Re: Search and Replace Plugin

Hi Mike sorry I should clarify. I meant one link per person given that the whole household is listed. Whereas If I understand the problem you have solved it is to do with a person being recorded twice in the Rich text.

Thanks once again.

Re: Search and Replace Plugin

Hi Both I have tested the new Plugin in my Test DB and the issue did not repeat. 85 records updated and no links lost. Thank you very much indeed. I just need to work through the list of missing links in my 'live' database and correct and hopefully the problem will be history. One thought though - I...

Re: Search and Replace Plugin

Thank you both very much. It would appear you have found and fixed this issue. I'll try the new Plugin this evening and report back.

Well done indeed.

Cheers

Re: Search and Replace Plugin

Hi Mike. Thanks for looking into this further. I can't do much until this evening. But I always check what AS7 has created when it arrives in FH7 and have never seen missing links immediately after creation. It occurs sometime after by some yet to be discovered task. I did ask CP could it be found s...

Re: Search and Replace Plugin

Hi Mike yes I'm using AS7 for everything just now. And no I have seen upset links for different Source Types. EG Census records where only a single link would be present.

Search and Replace Plugin

@ Mike Tate Mike I ran this Plugin this evening to change some rich text within various Source records. Search = "The Mark of" Replace = "X The mark of" The result was that the linked Individual within the text box that the change occurred was set to an unknown state. IE, underlined with dashes. See...

Re: Rename Source Media Plugin

Yes fair enough Mike. I take your point. I have managed to work around the problem by shortening my folder names once again. They are becoming less meaniful by way of naming but it works to solve the problem.

Thank you...

Rename Source Media Plugin

Evening all. I think I'm right in saying Windows 10 now supports Long File Name support up to 32767 characters. So I'm puzzled if this error message is a Plugin issue or a FH7 issue? Why does the error message appear to blame Windows? Or is it a Path Length issue? Please advise. PS - I have the Regi...

Re: Fact Date Sort Question

Thank you Mike - the Fact Sort options on the All Tab solved the problem.

By the way - None of the other options worked.

All facts and associated dates came via Ancestral Sources 7. They are as far as I understand simple calculated values.

Re: Fact Date Sort Question

Hi Mike
The first 1842 date just before the 24 Sep 1842 is a birth derived from a Census source. With Place details given.
The second 1842 after the 24 Sep 1842 is birth derived from a Marriage source. Age given at Marriage but no Place detail.

Thanks for looking at this...

Fact Date Sort Question

Can anyone help to explain why the Fact Date 1842? would appear between the two more precise dates? When another 1842? appears before the Fact dated 24 Sep 1842?

I'm stumped. Thank you.

Evening All
I have just been advised that FH7 version 7.0.3 has been released for download. I don't have the release notes, but I have requested these and will publish here if I'm provided with them from CP.

Re: Web Clipper

Thank you both. Strange indeed. There were other products in the review perhaps they inadvertently got confused with one of those others.
There is nothing to be found in FH help either.

Hi All
In this months Who Do You Think You Are magazine, there is a review on FH7. In the Pros & Cons, (Pros) it mentions:
Web Clipper makes it possible to import facts from most websites
Can someone please expand on this Web Clipper function, I have never seen or heard of it.

Thank You

Well I complained and this is the response I received, so it would seem the more complaints the better. They make no mention of the function to select and go to specific page numbers.

Re: FMP census and the 1939 register

Sorry if you don't like what FMP have done here. It was a request from me to do this as navigating to Page 1 of the Census Schedule to see the area covered was hard work going page by page.
