I (and many other people) would create a single source for GRO registrations, and cite that Source for the Birth Fact (putting the registration details in 'where within Source').

If you mean the Text, try experimenting with Tools > Preferences > Query Window > Colours.

If you mean the background, there's a wish list item you could vote for: Dark Mode option

I definitely don't use Edge nor Chrome as neither of them worked on Win 10! So unlikely to work on 11.

They both work on windows 11 -- I use both of them regularly.

No problems here either.

If you tell us exactly how it 'has messed up the copy and paste system' we may be able to help you navigate back to familiar territory.

To be fair, John has done something similar to what I do; I've repurposed the Immigration fact for 'Travelled' (to use the To and From Places) and retained the Emigration fact for 'genuine' emigrations. Although I find Travelled covers everything if supplemented with Notes to indicate whether this w...

The Help File section on Data References And Metafields (scroll down) give ypu the information ypu need to reference the metafields via their names and not their position.

You cannot successfully sync the two PC unless you stick to just one Microsoft Account.

However, that account can have multiple email aliases which can be used to sign in interchangeably (with the same password).

Right click in the diagram and select Diagram Options. Experiment with the Orientation setting on the General tab.

However, in any tree other than a very small one, I think you'll find that you need to use both horizontal and vertical scroll bars.

Downloads, Services & Utilities, and Member Websites are all broken. It's almost certainly a result of the work we undertook to fix the Glossary, but I can't fix it from my phone.

No, they havent been disabled. I'm not well at present but will investigate when I recover.

It would be worth starting a new topic, seeking testers for this new plugin.

Wish List entry 599 has been raised.

Can anyone else check this out? If a couple of people confirm it's implemented, I'll mark it as such.

Part of it might be linked to the list credibility. If you open the list, nearly two-thirds of the top-ranking items are 15 years old or more. IMO, that’s a terrible first impression for new users, and doesn’t exactly give them a great incentive to vote. I suspect new users mostly follow a link to ...

I'd class something as dross if it was raised some time ago and has attracted a minimal number of votes and/or a very low rating. For example raised in 2016 and has attracted only two votes (there's three of those). Or raised over 10 years ago with only four votes and an average rating of 2.0. So, ...

Rich text is always trotted out as a justification for keeping old items in the wish list, but that comes back to the question I asked earlier. Was it implemented in FH7 because it was on the wish list, or because FH6 was looking increasingly dated compared with the competition? After all, there we...
