Hi Jeff, > It's more complicated than that. Probably - but how much so, I don't know. I do know it is what we have. - so, only one way to find out, let's move those couple of pages you mentioned in other emails and see. I need your help here - in the conversation on the projects list ending with the web page at http://libreofficebox.org/projects/ adding the link to the LibO-na site wasn't there also a development instance setup for the teams use on the server? If so I lost the (can't find) the address for that - and a quick search of my email archive didn't pull it up - do you have that? Then I need to register at the forum module at that address - yes? The let Christian (?) know so he can give me author role on that specific site - yes? If not (the dev site wasn't made) we need to get that done as step zero. After that lets look at step being the move of the first few menu items, followed by a page - let's see what happens if we just cut in the body.
