I am running version 4 .0. on main page of my family web site it shows just under What next? Get the most out of your MyHeritage.com.family site : 73% complete, and this has not changed in the 12 months I have had MyHeritage, why doesn't it show 100%??
Just a little confused.

I'm confused to [confused]
MyHeritage appears to be a completely different web based system.
The only way it would interact with Family Historian is if you upload a gedcom file to it.

Jane, Thank you for replying ...I'm more confused now after reading your reply...I thought they were the same program as I have Family Historian v 4 and I received smart matches and its headed as MyHeritage so I gathered they were one and the same as Family Historian is the only genealogy program I have installed.

My Heritage is a web site, not a program on your PC. I suspect you might have signed up to it at some point.

My Heritage used to be GenCircles, and it was designed to work with the software program Family Tree Legends (somewhat like the way Family Tree Maker is designed to work with Ancestry.com). They were the ones who developed the SmartMatching system.
If you do a Google search for GenCircles and click the link, it directs you to My Heritage. If you choose 'cached' then it will show you a picture of the old GenCircles look and feel.
I have a registration on MyHeritage because I signed up for GenCircles before the switchover.
I tried them out prior to choosing Family Historian, but I couldn't get the GEDCOM upload to work reliably, and eventually decided against uploading a GEDCOM to any of these sites.
(I do have private family trees on Ancestry, but I use them as tools to collect hints for new source records coming online at Ancestry. If people want to see what is in my tree, they have to contact me, and then we can have a conversation (they can't just copy what might later turn out to be a wrong guess on my part).
In addition to uploading a GEDCOM, as I recall, you can also create a tree online -- no program on your own computer is needed. If you did so before you started to use Family Historian, that might be why you are getting the messages about what is on the site.
