[pmwiki-users] $PageUrl not being parsed

One more question, please...

3. HOW TO REMOVE 'HOME PAGE' FROM TOPIC LISTING?
When someone visits the forum, they always see the Home Page as the  
first topic.  This is confusing.  Is there any way to suppress this?   
Maybe add text tot he page for "No topics in this forum yet" if that  
is the only page?

Thanx,
Ryan
