Not familiar with the tent (or the porch) but I get the feeling you may need to consider something along these lines...
Search "Interlocking foam floor mats".
There's a million on the market, so shop around. Look for the perforated ones, as per my pic, as some have no holes. Shouldn't have to pay much more than a tenner for four. Can be used on top of a ground sheet (which can hold water itself though, obviously) or better still, lay straight on the grass. If it's particularly windy, or indeed, if you haven't laid them flat in the car, they may lift a little, so use those short plastic mushroom headed pegs through the holes (not every hole! LOL!). Various colours available too.
Last time I looked, Aldi had some in.
Just note sizes, before you buy... some are 500mm square, some are 600mm square.
...Oh, and if they come with the edging trims, do what we ended up doing... and chuck 'em in t' bin!!

PS:
I agree with Campernic... if rain can get in, be it an open front, or a sloping door that lets in rain each time you go in and out, give the groundsheet a miss, or at least, if at all possible, fold the groundsheet back a foot or so, so any driving rain doesn't reach it. Grass is so much more practical, and as said, these mats save it churning and turning into mud!
Same mats, but laid on a groundsheet (We were newbies back then, and didn't even know we preferred grass!!) :-)...
