The settings on my calender section is as you have mentioned. However, it still shows the b'day of the deceased on the right where the "upcoming events" section is. I think it should instead show the death anniversary of that particular person.
If MyPhotoAlbum.com offers the back-end support for this, then it's doable. It's a matter of us receiving sufficient demand for this. Till now, we haven't received enough demand but we have noted your request!
please be advised about the following matter. I use Windows XP Home, IE 6.0, FTB 3.0.0.820. One MyHeritage member (let call him Kent) asked me to looked through his site. I would like to help him. I sended a request to be a member of his site, he added me in his list of members. I recieved a message at my email box about this and went to the link in the email. I started to view the pages of Kent's site and click on Downloading a tree in "Manage trees".
Then I started that downloaded backup of Kent's tree on my PC. I had FTB 3.0.0.820 by that time and that moment i was adviced to download the newer version. I downloaded it. Then i open the tree, made some changes and published the tree on Kent's site. After that the IE browser automatically open Kent's site and associate me with the manager named Kent! On the top of the screen there was "Welcome, Kent!" , i recieved a message from me to him, i saw in the list of members that I, Kent, am online now and Esperanza is now offline. I had access to any part of the site, i was able to add new members or delete the news and so on...
Please check this feature and make the security OK!
Thanks Nadya. We pinpointed the bug thanks to your help, and fixed it. It will be deployed to the site tomorrow. Note that it is not a serious problem, because the tree is only available for download by site members, and these are people invited by the site manager, and thus enjoy his/her complete trust. That's why it was never reported until today. But thanks to your assistance, it's now found and fixed (wait till tomorrow!)
Thanks for your reply. I wrote "serious" just to draw your special attention to my post. IMHO it is unpleasant when anybody from the members could have manager access without my agreement.
several times i tried to start searching of people, but the system can not understand cyrillic letters. When i put down the name and surname, chek Megadex and click "Search" the system offers me to check 5 variants and shows me my variant with only little squares instead of letters. Does not it work with cyrillic at all or it is just a problem in a font?
Thanks Nadya. You spotted a bug in the Megadex suggestions page. The code attempted to uppercase the first letter and lowercase the rest, e.g. smith -> Smith; and this didn't work well with cyrillic letters (other than that, they are supported fine). We will be fixing this bug in the next day or two.
Thank you for offering to help fix some translation errors.
We really appreciate such help. Please get in touch with daniel@myheritage.com who is in charge of our translations. If you have a small number of errors to fix, you can email him, and if the number is more substantial or you want to help us with Dutch translations on a more regular basis, he can send you a translation tool that will make it very easy for you to make the changes directly and send us the result.
Thank you for offering to help fix translations.
Please get in touch with daniel@myheritage.com who is in charge of our translations.
He will be very happy to hear from you.
I also wanted to thank you personally for being very helpful on our forums.
When working with a large tree, it would be useful to have some sort of idea where we are in the tree based on a chosen reference person - not sure how to best do this, maybe a list of surnames (including first name) to show the line that is clickable across the top of the screen (or bottom) - make it hidable for those that don't need it or only want to refer to it.
When you go to add a citation source, the pull-down list of available citations is not alpha sorted - it's sorted in the order added to the project. It is very time consuming looking for previously used citations. You can press the first letter of the citation repeated times to cycle through those sources starting with that letter, but an alpha sorted list would be helpful.
The chart generation function assumes I am printing on 8.5x11 paper. I have a PDF writer that I can create custom paper sizes - I should be able to go to some sort of page setup to chose the paper size for the chart.
Very frustrating to find plenty of BOULTS, only to find the sites a re Private Sites, and there seems to be no way of contacting the site owner.
I suggest that when a private site is reached, we should always have the option of sending a message/email to the site owner, to be able to put a case for having some access to the site.
Thanks for your suggestion. Unfortunately, some site managers really don't want to be contacted! One cannot force a person who does not want to be contacted, to receive messages by others. But the fact that some sites are private doesn't necessarily mean that thir owners don't wish to be contacted. Please help us by specifying in more detail how you searched for BOULTS family members (since there are many ways of doing that) and post here a URL of such a search, from which you were unable to contact the various people you wanted to contact. We will analyze that and check whether we can make some improvements to help you.
If you used the Genealogy Center to do your search, note that you can sort your matches not only by individual but also by site, by clicking the Sites link in the sort line of the results. There you have 'Contact Site Manager' links that you can use even for private sites.
In any case, I'm waiting for more info from you on how you conducted your search and I promise to retrace the search you did and see how we can help you get in touch with the Site Managers if that functionality is not available today.
