How to handle Home Page in frameless skins

Question

I like the topic layout in frameless skins, with the topic sub menu to the right!

However, for the Home Page, how can I simplify it so that only a few tiles appear?

My first thought was to break up a topic into separate topics and put under a section, but then when I click on a section tile I go to the underlying topic tile.

Is there a way to turn OFF Home Page tiles or a better way to declutter the Home Page?

Or do I give my head a shake and approach the Home Page in a different manner 😉

Thanks and take care

It depends on how you configure things.

First of all you will only see any tiles if you select the Use Template Home Page option.

That will open the home page showing all the tiles for the top level sections in the TOC.

With Drilldown TOC deselected, the next thing will be the normal TOC on the left. So minimising the number of top level sections will achieve what you want there.

If you select drilldown, then you will see the next level of sections plus any topics at that level.

Create a topic with several levels of sections and play with those settings. You will soon get the hang of it.
