I know someone else started a discussion on this, but the question was never answered as they went the theming route. But just how do you use panels on your homepage, because whenever I try to make a new front page using panels it is fine until I try and make it the front page and it reverts to the original front page. I have tried deleting, overriding, disabling the lot and it still reverts.
New to OpenPublish but have been learning Drupal for around 6 months. Basically a handcoder.

I have the same problem and I couldn't solve it. I have created a custom layout and I am trying to use as the frontpage but it is still using the default front page. I tried everything changing the site information path for the front page, clean the cache and so on and nothing.
Did you find out hoe to do it?

Thanks.

maybe this is too old, and probably you have already fixed this, but i noticed that the page-front.tpl.php does not contain

<?php
print $content;
?>
. When you add it, then you'll see panels in the page. Happened to me when i tried to use homebox as a homepage.

Hope this helps
