Re: Importing Templates from RootsMagic
Hi Mark, Thanks. I’m an academic and have also engaged in empirical research. I have long been concerned with citing sources accurately and succinctly from the moment I began conducting research into my own family history back into the early-1970s. I remember attempting to follow style guides such a...

Re: Importing Templates from RootsMagic
Hi Mark, I've successfully imported and converted my templates - I even put them into their own "collection" and everything seems to be working! In my case I only had three templates (plus a fourth "master" templated that I never use - it was for development only). I've used ONLY those three templat...

Re: Importing Templates from RootsMagic
Hi Mark, Wow! Great information! Ironically, I just sat down at the computer again and was about to remove the material from "Bibliography" when I saw your message. Actually, I agree that the citation level perhaps shouldn't be in the Bibliography (as long as that information is provided elsewhere s...

Re: Importing Templates from RootsMagic
Hi Mark, Thanks for your help. I've attached a copy of the template that I exported from RM7 and change the file extension to .txt In addition, all four templates (actually, three are merely subsets of the "Master Template" are found on the RM4 Templates site: https://sites.google.com/site/rm4templa...

Re: Importing Templates from RootsMagic
That’s very interesting. This was imported directly from the RootsMagic file. I’ve tried everything I could find but am currently stuck.

Re: Importing Templates from RootsMagic
Thanks, ColeValleyGirl! I found it! I was trying to attach the screen captures using the menu at the top, not the bottom of the box. I've attached two screen captures: 1. A copy of the "Source Template Definition Editor" that includes one of the templates (note a few items, such as the "prompts" did...

Re: Importing Templates from RootsMagic
Hi Mark, Ah! I thought so! Not only have I found templates to be extremely useful in RM but their (new) implementation in FH has also made improvements that I've asking the folks at RM to include for many, many years! Bravo to FH! The "wizards" look like an interesting feature but that's something I...

Re: Importing Templates from RootsMagic
Hi Mark, Thanks for the response. So far, I'm following you. In fact, FH tech support pointed me at your plugin - it's very helpful. At the moment, I'm having a problem with an error message that I receive while trying to see if I can edit the templates I created10 years ago (!!) and which I've used...

Importing Templates from RootsMagic
Hi all, while I'm new to FH, I'm a very long-time user of RootsMagic and have just found FH. So far, I am VERY impressed with FH (and continue to be disappointed with RM - which seems to have simply gone the wrong direction, especially with RM8). Based on what I'm seeing in FH, I'm strongly consider...
