@goinglinux Thank you for your generous offer of the Ubuntu MATE guide.
Yes, I would like to have a copy.
...additionally thanks for your offer creating a Mate guide/manual.
Happy Holidays to all
When will the text and any images become visible? I see a nice, empty white page but code is there (view source). Maybe it ran out of blck/grey ink

@vkareh there are some issues on the page.
Blocked loading mixed active content “http://fonts.googleapis.com/css?family=Open+Sans:300italic,400italic,700italic,400,300,700”
You used the word "blocked" which I do to all Google-eyes. You tweaked a quirk, so to view Mate Wiki, I:
- Followed the link to https://mate-desktop.github.io/mate-wiki
- Still getting a blank page, I checked the link in the URL, it reads:
https://wiki.mate-desktop.org/#!index.md
NOTE the #! pound and exclamation mark. - I edited the URL (in my browser) to remove the "#!" and hit ENTER. Volia! Then reloaded the page and I found I had refilled the black ink cartridge for the fonts!
Now it's in my cache - for a few more seconds, and loads fine in a new tab. I will remember to edit the URL next visit. I won't let Google know.
Thanks for the response,
~i~
