I have been having a play about today with my new software - i am completely new to FH so please bear with me on this
I have added a source to myself - my birth certificate and I followed to How To page here and it was good.
I set the automated source citatiton on and added my fathers occupation at the time.
My question is i seem to have 7 citations listed in the Records window, I know its a high number and I did click on the Add Citation button a few times within my Individual profile
I have searched here and the question has been asked how can you see where the citations are, so I followed the advice but i only have listed my husband and my father with one link each, so I don't really understand
also How do you go back to edit the source - ie make it a primary evidence or change some text as I cannot see how to do this either
Sorry for sounding dim - I am sure its very obvious - and I havn't even started with censues yet!!!!
I'm assuming you mean that you think you should have just 2 citations linking your 'birth fact' to the source and your father's 'occupation fact' to the source. If your father's record was created while auto-source was turned on then another citation would have been created linking the whole person to the source. As the source has 7 citations its possible that you accidentally created redundant additional links between your birth and the source or the occupation and the source which you would want to remove. If you view your birth fact, under the Fact tab, then you should see the citations listed in the yellow section (probably at the bottom) and you can delete citations there.
If you need further more detailed info please just ask.
