In the navbar, I want it to show the Forums page before the CMS home page. I also want to show the forums page when navigating to my website's url instead of going to the original cms page. And the third and final thing I want, is to change the name of the CMS page from "Home", to "Articles" or something like that.

1. The Home tab is just a plugin in the CMS product. Go into the plugin and change the template hook from navtab_start to navtab_middle (or navtab_end0.

2. Go into the index.php page and read the comment there - it tells you exactly how to do that by uncommented a line (and commenting the other).

3. It's a phrase. Do a search in phrases for the exact text "Home". I think the name of the phrase is site, but can't remember for sure.

1. EDIT: Wow, I found this after finding out what you meant by 3, I just got lucky xD
2. Wow, I didn't understand what you meant, but I went into index.php in my ftp thing like you said and changed the red lettering content.php to forum.php.
3. EDIT: I didn't get this one either, but after posting I finally found out how to do it!

1. Plugin Manager > click Navbar: Insert CMS Navbar Entry to edit > change 'navtab_start' to 'navtab_middle' (in two places).

Sounds like you got the other two.
