custom web page link error

3 years 7 months ago

For some reason I can successfully create a  custom web page link in Valencia ( www.toastmasters.org/About/Toastmasters-Promise?20g06O ), but not Toastmasters 4 Writers ( drive.google.com/drive/folders/1rR_HlDCH...ciZYFwU8?usp=sharing ). The links both work.

My first thought was maybe some quirk of the share address but I was able to create your link on the FTH test site.

The image you shared shows the new page/link dialog thinks it should be creating a page. If you haven't already done so, I might try closing out of the admin panel and reopen to try making the link again from the start.

What is the club number for T4W?

I think I see the dilemma; Your link configuration has entries in 'Web Page Name' and 'Web Page Description' which should cause a custom page to be created instead of a link.  The 'Select Web Page' drop down shows 'Meeting Role Scripts [Link]' but it shouldn't have [Link] with entries in those fields as it cannot simultaneously treat it as a page and a link.

At the risk of suggesting things you've already tried, what happens if you delete the entries in 'Web Page Name' and 'Web Page Description'?

Otherwise, I am wondering if a cache related issue is messing with the dialog box? Might be worth clearing cache, reloading site from server, etc and trying again from scratch.

You can see a working configuration of your link in the FTH test site. (I left it in place after making it)

Worked for me, it is in member menu under "google folder"
You didn't follow the instructions.
