What members say - can we edit with our own members?

TI has a 'What members say' section with testimonials and photos. Is there a way we can edit that with our Club members to make it more relevant to our club and our city? Also 'Why our club is right for you' section. Would like the option to edit that as well. Again generic messaging is fine but having the the option to update to reflect our club is more impactful. Marketing locally makes more sense and can tie into our promotion campaigns.

Any tips on how I can do that?

The short answer is that you cannot change the content of that accordion. Its contents were dictated to us by WHQ as part of our branding / marketing agreement with them.

However, you can shut if off via the Appearance Settings (via Hide Links at bottom).

Lastly, there is actually a very technical, advanced template hack that I do support via the JavaScript that allows for replacing the entirety of that accordion with another one. (Which could contain content copied from the current one.) However, you should only venture down that road if you are very familiar with HTML and are comfortable working in the editor Source View. If I still have not yet dissuaded you from trying this template hack, then look at the following for more details: support.toastmastersclubs.org/2011-10-23...n-your-content#51571 If you do this, don't blame me if you mangle your home page HTML. :S

One of the issues that anyone trying this will likely run into is that the current accordion was designed to be responsive. All of the photos in it automatically resize for small screens. I put a good bit of time into that to get the resizing right. If you try to replace the accordion and you don't have the HTML and responsive layout know-how, you will not likely get good results for smaller screens (e.g. phones).
