What about all the reference helps that were on the previous site? Are they still going to be available does anyone know? I have referred lots of "newbies" to that to get help they can download and use at home.

these hae been transferred to FamilySearch Wiki. Geez, these reference aids are over 10 years old and haven't been updated while the ones at Wiki had been updated.

Everything that was on the classic site is now at the new site. Reference helps would likely be found under the Learn category at the top. That takes you to the learning resources, which is greatly expanded. The entire site is expanded and improved and had to be revamped to add all of the new information that is coming online. Feel free to ask here if you can't find specific things and we will see if we can guide each other to the new home of the information.
