Re: Images

As always, thank you for your suggestions (and such prompt responses). They are greatly appreciated. 1. I have updated my profile to v.7 2. I don't believe any photos are excluded. Each one is flagged "cap" with a downward arrow. (I don't know what that means.) 3. BINGO ! What I needed to ...

I have been happily using FH (currently v.7.0.8.2). I export FH to my own personal website. Historically, I have had anywhere from one to dozens of photos attached to each individual. Now, when I export the program to my website, only one photo appears, per person. In <publish> <websites> <edit> <in...

Re: Multiple copies of media

Tatewise, this may not be the correct place to ask the question but are you researching that part of the Scott family which includes James Sibbald Scott, 1st Bt. of Dunninald?

Re: Multiple copies of media

Thank you for your prompt and complete response. Your assumption is correct that I identify entries as being the same because the titles are the same. I also double check by looking at the individual's profile, under "Media" I will take your advice on reading the fh Book, in the near futur...

Re: Multiple copies of media

Doubtless, your suspicions are correct. Clearly, I don't possess the accurate vocabulary. Which tutorial(s) do you recommend? I know that a photo (media file?) exists, in addition to the to the one with an X through it because, when I open "View All Media," I see both of them, next to one ...

Re: Multiple copies of media

When I view all media, each icon should have a photograph in it. In my case, many of the icons are blank, with a large X through it. In most cases the correct photograph is also there. Often, there are duplicates of the correct photo, as well. Unfortunately, the link from the FH program is usually t...

Re: Multiple copies of media

Tatewise, you are correct--I had conflated the plug in with the identification of media records with 0 links. I have now (with the help of you experts) figured out how to move multiple items to Named List and, then, delete them. 1. Highlight multiple records to delete>Edit>add to named list 2. Then,...

Re: Multiple copies of media

Having used the plug-in, is there a way, having created a list of records with 0 links, to delete/remove, say, just one ...

Re: Multimedia--show more images on website

Mike, sorry, I have been offline, for a while.
For the keys, I copied the Word document in the original file and pasted into the backup file.
I hope that is not a problem.
FYI I put the backup into a WD My Book Essential.
Best regards,

Re: Multimedia--show more images on website

Thank you so much. I'm now all backed up. For some reason, the folder with the keys came out in a format which couldn't be read but I did a quick little workaround for that. I hope for no more crashes but, if they come, I am now prepared. Your idea of a regular backup, via plugin, is a very good one...

Tatewise, BINGO!!!!!! I just ticked 55 for every single box on both the Family Group Sheet and the Individual Summary Report. I figured I could always dial back, if that were a problem. It seems to be fine on the FH view website--multiple photos showing. I haven't yet uploaded it to my personal URL ...

My next idea was to re-set, back to 1, which I did, ...

After attempting the free download, I attempted the download included in the email to my wife from Feb 15. An error message said that had expired. I then contacted Calico Pie and they sent me a different link to a free download and that installed v6.2.2, without need to use the key. So I'm off and r...

Dear Tatewise, As to the installation: Thank you for gently chastising me about saving keys. In fact, I DID LEARN FROM YOU, last time and I kept the keys written, in longhand, on paper. By far, the safest way to store anything. It seems I must now uninstall FH. Then install FH5, from a CD I made. Th...

I'll get my geek back and ask him, using the advice you have posted, if he can find the relevant files. I do have backups but I haven't been able to ascertain if they a...

v6.2.2 WIN 7 Hard drive (SSD) crashed and my geek cloned data, replaced hard drive, and (supposedly) replaced data. My FH program now works BUT it is missing information.
