Family Historian User Group

Chris,
I should add that I'm grateful to you for taking this on. I'll go back and check on my votes in a day or so when the dust has settled.
I did review all the items in your spreadsheet that you suggested closing for lack of interest and don't have a problem, except for a couple I've commented on.
Helen

Please note back when the wish list was started -ive votes were discussed and it was decided if you don't want something you should vote zero, just to make it easy to spot the ones you need to decide your vote on.

This means if you don't want something vote zero. Sorry to those who worked through changing the zero votes to 1.

The reason for this that even if you think an idea is 'silly' someone took the trouble to ask for it.

So items with votes of 2 or 3 are still valid items.

So I would expect

5 - Essential
4 - Worthwhile
3 - Would improve for some
2 - Could be useful
1 - Not a bad idea
0 - Don't see a need.


If you want to say it's a bad idea, vote 0 and leave a comment.

No way am I changing all those 1s to 0 again ...

Any reason for absence from spreadsheet of http://www.fhug.org.uk/wishlist/wldispl ... lwlref=239 ?

Isn't it a duplicate of http://www.fhug.org.uk/wishlist/wldispl ... wlwlref=86?

I've now added what I can for #239 to the spreadsheet.

Is it just me or have the following Wish List features been disrupted.

(1) Hovering on a TITLE in the main list used to popup a tooltip showing the DESCRIPTION but now it often includes all the leading HTML tags.

(2) The Delete Comment command no longer appears to function within individual Wish List entries.

Unfortunately when Chris updated the titles, he added html to the description and I have not yet had time to go through and take it all out again.

I am not sure why the delete is not working as I have not changed any of that code. Do you get an error or is the option simply not appearing?

The Delete option is there, but clicking it has no effect.

It's working on a comment I added. Can you tell me which comment you were trying to delete and I will try it for that one.

The Delete command has never worked for any of my comments, either.

The comments on 1st August in Wish List item 55.

I'll go through them and remove the html if that's ok.

I did it because the descriptions were very hard to read.

Unlike the forums where anybody had formated anything

Like this
and
this

it came out without format Like this and this.

I personally originally gave up reading many of them.

I would not touch any closed ones as it appears I reopen them.

Apologies if I've screwed up the database for everybody.

Chris the problem is not the html it's self but rather you put full headers and footers on the html you added which are causing the problem as the pages already have headers and footers on them.

So for WL#511, is it that I need to change example 1 (below) to example 2 or to example 3?

1)



 
 


I would appreciate one more flexibility on the Template Codes.
I like to translate my Sentences to Portuguese and other languages.
We could have the option to change the {individual} to other options
like:

{individual/xxx/xxx} this would help translating reports.

Eg.

{individual/ele/ela} = {individual/he/she}
{individual/lui/lei}




example 2)

?

None of those Chris. It should be as follows with no HTML nor tags, because only one of those should appear per HTML page, but any layout/style tags such as or or are OK.

Please look at WL#511 now

Is that correct?

As a 'Standard' User of FH 5 (and past FH4) and as a part- time genealogist, I feel that many of the discussions here are 'OTT' Over the Top. The average User of FH which I guess is more than 50% requires a good program (which it is) and good reports queries and plug-ins. I am sure if all users voted on the elements that they do actually use then you would see that many of them are not used by the average user. This in no way denigrates what this topic is trying to do but can we keep it simple stupid (KISS).
I love this this program and this User Group but I would like to see that some of the wishes of the average user are respected. Before I retired I was MS accredited Excel but this will go over the top of the majority of Users!!
Please can we have a program that is required by the majority and not just for the 'bright lads'. I am sure that this is what Calico is trying to achieve
Thanks Jane a Very Good program and User Group!! I would wish for nothing less.

511 is fine Chris, you can find the ones that need doing by searching for

All WL items with HTML at the start of the descriptions amended.

I have only left tags within the text.

I have also closed those which would not close due to having HTML as the first characters. It seems obvious now - sorry.

I suggest two more weeks then, if you're in agreement Jane, closing the ones users feel can be closed on the spreadsheet using the DROP reason.

On reinspecting Wish List I find that I cannot get to page 2 of 13. The 'next' click option and also the 'last' click option do not appear to work.This applies both to the top next and the bottom next !!
Is it no longer a proposition to vote on this list ??

Navigation through the list is working for me.

Like Helen, I can't reproduce the problem please can you post a sequence of things you did prior to trying to navigate so I can search for the issue.

Thanks to all for your comments.
Opened this morning and problem seems resolved. Obviously a boot was needed...how strange.
Thanks again

I often don't remember that the links change from P1 to P2 and click 'First' thinking it is 'Next'. Maybe that's what was happening?
