Hi Gwendolynne, Thank you for letting me know about the link and including the current-issue link. My apologies to all… I used an old link (from memory--ouch!). The Table of Contents for the October-December 2011 issue is at http://www.stcwvc.org/galley/2011_octdec_galley_toc.html. Again, Gwendolynne, thank you. Kindest regards, Carol

Hi, Rick.

Nice job on the newsletter.

How did you create your link in the post above? I did mine manually with an html <a> tag. Is that how you did yours as well?

Cheers, Gwen

Hi Gwendolynee:

You're correct... tags (sometimes) have to be created by hand. But in other areas (such as when creating an event) you can cut/paste or use the editor shortcuts. And, still other edit areas have a quasi-WYSIWYG interface.

If you think that all this is highly confusing, and that MySTC should have a single, easy-to-use editing interface, (and if you feel it would be helpful if there were "help" pages for MySTC), please add your support and comments to this item: https://getsatisfaction.com/sfortc/topics/which_items_allow_what_formatting (note that this was first identified as an issue 9+ months ago).

Is this group a duplication of http://stc.org/mystc/groups/viewgroup/226-STC+Newsletter+Editors

I really think we only need a *single* group for newsletters.

The full list of newsletters *used* to be on the old STC wiki (see http://stc-carolina.org/stcwiki/index.php?title=STC_Community_Data for a FROZEN copy, hosted by the Carolina Chapter.

I have asked multiple times to have this information ported to the new STC.org site. If you agree, please add your voice to the GetSatsifaction feedback site: http://getsatisfaction.com/sfortc

Additionally, I have requested that all this information be added to each community's group page. Unfortunately, I was told that this too is not possible. However, as a workaround, group owners can add this information to their group's description, as illustrated here: http://stc.org/mystc/groups/viewgroup/20-Carolina

Nice list, Rick. It would be great to add an active tag. Sadly, some of the chapters listed are no longer around... the Netherlands, for example.

Wow thanks Gwendolynne. I wonder if headquarters has an exhaustive list anywhere? Maybe we should start one.

Hi, Jennifer. Thanks for setting this up. I just stumbled on it today. I wonder if all of the other editors know about it...
