'''5G.''' Click the "Save changes" button at the bottom of your "Edit source" page. Good work! Now you have your own image in the article. | |||
== 6. Add 3 announcement boxes to the "Announcements" section using the [https://www.familysearch.org/en/wiki/Template:Kalispell_FHC_Announcement Kalispell FHC Announcement] Template == | |||
The announcement boxes are bright green and intended to draw people's eye. When working on your own pages try not to use more than 3 boxes in a row at a time. If you use more than three you risk people skipping over the content in the green boxes entirely, and not reading what is actually important or time-sensitive on the page. I also try and keep the content rotating in the green boxes, so that people know that there is typically new information in them - otherwise people will grow accustomed to them and may skip over them the next time they come to your page and miss that there is a Family History Activity coming up (for example). | |||
For our page we will be putting in 3 announcement boxes with the content below. | |||
Box 1: | |||
<pre> | |||
2022 RootsTech videos available now! | |||
"RootsTech welcomes millions of people worldwide to celebrate family at the world’s largest family history conference and year-long learning platform. With thousands of classes, inspiring speakers, meaningful activities and joyful connections, RootsTech brings the human family together like no other event." | |||

</pre> | |||
Box 2: | |||
<pre> | |||
Get your personal family history books digitized. | |||
The Salt Lake Family History Library will be digitizing family history archives in the NW Montana History Museum (previously the Central School Museum) in Kalispell. If you have your own PERSONAL family history book and would like it digitized so that others are able to search it online at FamilySearch.org, please contact Diane Denney at 406-212-2176 or Debbie Russell at 760-703-5558. | |||
For questions or digitization requests go to the https://www.fsrecordfinder.org/contact Family Search Record Finder Contact Page. | |||
</pre> | |||
Box 3: | |||
<pre> | |||
Join the Ranks! Help digitize Flathead County records. | |||
FamilySearch has provided volunteers and professional equipment to digitize Flathead County local records for FREE! No longer will these records need to languish on dusty shelves in our local repositories with their valuable nuggets of genealogical information forgotten and hidden. This project is HUGE, and FamilySearch’s volunteers are seeking to swell their ranks. They can use all the help they can get. | |||
