Hi Nick, repeated the test on the sample project. No problem experienced. Issue fixed. Thank you. David

Hi Nick, Using a clean copy of the FH sample project added a new baptism for Helen Mary ADDISON (12) using AS loaded with FH running via the plugin. I ignored the warning about the existing baptism entry. A new baptism was created together with a source (41). Saved and closed AS, reloading the proje...

Hi Nick, thanks for your fast response. The only things I copy into the note section is details of where I found the information. Nothing that includes links to the individuals. I believe I was working in the same way as usual. I closed FH each time and ran file validate. (actually I run that quite ...

referring back to my previous post I have tried entering a new 1881 England census and got these two error reports on reloading FH. In the 12.11 report Gedcom Id=S2311 refers to the source just created by AS; there are seven individuals on the census return of which three were added as children and ...

Hi Nick, I have got a curious problem using this latest version. I added a new baptism and all went well. However when reloaded the project I had a error message from FH which provided a Gedcom report link to non-existent Individual record. To check if this arose using AS rather than some other even...

Thank you that did the trick. As you say it produced a wide result set!

Thank you Nick - I will download and test in the morning,

Hi Folks: When I try to run the "Find Duplicate CItations" plugin I get the following error: https://i.postimg.cc/VvrSMwJy/error-running-Find-Duplicate-Citations.png I already ran the "Delete old FH6 Plugin Module Files" plugin to see if that was the issue. I'm running the latest version of Fh7 (7....

Thanks for your reply Nick. Re 2 was only thinking of the note box - so yes a feature request please.

Hi Nick, Three issues I have noticed: 1. I have amended my auto-text templates for the England Census to include some rich text formatting of enumeration district info before the grid. I no longer have the Autofit button. However I still set the message not clicked as shown in the screen shot. 2. In...

Is there a utility that could check file names for their full path length?

With the Media tab open you can Add -> Other Media (change media type to all files in bottom right corner) to create a media record.
Then the Research Note can be linked to that

Sorry I didn't mean to raise another round of debate! So just advice in the help file to remind users my be all that is needed. (It was an easy matter to set the default folders to where I wanted. Once I had set the defaults to my shared One Drive folders all my projects and backups were immediately...

Yes, understood. To me the 'cancel' on the last screenshot is the problem. What am I cancelling? 'close' would be better. I have run the restore on my lap top and it works well. screenshot cmd.jpg I did notice all the plugins, census tabs and property box and source/citation settings have carried ac...

Thanks Mark, Runs very fast, will test the restore on another machine later. Once the Command screen has opened and closed one is left with Screenshot 2022-04-23 104150.jpg Clicking OK gives Screenshot 2022-04-23 104251.jpg Is it possible to amend second image to give user reassurance of successful ...

Hi Mark,

I thought I would give this a whirl, however I am faced with this error message:
.

I have not tried any of the earlier verisons.

Thank you for your work on this.

Go to the records window and select the Sources.

Select those source records you wish to merge.

Select Edit - Merge/compare records.

Thank you.

Hi Mike, I created a project called ɖʗɲɣʘtest.fh_proj using my large Family Search derived tree. The full folder path is C:\Users\dacoo\OneDrive\Documents\Family Historian Projects\ɖʗɲɣʘtest\ɖʗɲɣʘtest.fh_data There are various names such as Brian Ardcenn /mac Muiredaig Ó Dúnlainge/ born in Cúige Lai...

OK, I'll give that a go and report back.

Hi Mike, Have downloaded and run against my main project. Looking good. Also ran against another project with about 30,000 people and similar number of families. It took about 1 minute to run. The result set took moments to appear with 170,180 records in result set!!!! That doesn't surprise me in th...

David, that's what I said. But if the OP didn't access the extra materials at the time she originally viewed or downloaded the main image, the only way back to them is to repeat the search. Revisiting the main image through "My Records" only offers a file download of the main image again, or it did...
