I'm new to Drupal, so I hope I'm using the right terminology - we're using the efficient theme for a site that will actually be several "sites" or have several "flavors" based on age/audience.
I've created a theme based on the original efficient theme, with minor alterations (same layout, but different colors, graphics, etc). We're using Taxonomy Theme to change the look for each "site" - so the teen theme will be applied to the teen "site."
What I don't know how to do is to get the "home page" for each site. The theme I created based on the original efficient theme has the"page-front.tpl.php" file, but I'm not sure how to get it to display as the home page when I go to the teen section (/drupal/teens). I want to be able to use that "home page" layout with the 5 featured regions for each of our sites, so for example drupal/, drupal/teens, drupal/kids, drupal/history would be 4 different sites, with slightly different looks and their own home pages.
I've looked around on Drupal.org and tried posting to a listserv, but I haven't found the solution.
