Slightly ahead of schedule, to be honest! I wanted to import the member list from the original site settings and after importing it seems this activated notifications when I editted/posted the reading material in the new design.
So, I learn as I go! With this redesign I sought the help of professionals and via the Wix request feature I was able to make contact with Dimension Creative
The main outcome of this collaboration was to utilise the blog feature to post the material. This has reduced the number of pages of the website and has allowed for easier editting and formatting (for me)
This is still a work in progress, particularly in the development of member material access. Thus, if you cannot retrieve or access material then let me know.
