Start up problem

Just recently when starting FH I get no response for at least a minute until the menu appears. Using Task Manager I can see that McAfee On Access Scanner shoots to around 50% and over 100MB. The menu eventually appears (several copies if I am impatient and try starting another copy) Does FH access e...

Re: Publish - Create a Website

Thanks Mike and Jane Actually I'm quite happy with creation date only on the home page and have put it manually in the welcome text. It's possibly worth automatically adding it to the text "Created with Family Historian 5" in any future development. The plugin sounds interesting - how does it compar...

Re: Publish - Create a Website

Thanks Mike

I eventually found the Spouse shortcut in the Help and had just tested it before I got this last message.
So I've got the Individual pages on my test version working the way I want.

I'll try the Plug In soon

Re: Publish - Create a Website

Mike and Jane

Apologies - somehow I had picked up a style sheet from one of my earlier tests.
I've recreated it using a small tree an replace the version on the website.

Thanks

Re: Publish - Create a Website

Mike I copied the whole folder as created by the wizard. I had ticked the box to centre the text. Perhaps there was an Apply box I missed. The report layout currently has the default item "Spouses" I couldn't see how to create "Spouse1" etc My first attempt seemed to pick the wrong ones. Should I be...

Re: Publish - Create a Website

Thanks Mike I think I now have a useable tree. I've uploaded it to Rootsweb accessed via my old tree at www.wdeverell.freeserve.co.uk It would have been nice to have a version like that from Generations as the basic structure is the same just displayed differently. I even tried importing my GED back...

Re: Publish - Create a Website

Thanks Mike.
That's where I'd got to.
Tried a custom marriage fact in the Main section but that only gives the first marriage even though it lists multiple spouses! It was worth trying but hey ho.

Re: Publish - Create a Website

I like the 2nd option and I'm nearly there.

In the marriage section I can't work out how to get the marriage details after the Spouse and before the Children.
I can live with it.

Re: Publish - Create a Website

Thanks for the comments. The marriage info is correctly in the database. I've now got the marriage info displayed (can't remember exactly what I changes) but I came to the same conclusion as one of the responses that Husband, Wife and Children all display the BMD info and that there is no way round ...

Publish - Create a Website

I am trying to create a simple website containing only basic BMD data. I've nearly got there but I've hit 2 problems. The Family sheet is not showing the marriage details. It is showing details for all the children of the marriage when I only want a list. I am trying to get as close as I can to a tr...

Re: Create Named List from External File

Mike

Option 1 has done the job.
I was wary because the Generations equivalent would have created problems
because it generates duplicate spouses for merged individuals.

Thanks for your advice.

Re: Create Named List from External File

Mike Thanks for the suggestions. Some of the flags were set based on Date of birth or baptism for Individual or spouse. Others were set manually for various reasons. I've looked at your suggestions but the only one that appeals is a Plug-in but I'm a newbie to FH. There are about 6400 individuals wi...

Create Named List from External File

I have recently converted from Generations to FH5. I originally had a lot of records with FLAGS such as Privacy but these do not transfer. But I have been able to create a report from Generations listing the Names and IDs for a named flag in TAB separated fields. Is there a way of creating a named l...
