Before the v5 upgrade, my board had a section up top with informational links. Here's the WayBack machine historical home page:
web.archive.org/web/20130410002415/http://gmcr.proboards.com
Under the "Welcome" banner are 4 links, in two rows of two, for a welcome message, rules of the board, etc. The documents themselves are simply posts in a sub-board, and the little "i" symbols link to those posts.
After the v5 upgrade, this section simply disappeared--no welcome banner, no links. I don't particularly want the welcome banner back (it would just occupy valuable screen real-estate), but I'd like those links to be prominent. What's the easiest way to bring those back under the v5 version of the board?
Thanks!

Go > admin > Themes > Layout Templates > Home
At the very TOP of the template add the code below You can add a welcome message and your links and link titles
Be sure to add the links where it says ADD URL LINK HERE And your link description where it says ADD LINK TITLE HERE
If adding a welcome message be sure to use <br> after each line of text
<center><div class="container"> <div class="title-bar"><h2><b>Welcome to the GMCR Community Coffeehouse</b></h2></div> <div class="content"> <br />ADD WELCOME MESSAGE HERE<br /> <br /> <a href="ADD URL LINK HERE">ADD LINK TITLE HERE</a> <a href="ADD URL LINK HERE">ADD LINK TITLE HERE</a><br> <a href="ADD URL LINK HERE">ADD LINK TITLE HERE</a> <a href="ADD URL LINK HERE">ADD LINK TITLE HERE</a><br /><br />
</div></div></center><br /> Steve

Great, thanks! I've installed the links on my board and the functionality is there. I added underlining for the links so they'd show up as a bit more discrete.
