Re: Home page spacing reformatted
1 year 10 months ago
It looked fine when I went in, then I made a content change and the page reverted back to it's weird format! I am so done. This should not be happening. It's a simple text change and this keeps happening. The GOOD news is a did a backup after I went in. The BAD news is it didn't fix anything. So what does that mean??? How are garbage and extra lines creeping in? Pleeeez help me figure out what is wrong. I wanted our home page to be informative but it has become too much of a headache to maintain.

Re: Home page spacing reformatted
1 year 10 months agoI think the backup didn't work because there's seems to be no issue with the page content itself? (see my comment below to Pam)The GOOD news is a did a backup after I went in.

Please provide some additional detail about your editing session; a step by step of actions from opening the admin module to saving your changes. Are you pasting or typing content to update the page? Include before and after screen captures of the admin module of your edit session as that might help help us determine what is happening and suggest how to resolve it.
Pam; Curious that the page looks fine in the editor window, even when it's messed up in the regular browser view. This is what led me to investigate outside of the page content. I cleared the Main Heading again and the page is back to normal in the regular browser view. I didn't run any script removal tools.

The changes I made to the home page were for the January 17 and February 21 meetings only. What you see online now is the BEFORE view which was restored by the backup.
My process was I opened the admin console, typed in the changes below by hand (no copy/pasting), changed text colors, saved and closed. That's when the spacing change occurred. I went back into the admin area and performed the restore function which changed the content for the 2 dates but did not fix the formatting issue.
Content and color changes made (copy was reversed so that "Online meeting" was moved before the meeting theme title):
January 17, 2024 text was changed to: Online meeting "New Thoughts for a New Year" (Online meeting was black text; the meeting theme had the text color)
February 21, 2024 text changed to: Online meeting Winners' Circle (Online meeting was is black text; Winners' Circle was the colored text)
PS: I looked at the html created when I backed up this morning AFTER making those edits and I see now that the backup did NOT update the content. Inserted a screenshot from the html. That makes no sense.

No anomalies occurred while making the edits shown in the above pic. Seems like something is happening on your device while the FTH admin module is open. I don't have any guesses as to what that could be. What is your hardware and browser? It is possible to try home page edits on a different device?

My PC is an HP Envy running MS 2010. Thank you for your help. I'm sorry for the headache. It's fixed for now. I have a laptop I could use next time, so we'll see how it goes.
