I have tried merging the trees as well but it duplicated nearly all the existing names. Of course I had backed up before trying it so did not lose anything. Just restored the backup.
Hmm.. ok. Maybe I'll give it a try. I used a program called Branches (www.branchesgenealogy.com) that can prune down trees and export them to gedcom's. maybe I'll try trimming out the duplicate parts of the tree and just try importing the part of the tree that isn't already in my existing tree.
If I chose to ignore a tree; will that tree's manager be notified? I've got 2 matches from a tree managed by someone whose last correspondance with me was less then kind...i don't want to hear from her again. So I'd like to know if she'd be notified if I choose to ignore her tree
Is it possible to limit a member to only have access to one family tree?
If I have two family trees in one site, I would like to have some members access only one of these family trees.
Is this possible, or do I have to create an additional site?
Is it posible to relocate the Message Boards from Apps to Home front page so it can be visible to everyone. As a Site Manager of my Family Website, I would like to have the full control of re-arranging and moving Certain pages or links to the front Home page and customize it according to my needs. The reason I'm asking for this changes is because most of the members can't see cartain pages and they don't botter to search for it.
As you probably noticed, we made some changes to the site in the last couple of months, and we are planning on a lot more.
Your idea is great, and I agree that letting Site Managers to customize more of the site is important. I will let our product designers know and they will consider if and how to implement it.
I'm looking forward for that to happend and I had previously asked if possible to add A live Chat, voice and Video conferencing option Tool to the MyHeritage website, so we can be able to have some communication with online members of the family just like on the Facebook page.
When you use the relationship report option on the online tree; it doesn't give the relationship on it's a close relationship between the two people. However on FTB when you do the same thing; it shows the relationship regardless of how close or distant the relationship is. Might I suggest changing the site version so that it's similar to that used in the program; so it can show a relationship regardless of if it's close.
Thanks Lior, that's what I was referring to. If you included less information, just year of birth & death, then could it be possible to include more steps?
The relationship report is one of the things I like the best - and can not really use it, since I have over 5-6000 people in my tree. The FTB - takes 10 seconds and you have the whole thing there, no matter amount of generations. Really irritating. In addition, on the smart-searches, I get up "direct ansestor" once in a while. If it is under 20 generations, support told me - but what's the point? We want this information. If I had known this - I would have taken another system. This was never told anywhere. This pisses me off 100%.
