control on what people will see when they enter to the forum.
Step 1) Go to Menu Item Manager: Menus -> Kunena Menu and edit the menu item Forum
Step 2) Change Default Menu Item
A simple remedy for the problem is to use the trash-burn-build technique (see also Menu Issues):
1) Trash all existing menus and menu items that relate to your Kunena forum 2) Empty the menu trash. 3) Use the Kunena Control Panel: Tools -> Menu Manager -> Restore Kunena Menu facility. 4) Publish the menu item created for you in your top-level/main menu.
If you want to change menu alias www.domain.com/forum
to something like www.domain.com/discussions
, you cannot change it by just renaming your own menu item. In order to do that, you need to change menu alias directly from the Kunena Menu:
1) Go to Menu Item Manager: Menus -> Kunena Menu 2) Edit the menu item Forum 3) Change Alias
The menu items (the text contained in the Kunena menu tabs) can easily be edited by using the Joomla Menu Manager. Menus -> Kunena Menu -> Menu Item -> To alter the Menu Title
Just publish and unpublish your menu items in Kunena Menu. You can also restrict access to certain pages by changing Access Level of the menu item.
Hiding different views from the menu do not hide them from resourceful users. Users can still find a way to access all the different views, but they cannot see posts in restricted categories.
Kunena provides a few different views that can be added to Kunena Menu. Those are:
Shows a list of recent topics or posts. There are many different layouts to pick from:
Category index page showing all the categories in the forum.
Start new topic either in any category (defaults to first option) or only in one category.
Menu item to users own profile. If you want to restrict access only to registered users, use Access Level to do it.
Show topics in one category. This can be used to show categories in your menu.
