New site
The new rehearsal website has been running for exactly one month, and I have received many messages saying how much cleaner and quicker the site is. Until today, when I received not one, but two messages about the lack of the Search Box. Why this hasn’t happened before today I do not know.
It appears that with Firefox and Chrome browsers, if AdBlock is turned on then there is no Search Box. A simple fix (I am told, as I know very little about this) is to turn AdBlock off, or to use Internet Explorer or Safari.
A second problem is that some people are experiencing a marked slowness in the site loading. I admit I am doing a lot of editing at the moment, so it may well be me that is slowing things down. So, I’ve sent a note to the new hosts to see what they can suggest. I suspect it will mean upgrading from shared to VPS or some such (this is getting a bit too technical for me). I will let you know how it turns out.
Cheers,
JohnF

Rejoice!
I have just completed transferring ALL the files from the old site to this new one, including all the Christmas files.
However, life is not perfect: someone has already noticed one item that somehow got lost in the transfer. So, I will leave the old site accessible for a while. If anyone notices other pieces that have gone astray, do let me know.
I will now work on getting more logical results from the Search box; I have a strategy, but it will mean I will have to revisit every page on the site again. But it will be worth it in the end….

Calling Barbara Grisdale. You got in touch with me yesterday, but my message back to you has been returned as the server has rejected it. Perhaps a typo in the email address.
Please contact me again.
