I'm not sure what you are getting at here - such a page can be created by members to be viewed by everyone, using the wiki. The "Meetings" pages are intentionally transient because they are highlighting forthcoming events. You can use the PageCalendar to set up one of those pages and you are also free to make a new page PenzanceEvents or similar that can hold more long term data. > At > the moment the home page is really for members If you want the StartHere wiki page to be a "newcomer" page, you are free to do that as you wish. If you need images displayed, you can either host them remotely and link from the wiki or send them to me for hosting on DCGLUG. > friendly. Maybe a bold advert on the home page near the top. Once the StartHere page has some useful content and a suitable look, I can add a section at the head of "Online Resources". i.e. make the StartHere page into an "online resource" with useful data and I'll update the homepage to match. > Now I am not competent to do this and am likely to make a hash of it. Nah. You can do it - just play around with the Notepad: http://www.dcglug.org.uk/wiki/?id=Notepad You can create any content there - whether it works or not - and then copy the code into the proper page. Just ensure you empty the page once you are done. > Would a member kindly volunteer to liaise with me over it.

Adding that to the Members Register is fine but that doesn't really fit with what you want precisely because it is restricted. Encourage people to email you first and then you can give them your phone number. Putting a phone number on a "transient" press release is one thing. Putting on the internet where Google et al will index it for ever more if quite different. -- Neil Williams ============= http://www.data-freedom.org/ http://www.nosoftwarepatents.com/ http://www.linux.codehelp.co.uk/
