Website completely messed up

6 years 7 months ago

A club officer got into the website mcclub.toastmastersclubs.org/ to add a photo. Somehow it is now completely "wonky". We can't even figure out how to log in as admin or a member! Need help urgently! Is there a backup? The change happened on 1/14/19 at about 10:00 a.m. CMT. I see the attached at the bottom of the page. She did not mean to unsubscribe! Can anyone of you get in there and fix it please? We are willing to give you admin privileges if we have to.

Someone from your club inserted a lot of junk HTML for scheduling buttons.. :pinch: :thumbsdn: It took me a bit to clear that out.

I also fixed the horizontal line in the home page content that was screwing up the content width. Use <hr> in the html content for horizontal lines that automatically have the correct width.

Your images need to be fixed for proper display on small screens. Use %widths only (not fixed pixel widths) to ensure that your content displays properly on varying screen sizes.

Hello, I am the officer who made the original changes that resulted in the website messing up. I just attempted this again with the same results. All I did was upload a picture and add some text below.

My biggest problem is I've lost the ability to edit the page so I can't go back and try to correct the problem.

If you can help restore this (AGAIN) and guide me in how to prevent this in the future, I would greatly appreciate it! Thank you.

1) We don't restore pages, you are responsible for backing up the pages.
support.toastmastersclubs.org/doc/item/backup-your-site

2) I have removed the button once again. DO NOT try and put it back. where ever you got the code from it is not compatible with FTH.

Thank you for your assistance. I will create a backup. I'm not sure what button you are referring to as both times all I did was import a photo and add text below. I'm new to this role and am unsure what HTML may have been added prior to me stepping in.
