I clicked on the "click to join" in order to join but that didn't work. Family Search is very hard to maneuver….at the top iof the home page, Community home, ask a question, community news, and groups….when I clicked most had nothing, and those that did were old comments, not related to my interests or questions….is there some place to direct me to how to get around on family search….I believe there are things, hidden, but, unable to locate them? Any help appreciated! June

    Good afternoon @June DeloresCocke Hall
    I'm sorry you are having trouble finding the information you need.
    There are Groups within the Community where you will need to join to post, but in many categories, you don't need to join.

    For example, I'm not a member of the Adoption Research Group, so I see a "Join" button there.

    You've posted in the General Questions category, where no joining is necessary. The same applies to Search and the other main categories in Ask a Question. No need to join. Just post, or read, or comment on an existing thread.

    If you're looking for guidance on using the FamilySearch main website, the Help button at the top right

    leads you to options for learning about the website or research in general.

    If you would like to share what you need help finding, we can try to give more specific directions.

    Best of luck with your research!
