Can't get module in inset pos to show on home page

Hoping someone can help. I am trying to get some text on the home page and understand now that this module doesnt allow articles on the home page. so I have since created a module for the text and am trying to put it in the inset position. It won't show. I have tried everything I can think of. Any ideas?

Nevermind, lol. Fixed it.

open /inc/col_left.php

and change
<?php if ($showleft) { ?>

to

<?php if ($showleft || 1) { ?>

open /inc/col_main.php

and change:

<?php if ($showinset) { ?>

to

<?php if ($showinset || 1) { ?>
