frustration on the site

I attempted to create a website for my Wednesday night girls Bible Class that I teach all school year.  The problem with this was when I originally selected my template I chose the classroom option.  Very bad decision on my party.   I assumed that modifying it for a church Bible class would be quite easy.  It was not.  Everything from trying to link my church's homepage to posting a scripture verse of the week became a laborious task that could not be accomplished in 1/2 hour.  I was having to override every topic heading and even the default selection heading of link.  After working on this for about 30 minutes and not getting very far, I came to the conclusion that deleting this site and recreating a new one would be a much quicker option.  However, when trying to do this, I was told that the site that I had created would be held in storage for 60 days, so I would lose my site name if I started over.

I then tried and tried to find a way to alter my web template, but had no success.  So I concede to resign my site name and start from scratch.  I looked for a fitting templete, but church didn't fit, family didn't quite fit.  I think organization may be the closest match.

 My class is dedicating to training girls to grow into the Proverbs 31 woman that God would have them be.  I teach the girls cooking, sewing, handicrafts and many other attributes from Proverbs 31.  So I think that it would make an awesome website.

For what it is worth, since very little was accomplished  here is the link.

  1. I am sorry you had so much trouble. I should have suggested that one begin with a Blank Template. Then one can choose from Themes for a nice background.

    Your site linked is not openly available, so I could not see where you are.

    Thanks! :-)

  2. Not much to see as I wrestled almost the entire time.
