OMG! I don't know what happened. The last time I looked at it, which was shortly before I sent the original message, everything was fine!
No, I did not try to change the template. I've actually been offline since my last reply, so I have no idea what might have happened.
There was some kind of problem with the site, during the time I was working on the page (when emails had been disabled, because of a suspected security issue). A couple of times, I had to try twice to publish, where it didn't go through the first time. I don't know if that would be related to the security issue or not....or if that could have erased the edit mode.
Should I go ahead and replace the contents in Edit mode? Or should we try and figure out what went wrong first?
Just to make sure I do the right thing, I need to choose Table of Contents from the dropdown menu, right? That's what Martin means by "side panel" isn't it?
Thanks, brynn

The page seems to be empty right now in edit mode (I was shocked a bit, when I visited it and it was empty - in published mode, it's still there, just made a copy, just in case...), but it's using a Normal template.
What happened? Was the contents lost on changing the template?

I thought it was using the Normal Page template. At least that's what I was trying to do. I was just going to copy that and paste it into the already existing page, overwriting it. If it's not the Normal Page, I might need some help with that.
I would definitely need help with the sidebar layout. Maybe Patrick knows how? He said he'd be busy this week, so moving it won't happen immediately, either way.
Thanks, brynn

Hi Brynn,
The content to the page looks good overall.
CMS wise, the page should use either the Normal Page, or the Sidebar Page as the template. This is because we can't see for sure what it will look like with an 'inherit' setting which picks a blank page.
I'd also encourage the use of the sidebar template as it's been very useful for functional pages where detailed content goes in the main left side part and action buttons go on the right sidebar to make it easy to quickly move.
Best Regards, Martin Owens

Hi Friends, As a result of my comment and concern about a long "warning" message which was meant to remind bug reporters about what kind of info needs to be included in the bug report,
details here: https://bugs.launchpad.net/inkscape/+bug/1774404
and also, it was the first time I realized that Help menu > Report a Bug goes directly to the Report Bugs page of the website (https://inkscape.org/en/contribute/report-bugs/)
which in it's current state does not really perform as that kind of a function (it's more informational than instructional), Patrick and I have overhauled that page. We wanted to put the proposed change to the website team, before setting it live.
Here's the proposed new page (of course the red text at thetop would be removed before going "live"):
https://inkscape.org/en/report-bugs-2-edit/
Purposely, the link to LP is at the bottom, to force users to at least skim through the bolded requirements before starting the new report.
Any comments, suggestions, etc. are welcomed.Thanks, brynn (and Patrick)
PS - Just realized we probably should put some kind of inspirational "thank you" sentence at the bottom. "Thank you and congratulations for contributing to Inkscape" or something??
