I wish to have people who stumble upon my page to be able to contact me via email for the password. How may I go about doing this? Thanks

In your Report open the Document tab and add something like I did to my report http://familytrees.genopro.com/appleshaw/Beaven-Evans/.

Click here to send message
Click on the envelope for email contact

I have a gif file on my web site at http://tinyurl.com/yrgntu
You are welcome to use it - Right click it and save. If you use it you will probably need to use the GenoPro ftp to load it in the correct position
If you need any more help use the email on my site to get in contact

If you use it you will probably need to use the GenoPro ftp to load it in the correct position

The best way is to modify the file home.htm to include the .gif image.  This way, each time you update your report, the image will appear.  See http://www.genopro.com/tutorials/videos/customizing-html-report/ for details.

Thank you for your replies...However, I should have been somewhat more specific:

When someone finds their name in a google search, for example: They click on their name, and it takes them to the url that is supposed to be my home page on GenoPro. However, I have password protected my home page. When the person clicks on their name, they are redirected to a screen that informs them that a password is required. It is here on this screen (http://familytrees.genopro.com/Password-Required.aspx?url=%2ftonyerin%2ftonyerin%2fdefault.htm ) that I wish to be able to provide an email address that someone can use to contact me for the password. I don't want people who stumble to my site through Google or another search engine to be discouraged from pursuing it, as these are the folks that usually have the most to offer as far as information goes once I make the connection. I however p/w protected the site to protect peoples' privacy. I still want a way for people to be able to get in contact with me. Thanks!

Great idea, it's an essential requirement, and probably very easily implemented. This page needs an email icon directing visitors to the publisher.

If you site is password protected it will be removed from Google on their next update. The only way your files got included in the Google is during the time it was not protected.

Hi, my site is not indexed by Google, and I understand I did not clarify the reason I think it should have an email contact on the password page. 

I may change the password from time to time to exclude casual users, or users may forget the password following years when they had lost interest and now again want access. Many users are as forgetful as I am, and need to be reminded of the password each time they access the page. It is possible for the administrator of the site to have changed email addresses from one user's access to the next time.

It appears a straight forward addition to the page that would be of great  assistance, and no negatives.

I will add a link to contact the author of the publication on the password page.

I put a link to the author public profile where the visitor can find a way to send him a message.

Thank you, very helpful as always.

By the way, were you aware that when the user's reports are 'hidden' and/or 'password protected' that the following message is displayed on the profile page?
