It would also be nice if we had the option of seeing how we got our data when doing smart matches. (i.e. under each item such as dates or birth and death and places of birth and death) it showed 1. Birth Certificate, 2 Death Certificate, 3. WikiTree, 4. Smart Match, or 5. some other. I call that an option because I'm sure not everyone is that detail oriented.
When will you start developing a Windows Phone 8 and a Windows RT version of your apps? Within a year, Windows 8 will overtake Windows 7 and it's already on every new PC sold. You could get some real exposure by answering yor competition's Windows 8 app already in the Windows Store.
What I meant was, if anybody commented on a posted photo - that photo (not photo of the user) is again displayed unlike in Facebook where the photo being commented stays and only comments add-up.
In a group photo, even when many faces are tagged in one sitting by a single person, multiple copies of the same photo come up in the home page,showing each tagging seperately, unnecessarily cluttering the home page.
I think this problem can be solved if a' All done' tab is introduced and all information combined on a single photo, after the 'All done; tab is clicked
I have often looked at the tree of another member who I think might have some of my family in the tree. I have looked through the People list (family Tree tab in Web site, click on People in the drop down menu) but it only shows a few people on each page and unless you are looking for one specific person it is far too time-consuming to be useful in a quick search of surnames.
Could that list display a simple list of family names (without initials) before the detailed list? That should be simple to arrange and it would be great; I could quickly and easily glance at another web site to see if family are likely to be there, then search if it looks as though it would be worth the effort. If it is practical a number in brackets after the name, to show how many of them are in the tree, would be wonderful.
The list of names that you have mentioned is a list of names that appears after the site manager has personally invited those people via their email address's therefore not all people that appear in the family tree are necessarily represented within the list.
However your suggestions have been noticed and it may be possible that our development team will take these into consideration for future updates.
Hi, Dean, and thank you for your reply. HOWEVER, I am NOT talking about the list of site members!!!
Please re-read my letter, carefully. I spoke of the FULL List of 'PEOPLE' in the family tree, sometimes thousands of them, maybe ten to a page and hundreds of pages.
If there were a summary of surnames, showing the number of people with each surname, it would greatly simplify a quick evaluation of whether that tree would contain helpful information about members of my own family. At present it is not practicable to look through the full list; I have tried it a couple of times.
Other members' family trees are a great resource but I can't take the time to slowly look through each one that looks interesting.
As I have previously mentioned your suggestion is a great one and this I have forwarded to our Development team for consideration with future updates to the family site.
There is a difference between your MyHeritage account information and the info in your family tree.
Your MyHeritage account had your birth date listed as 1999. I fixed it for you.
If you need to make changes to your MyHeritage account in the future, hold your mouse over your name in the upper right corner of the screen and then click on Account Settings. "Edit Profile" to make changes.
Self (site manager) and other site members are not getting reminders about family events by email, though I have checked all the boxes correctly under preference.
Why not start a separate project for your pets if it is your pets pedegree you want to record.
Or, under Facts for a person you can add your own Events and that could be I.E. Pets.
If it is all your ancestors you want to add pets to, I think you can only record a generation or two back in time before all records are missing. To add such function for so little information would be a waste of developing time when so much other things need to be fixed.
By the way I loved my Birman cat Musse whom I had for 17 years and now I have Cornelis and Felicia who are also Birman cats.
