Thanks Phil - I see it is done already.

While I'm on here, I still can't get into the site using .co.uk. It just keeps saying "we are performing some essential maintenance" but I can get in if I use .com. Is this just another bug that will be sorted out?

Can anyone tell me how to put a post on the living relatives board? New to this board and have no idea what to do. Help menu just gives a blurb about being psychologically prepared for rejection, yada, yada, yada.

Appreciate any help.

Hi Phil,

The instructions about the Living Relatives board in the "Help Clinic" need to be changed as it still says in there that no one can reply to posts on the Living Relatives Board. Newbies may get confused if there is different advice in different places.

You can now post replies on the living relatives board.

We do recommend that you still give consideration to what is posted in the reply, maybe even just to say that you have sent a PM (personal mail via the Send Message link - I think that's what it stands for).

Apologies for the delay. Phil

Could you please explain why a post that was reported as being duplicate last night (not by me) and the question answered on Find Ancestors, has now been reinstated.

When is this change going to happen as this board serves no purpose the way it is. It just means other people will look up the same info that has already been found.

As the thread with the info on was also reported you have deleted that instead....well that does make sense!!!!

Christopher and John


this thread has absolutely nothing to do with trees ........ which is what you are talking about.


There are other threads on this Suggestion board making the same suggestion as you


May I suggest that uou find one of those threads, or start one of your own.


This thread is announcing much-needed changes to the Finding Living Ancestors board.

I'm with Christopher on the above comment. I have a number of marriages between cousins on my tree. At the moment the only way around this seems to be to have one of the partners in the marriage featuring twice in the tree - once with their parents and once with their marriage partner. This makes the tree very messy to follow

Thank you GR...

Any way that we can have anything that should be on the Ancestors board put there when posted on living Rellies instead..
Or in fact get posts moved to the appropriate boards when on the wrong ones?

Joy

Joy Report 13 Jun 2011 12:13

Would you post this on the announcements board, too, please? Thank you.
