I have a person that is matched 999 times to other trees. Many of them (even with 60-75% match) have nothing in common (not the name, maybe 200 years apart, etc. etc)
What happened and how can I mark all of them false in one go instead of having to reject all of them using many days?
At present Family Tree Builder only allows rejecting or confirming a single match at a time. Doing this on group of matches is a good idea and we will consider it for our future versions. Thanks for this feedback.
(As you can see for some reason you answer was listed as written by me?)
I love the function of SmarMatch. It is really cool. But to match a person where the only matching info is gender (the fact that the two persons are female) should not score enough to be considered a match IMHO. Though you might be right that it is sometimes (in my example) also a partial name match.
The best thing would be to try to adjust the engine to consider these cases and just being female and having a name that to some extend is similar to another person should not be listed as a match I think. Many have several hundreds of years difference, location difference, spouse difference, number of brothers/sisters difference.
Another idea would be to have a setting to only have matches above a certain % show and mailed to you. To have to go through 1000 matches is time consuming.
The funny thing is that it is quite possible to mark a person as "partner", but in the statistics, for one thing, he/she still turns up as husband/wife! Guess this program is intended for people with less free outlook on the subject of marriage ...
Hi,
Currently, we don't support these kind of relationships.
Nonetheless, we are working on an exciting new version of the online tree that will allow you to add / show partners and other complex relationships.
I am sorry for the inconvenience.
Thank you,

I have not got access to my old email and I forgot the password. I need to know how I can regain acess to my myheritage account since the password can't be e-mailed to me.
Hello Esther! My sister has the same problem, she does not have access to her old email. Is there any chance she can regain access to the website? Thank you!
For over a year MyHeritage worked fine. Since I re-installed it after it could not find my removable hard drive, it's doing weird stuff.
When I go into a name, it looks ok, when I right click, it says there are 40 siblings 3 spouses and 19 children. Even though there are the correct number when you look at them saved.
Another thing that happened. A female spouse ended up next to another female. I didn't put it there. I just wonder what other stuff is jumbled up now. Regards Jean
I'm trying to update my email address in my profile.
But whenever I try it tells me that the new email address I'm trying to enter has already been taken. This is frankly impossible since I have just created the new account!!
I really need to change the email as the old one is expiring. What do I do?
Not realising how the software works I have created a site using firefox and imported a gen file,
now I realise that I can just publish from the software on my pc, does the publish process overwrite all of the existing soite or does it only write any new data,
second, when creating the site from a gen file i imported 139 persons, now Im wanting to publish 141 persons from the software it says I can only publish 110 persons,
is it better to delete all persons on the site and them publish ??
