    How do I control the order of individual forums under the Forums page?

    Is there a way I can override the default ordering of the forums. It seems they are semi-alphabetic but I am not sure. Anyway, I would like to have a specific order. Can I do that?

    Thanks.

    If you log into the AdminCP, choose Channel Management on the side menu, expand it, choose Channel Manager.

    All forums (and other channels) will be listed.

    Each one will have a "Display Order" which is a number. The lower the number the higher up the forum will display. Set a forum to 0 and it will be hidden.

    Note - each set of forums/channels that are subforums of another channels are relative to their parent forum. If you change the display order of the parent channel all the sub-channels will move with it. The display order is only relative to any channel's specific "level."

      You can also drag and drop them into a specific order using the Channels tool in Site Builder.

      All depends on which method is easier for you.
