Migrating to FTH4

Your club admin received the instructions to update their admin password to access FTH4. (FTH3 admin passwords will NOT work in FTH4). Follow the instructions in the email and use 'Member sign in' in the top right corner to access the Club Admin account.

If you are not sure who the club admin is, in your member account; look at 'Club Officers and Members' > "Club Email addresses". The LAST item in this list is the person who is currently listed as your club admin.

If this is not correct, please complete and submit this form to change your club admin:

WOW, there certainly is a wealth of info here.

My first question is who is your projected audience for this site? I assume a district site would pleasure club and district officers - but the YouTube videos seem the type to attract members. And the YouTubes take up a lot of space - reduce them to about 1/3 the size and stack them side by side in one row for a clean look. At the bottom of the homepage, "Every TM journey starts with a single speech." is something I'd expect to see on a club site rather than a district site. One way to streamline the the info might be to base it on audience - members, clubs, district officers.

I guess my concern with having so much info is in the organization. I pretended that I was an area director - what info would I be looking for and could I find it. Then I pretended to be a club officer, etc. For me, starting a new club doesn't fit with Tips and Tricks but that's where it is. There is a lot real estate devoted to your recognition ceremony on the home page AND a unique page for it as well. Ditto on the Pathways video and the unique page. I would more appreciate a home page that is clean, with a tease and a mention with a MORE... button to link me over to the devoted page.

And last, most of the info I found was the same stuff I can find on Toastmasters.org. If I were a director or club officer looking for something, I'd Google it and Google would take me to TM.org. However, I would make an effort to visit this site to find inspiration and ideas - specific, hands-on tools, examples of what's working in other parts of the district. Your goal is to support all clubs - I would want to see and feel what the district is doing to support my club. Do we have District Incentives? Programs?

I can tell you've put a boatload of time and energy into this. I hope your people appreciate you!

What do I do to make it mobile friendly? Is there something built in to implement that?

Very nice site. It does appear that a lot of the linking has been fixed.

Just my two cents to share, my recommendation from a web developer point of view is to keep that homepage to where you don't scroll too much. You can definitely create custom webpages with FTH. My feedback I receive all the time from folks is they do not want to scroll too much. It is a small suggestion that could go a long way. Again, just my two cents, but the site does look great. Best of luck on your journey!
