Can we have more than one Admin? was created by DonnaE
Hello -

First I would like to thank you all for working so hard to provide us with a tool to organize, manage, and promote our club. I really appreciate having this website and all of the time, effort, and work you have put into building, maintaining, and updating it for us.

My question is this: Our Admin gave me administrative abilities on our site because I would like to make changes. In particular, I would like to create new pages and edit old ones. I currently have access to the administrative "buttons" but I cannot create new pages because there is no drop box when I click on "create new page" and I see no way to edit existing pages either. Am I able to create new/edit existing pages or is that something only the actual Admin person can do?

Thank you for your time and expertise!
Thank You!

The custom page editor defaults to setting up a new page. When you open the custom page dialogue, just start entering the information and then save.

See support.toastmastersclubs.org/doc/item/custom-pages for more detail.

The other thing to keep in mind is that some web pages are generated by the system code on each page refresh and cannot be edited directly, or at least, not with the custom web pages editor.

An example is the Meet Our Members page. That page is created from your Membership Management information and info in member profiles. While the page coloring can be changed via some color pickers in the admin console Appearance tab, the content of that page is updated via Membership Management and member profiles, not via any page editor.

Thus, the custom web page editor only creates and updates web pages that are not created by the system code.

Also, the home page and meeting information pages *are* editable, but not considered custom web pages, so they are located in a different spot in the admin console. (that will be addressed in the future)

While your club can share the admin password as it sees fit, the system only recognizes one registered website admin.

I did look at the instructions prior to posting the question, but I didn't have the drop down menu that the tutorial pictures. I attached a photo to show you what I mean.



I appreciate the response and look forward to additional instructions when you have time.
Thank You!

Thank you for the additional information - I wanted to fix spelling errors in the meeting information/directions page. Is that located in another place as well?

Thank you for your time - I did look around the forum but I did not see any threads that addressed my issue. I appreciate the time you are taking to walk me through this process.
Thank You!

You need to set up spellcheck in your browser. It's a local setting, not something that can be done from the website.

The reason you're not seeing anything in your dropdown in the image will be because there are no custom pages yet. Once you've created one, you'll see it in the list.
