T.J.

The link to the club site works fine for me. What browser and version are you using?

The link to support documents was replaced with support.toastmastersclubs.org/doc

You have a bad image reference on your home page. That will mess things up.

You also do not have your FTH website listed in TM Find A Club--you have two Facebook references. This will make it harder for prospective meeting guests to find you via Google.

Please bear with me: What do you mean by bad image?
Two Facebook references? How doi I get rid of one?

1. Bad image reference. When you put an image/photo in one of your web pages, there is actually two parts to it. When you upload the actual image via the editor image upload button, it is actually stored in a holding area for your club on the server, *not* in the page that you see it in. What is actually in the page you see is an an HTML img tag with a folder/file reference to where the image is actually stored on the server. This is not some crazy way that we do things, this is how the vast majority of images are referenced on the web. (Your browser knows to fetch the image from the server that is referenced in the img tag.)

The upshot of this is that you can delete either what you see in the web page (in admin console) or you can switch to the editor's Source view and delete the corresponding img tag, *but* if you delete the stored file that the img tag points to, you will frequently have problems (including loading your website), since you are basically telling the browser to look for a photo on the server that is not there.

To fix, go into the admin console and delete the image reference from your home page that points to a non-existent file.

Relevant doc: support.toastmastersclubs.org/component/...editing-page-content

2. An officer needs to go to Club Central, log in, then edit the meeting information so that it only shows one Facebook page address, and then enter in your correct website address. When you do that, you will notice after a bit (probably a few days or so) that you actually show up higher in Google's results for your club, and people will find you.
