Re: Place Exceptions plugin error

OK, will do Mike.
As I mentioned before, I still get errors, so I will not change those entries.

Interesting aside, I just checked the Lat/Lon of the 3 entries we began with, and it is just over a mile from Enville Street in Stourbridge.

Re: Place Exceptions plugin error

What exactly do you correct to be consistent? My analysis so far suggests the problem is where 3 or more similar Place names have exactly the same Lat/Longitude. i.e. There is 0 distance between all the plots. The distance between plots calculation involves complex maths to determine the great circ...

Re: Place Exceptions plugin error

Thanks Mike,

If I correct those 3 places to be consistent with other 'Places' and re-run the plugin, I then get a whole bunch more erroring.
Interestingly, all in Bromsgrove as before, so again, all from the data sent to me for my wife's paternal grandmothers line

Re: FH PDF Printer Dialogue Box opening Position

The FH PDF printer is really just a leftover from the early days of FH when Windows didn't include a native PDF printer. Just use the Microsoft PDF printer instead - it's just as capable, and better behaved. MS applications 'tend' to remember where you left them, EG on which particular screen if yo...

Re: Testing Ancestral Sources v7.6.5

Just to add, I re-installed 7.6.5 'over the top' and this was repeatable.

I uninstalled 7.6.5 and installed 7.6.4 and the Baptism 'save' then worked OK

First use of this version, entering a Baptism record I got this error box when saving to FH, and the continue button fails to commit the baptism to FH.

Re: 1921 England Census Military template

I'd like to think that no one would create a template that overwrites an existing one without warning. I don't particularly want to spend hours of my own personal time implementing changes that are very obscure and haven't come up before in the last 13 years and are easily resolved. That's fair eno...

Re: 1921 England Census Military template

Nick - Should there be a warning if we are apparently going to overwrite the default template? I don't think it's a particularly major issue as it is so easy to reset it again. Yes and no, as the OP hadn't warned about it overwriting in his post, I certainly didn't realise until I went to try and f...

Re: 1921 England Census Military template

Ideally, Valkrider who posted it should explain. The problem is that line 3 of that XML file is <Entry RecordType="Census" Country="England" Year="1921"> So it overwrites the Census for England in 1921. Presumably, the item Country="England" should be Country="England Military" Yes Mike, I've edite...

To be honest, I think it's worth reporting as a bug to start with.

I have created a case with CP myself as I am just starting with mapping, so I will report what they say.
