Site administration>front page>front page settings and then you get two boxes where you can choose from news items/courses/categories. Make sure news items is the top selection.
That did it(moved the news above the courses), but i have a label and summary on the home page and they are still above the news block. How do i get the news at the top fo the page?
Hi -no - you won't get them above the label and summary. If you like, instead , you could have them in a side block if you choose the Latest news site block by going to "add a block" Then you could move the sideblock to the top right or top left. Then you can take the middle news out completely via front page>settings. Just an idea - I think it looks neater in a block than splayed out in the middle and that leaves you more room in the centre for other stuff
I agree - thank you.
