**Try this, put the material in Notepad++ in a new file tab. If you would like to keep the material for an extended time, because you want to remove even more material, it will stay in that new file WITHOUT saving it, even if you close down Notepad++ when you turn off your computer. The file tab will come up again the next time you turn on your computer. When you are sure you don’t need the material anymore, you can click on the little x on the file tab and the file will go away. | **Try this, put the material in Notepad++ in a new file tab.

*In our quest to make sure that if we change the title of many locality pages to improve SEO we do not create others problems, one of the challenges was the concern that if we redirect twice or more the same page we could get into troubles. However, apparently, if we do this the right way it is possible to redirect twice or more the same page and still the system should work. If this is true, we are very close to be able to make this change. | |||
**David Smith will share with us an explanation about what to do or not to do to make this system work in the next few days. Thank you David Smith ! | |||
**I personally really like the way that ancestry has organized it's place page titles: | |||
***State Pages - "State Name Family History Research" | |||
***County Pages - "County Name, State Name" | |||
***Town Pages - "Town Name, State Name" | |||
*Saw this in LDSMedia Talk. Gives link to get free Ancestry.com and others sites for those who have not received their invitation to join up as yet. You might want to pass this web address to those in your wards and stakes who have not received their invitation. | |||
