Open on Galleries instead of index.

In CE3 there was a method suggested to have the site open on the galleries page rather than the home page. I want to do that in my CE4 version but cannot find the instructions.

Appearance > the Auto Index: Page assignment. Choose Home

That put the galleries in the home page and left galleries empty. www.photoimpressions.org
In the Nav section the first entry is Visit the Galleries pointing to galleries and the second is Home pointing to index.

you don't have to export the Galleries page at all if you don't want to.

The index page is now the galleries autoindex, essentially your Galleries page

You can always use the About or Info page as a sort of Home page as well.

Yes, but the nav bar comes from pages and it is not working right. In CE3 I had the layout you see, with Visit on the left and home in the second slot. When you opened the url the galleries opened instead of home. That is what I want to do here.

Just change the order of the navigation items then.

Can you be a little more specific? I have them in the order I want them to appear on the nav bar but selecting Home for the Page assignment combines the index and galleries content into one page. i can play with combinations and permutations of these settings all day and may stumble on the right setup.

If you want to keep the order, then just change the target url in the Navigation section of Site Info
