Other aspects that may need further consideration are Fact Witnesses and Associated Person links. Currently the Plugin does NOT include those people referenced via such links (and a Query would find it very tricky). Do either of you expect to need such extra people to be included in your exported G...

I use the same report for my website but I have the "Omit all references to Individuals with Record Flag "Private" " as the only one of the three privacy related options on the first Options page ticked (all my "living" Individuals have their Private and Living flags set to On/Yes). Albeit using di...

1) "He made a Will on 10 July 1997. XXXXXXXXXX, YYYYYYYYYY and ZZZZZZZZZZ were beneficiaries". I was just surprised that there is NO mention of his marriage to my mother on his page. I understand the privacy option, and issue, but when it is a joint event then it disappears even for the deceased per...

I use a custom "Individual Narrative Report" (for Web, CD or DVD) for my website. I have "Privacy" option set to "Show basic details only". My father has died but my mother is still alive. On the generated web page for my father, their Marriage details do not show but my mother is listed among the B...

Will Benson said: It seems that some ease-of-use has been removed Could you give an example? I was specifically referring to Show Media. I primarily use the "Records Window". In V 3.1.2 I clicked the Camera icon and the image showed in another window, with the size dependent on my choices. I could ...

Having just upgraded from V 3.1.2 this is one thing I have found to be a backward step - the ability to view Media. It seems that some ease-of-use has been removed to (a) make the product look prettier; and (b) attract users of other products. My ideology, in anything, has always been "complete some...

Thank you.

Support has been contacted.

Okay, I may have found a bug. (1) With "Spouse Parents" unticked and "Spouse Events/Attrs" unticked I get the following :- sample 1.jpg (2) But with "Spouse Parents" unticked and "Spouse Events/Attrs" ticked I get the following :- sample 2.jpg Of course, the result in (2) is what I require but witho...

Good idea. I'll check out the Sample Project. Cheers.

Therefore, you should clear the Spouse Parents option, and Save Report As > Custom Report Type > Individual Narrative (for Web, CD or DVD) . Then use that Report type in the wizard Step 3 so you are sure the Spouse Parents option remains clear. Great advice, thank you. I even reset all of the optio...

When you run the wizard, at Step 3 - Choose Report Template, ensure you have chosen the correct Primary Report Type, then click Options button and check the Spouse Parents option. Thanks, Mike, I do that. But I uncheck it because I do not want the spouse's parents showing as in my V3 example. Here ...

Having just upgraded to V6, I am attempting to produce a website that looks as much like my live V3 website as possible. I specifically use the "Individual Narrative" as the Primary Page type. I believe that I have found a discrepancy with regard to Spouse Parents, even though I have the "Spouse Par...

Thanks Mike.

It was an observation.

I love these two plugins, particularly as I have been maintaining a website for 10 years for family members around the world. So any assistance in making it easier and looking slicker is greatly appreciated

I can't get enough of this V6

I am loving V6 (having just upgraded from V3), and am now onto the Plugin functionality. This is specifically for tatewise - when the "Improve Website ..." plugin starts, it appears over the FH Window (which is good) but when the "Ancestral Sources .." plugin starts it pushes FH Window to the backgr...

Thank you.

Well, I deleted the "ThumbCache.dat" file and the thumbnail displayed correctly. I was just hoping that there was a function within FH to do it.

Anyway, thanks for the suggestions. I'm loving V6 after 10 years on V3

How do you do a "cache refresh"?

I had to rename a media file and I could no longer get the thumbnail to display. Is one able to refresh the FH cache?

Thank you.

A massive change from V3 to V6 - I'm enjoying it.

I have just upgraded from V3 to V6, after 9 years :) The first time I used the V6 "Create a Website" function I also received this error, even though it appeared to create every required file. I discovered it was because I had set my fhstyle.css file to read-only because I didn't want it overwritten...

Sorry

I suppose it wasn't something I was specifically looking for.

But thanks for taking care of it.

Not a problem, but still a bug.

My ancestor has his marriage date set as "between 10 November 1889 and 31 December 1889" in Family Historian, or "DATE BET 10 NOV 1889 AND 31 DEC 1889" in the GED file.

However, Ancestral Sources displays it as "Marriage: BET 10 0NOV at xxxxxxxxx".

I did all of that and it now works.

Thank you.

I have a 64-bit system and the size of the installation file is, as you state, 6,041,214 bytes.

I have downloaded it okay but on installation I am getting the following error :-

C:\Program Files\Ancestral Sources\Ancestral Sources.exe

An error occurred while trying to copy a file:
The source file is corrupted.

Is there any way to prevent creating a Census record with blank "Place" and "Address" fields? I pressed 'Save' before I filled in those fields.
