Installation Joomla! 5.x • Re: Trouble installing Joomla

Under that The word Home, Under that Main Menu, not even a vestige of anything helpful. I find it hard to believe that developers can make such an appalling mess of a perfectly good working program. It's a JOKE.

Now all I need is a long diatribe telling me I should use a different version of Linux (or XAMP) or a different browser, or that I'm an idiot and don't have a clue what I'm doing. I'm not holding my breath waiting for anything helpful. YOU MESSED IT UP!

No.

Your “issues” are caused by a lack of understanding. Take a deep breath…

• Make sure that you have chosen a a default menu item to be your homepage.
  Set that default menu item to point to some content that you have on your site.

As @ceford has pointed out, you’re looking at an empty front page whilst using the default Casseopeia template. It is empty because the “home” menu item doesn’t actually have anything to display.

Set the “home” menu item to be “featured articles”, then create a test article and set it to be “featured”. It will them show on your homepage.
