I created a personal page a couple times.
Seems like it saved correctly and awaiting review.
When I went to add some additional pictures tonight, it was missing?

It seems you keep deleting things and chaining the name of your boat.
You have a Sport GLS model and it is also 13'.
When you delete everything and change everything around, it is automatically deleted.
Then it needs to be approved again.

It seems you also put your page Offline. That doesn't work.
You need to put it Online to be approved.

Your personal page was working just fine and was approved until you tried doing whatever you did tonight.

Hmm,
Ok, thanks Joe.
I added 1 picture recently and when I went to "edit personal page", everything was there and I thought I was able to just insert another picture.

I thought I was getting error messages about using certain symbols in my boat name.

Tonight, when I went to edit personal page there was no previous content?

Is edit personal page the correct way to add additional pictures?

Thanks and sorry for the inconvenience.

Best regards,
Doug

Doug,

Yes, editing the page is the correct way.
But somehow you deleted everything first, your entire page, and then started over.
That erased everything including the number of visitors you had, comments, etc.
All you want to do is add or remove something like a photo or text and don't delete the entire page.

Looks good today and I approved it.

I wouldn't call it a mistake.
Members come up with things I never even knew was possible to do and believe me, I try and beat up on everything when we started this site. I tried to break anything possible I could think of.
These are all just learning experiences.
