Web Site Problems

I thought I'd post something about updating our websites. As you may be aware from some comments Sue posted on Facebook, Serif software have decided that they will not be updating their web design software any more and so we have been on the lookout for alternative packages.

It looks like we will be changing from Serif WebPlus X8 to Adobe Muse.
I'm expecting it will take us a while to become reasonably familiar with the new software. As a first step I've attempted to convert my existing websites from the old to new software. I've found that Adobe Muse is very poor at creating tables and as I make use of lots of them on my website it is going to take me a while to get to grips with the software and the best way to work around this issue.

Of course it's not only tables that are different as navigation menus, links and methods of formatting text are all different let alone the way images are imported.

All this is my way of saying that if you log onto one of our websites and find it isn't working properly please bear with us while we get to grips with our new software. Making sure that all the previous links work correctly and open up the desired web page is quite a challenge.
