Place "Getting Started" on main page after sign in. It is hidden down in the blog info. I've been using the site for over a year before I found any info on How It Works

    I am in agreement with this idea. Although the ‘Getting Started with Family History’ page is available from the Home Page by clicking on the circle with the question mark icon/symbol at the top right side of the home page [the Help button], which opens the ‘Help’ drop down menu, then clicking on the second item in the drop down (the blue circle light bulb), which opens the ‘Getting Started with Family History’ page,

    I am for putting that Blue Circle light bulb symbol with the clear words ‘Getting Started, How to Do Family History’ front and center near the top of the Home page, which would link a user/new user directly to the ‘Getting Started’ page. Simple. Straight forward. Then the ‘Getting Started’ page could also have a link back to the “Help” drop down menu for all the other items provided in that drop down menu.
