* Using FH without new programming?

[Steven Monrad]

Having purchased the program and starting the documentation, all of which seems excellent, we have a general question.
Is it possible as an end-user to accomplish standard tasks with the program and existing plug-ins without learning and making custom LUA/plugins?
The two most difficult tasks which we may consider standard seem to be importing of source/citation information and output of a web page.

Program version is up-to-date, hardware is capable and we use many sophisticated software programs including databases
but do not wish to program.
Thank you

The short answer is a resounding YES ~ definitely no programming required

Regarding your first question, see the how_to:key_features_for_newcomers|> Key Features for Newcomers and the sections on Sources Methods 1 & 2 and Ancestral Sources are all about Source Citations.

There are two general techniques for creating web sites.

1. Use FH Publish > Create a Website wizard and advice how_to:make_family_tree|> Make a Family Tree CD/DVD or Website.
2. Export your Project to to a web based product such as Ancestry, FindMyPast, MyHeritage, ZoomPast, GedSite, The Next Generation (TNG), etc, etc, (many of which are free) and for that you would use plugins:help:export_gedcom_file:export_gedcom_file|> Export Gedcom File Plugin.

See links:index|> Member Web Sites for examples of both techniques.
