  • "Is it possible to put the previous day and next day links at the top of the page, sometimes you have to scroll down a long way to find them because of all the comments. This would make navigating the site a lot quicker as not all of the starters are suitable for my classes. Thanks.

    [There are now previous day and next day buttons at the top of this panel. Hope that helps. Thanks for the suggestion. Transum]"
