Re: Adding Media files.
I know methods evolve due to the possibilities available but I'm getting more curious re time frames and versions. I bought FH6 near EOL leaving FH7 as my main exposure. I believe I've seen FH Auto Sourcing demonstrated in early videos by Jane Taubman but may be incorrect there. I have also heard a...

Re: Adding Media files.
For the documents that AS doesn't handle for me - for example gravestones, obituaries, etc. - I create the fact first - let's say a burial fact based on an obituary. Then with that fact selected in the property box, I click the "Add Citation" in the sources box at the bottom of the screen...

Re: Search and delete duplicate Events?
Welcome to the FHUG forums.
One way to do it is to download the plugin called Find Duplicate Facts. This will create a result set from which you can delete the facts that you no longer wish to keep.

Re: Marriage Input Screen lacks {DateREGISTERED}
What awful news... I'll be the first to say, however, that while in general I refuse to pay a yearly subscription for software, in the case of AS, I would be willing to do so if it meant you could keep the software in development. It's such a boon for my workflow. That said, I realize you may not g...

Re: AS death and burial input screens.. edit?
The main issue though is that there isn't an auto-text template built into AS for the USA State Death certificate For a long time there was not one death certificate for the USA. Every state had its own unique death certificate with different information than other states. At some point, I think it...

Re: Emigration to or from?
I was just responding to the OP who said. I, personally, tend to think of them the other way around. I'm interested in where people emigrate to, and immigrate from. I wasn't meaning that you were confused, I just thought the OP might be confused. I was probably not understanding what they meant. I d...

Re: Emigration to or from?
There really shouldn't be any confusion. The words have had those meaning for many many years. Emigration Etymology. From Latin emigratus, past participle of emigrare (“to move away, remove, depart from a place”), from e (“out”) + migrare (“to move, remove, depart”). Immigration Etymology. From Lati...

Re: Changes to notification defaults
I don't like the idea of automatically being opted-in to anything. If I want to be notified I will opt-in. This would include the notifications at the top by my name. I shouldn't have to opt-out.

Regarding John's postings, I believe that Windows is case agnostic.

Re: Check For Unlinked Media (FH7) - new plugin that can search in all locations
Looking at this in the media window it shows it is linked once. Just to clarify and avoid any misunderstanding, the Links 1 highlighted is the number of links to the Media record from other records (Source record in this case) and not the number of links to Media files. So in this context the Links...

Thanks for the explanation Mark. I always store images of census pages in a folder for the head of the household. The file name has the head of household's name in it.
