That is because you are using =ItemIf(...) instead of =TextIf(...)

The :SURNAME qualifiers are not a data reference, but produce a textual name.

So =ItemIf(...) forces FH to ignore the :SURNAME qualifiers and just use the whole NAME data references.

It is not me who wants to find duplicate Name Citations. I'm busy enough as it is!

Dave, would it be possible for you to ask CP to update that plugin? Use their Support Ticket System at https://support.calico-pie.com/open.php Request CP to not only include Name Citations, but also whole record Citations, and preferably all other Citations, so that the plugin behaviour matches its ...

I guess you are referring to the FHUG KB Downloads 2021 Converted Icons . Have you downloaded the ZIP file via the link below the screenshot image of the icons? Have you extracted the contents of the ZIP file via right-click Extract All... ? Have you located the C:\ProgramData\Calico Pie\Family Hist...

Dave, the version I posted yesterday is NOT the Plugin Store version. (It just happens to keep the same name.) As I said yesterday, I have adapted it to include Names , so please try it. I am tempted to ask CP to update their plugin to include Name Citations, and all other possible Citations for FH ...

Yes, that is an excellent article with much good advice.
However, it omits the recent Ancestry Synchronization plugin designed specifically to obtain 'hints' on Ancestry.

Try Find Duplicate Citations which includes Names as well as Facts.

At about line 4133 in the plugin script, it handles new Event or Residence facts where an Attribute value exists. Instead of "SOUR2" use the "NOTE2" tag, but you must cope with the possibility that a local Note already exists. If it exists the Attribute value text must be appende...

I should have mentioned that you must tick the option: Use their Facts to decide if each person was at home or abroad on the missing Census dates ? Otherwise, the plugin will include anyone alive in the Census date range. Click on the header of the ancestry, findmypast, familysearch, ot myheritage c...

Hopefully, you are working in a copy of your Project, otherwise, the Individuals will be permanently deleted. Is your list of records to delete in a Named List ? If so then right-click its name and choose Delete Listed Records... See FHUG Knowledge Base > Delete One or Many Records . Please explain ...

Welcome to the FHUG Colin. Could you provide a little background of what you were using on your old computer. e.g. Was it an earlier FH version? Did you use Ancestral Sources? Have you loaded your GEDCOM as a Project? Have you clicked the yellow Show Sources button in the Property Box toolbar? image...

Please try Lookup Missing Census Facts plugin Version 4.8.1 Date 29 Mar 2024. It fixes the problem with filtering Individuals according to their location versus the Census location & date. Note that Individuals with negligible Fact details will be assumed to live in the Census location. It also...

I must apologise as it seems a bug has crept into the plugin to do with the country filtering
Let me investigate and I will provide a fixed version for you to try tomorrow.

No, let the plugin do that searching for you!
It will find the people who are alive in the right country for a particular Census.

I accept the policy for prototyping plugins, even though I not convinced having links are better that posting plugin sources directly. I am personally always cautious about clicking links as you cannot always be sure what is on the end. The policy of banning plugin attachments to forums is for the ...

Try my Lookup Missing Census Facts plugin. It has filters for most Census years and countries available online. It skips people who have an appropriate Census fact, or were not alive in the appropriate country at the time. It is near impossible to use a Report, List or Query to determine what countr...

If you still have some of those Attributes in use for some Individuals then I suggest you keep the definitions. Deleting the definitions does not delete the Attribute facts, but does leave their characteristics undefined. i.e. The narrative Sentence will use default wording which will probably look ...

Presumably, you have deleted all those Attribute facts from all the Individual records. You can easily check they are all deleted via the Query > Facts and Events > All Facts and sort on Fact Type. Since they are Fact Set (project) definitions they only apply to this Project, so they should be very ...

Does anyone have any comments on the prototype plugin version 3.9.3 before I publish it in the Plugin Store?

CP have updated the plugin in the Plugin Store for both issues that I reported.

You can post plugins in forums but now must use shared links to cloud storage such as OneDrive or Google Drive.
IMO unsupported prototype plugins should not be published in the Plugin Store.

I think Gary is referring to Generic Source Records and the citation Footnote/Bibliography formats that are defined in Tools > Preferences... > Sources > Generic Source Formats... > View Format.

Yes, AS supports those Generic features.

Jean, have you considered using AS to streamline that process?

I'm not sure what that saves. As well as the Record(s), you also have to select the Named List. With the Named List pane open, a List selected, and Record(s) selected, there is the Add to Current List button in the toolbar, so it is not necessary to use the Edit menu. You can also drag the selected ...

Gary, I've lost track of the purpose of your OP.
There you said you wanted to "store a single copy for the image of each census page".
But now it seems you cannot do that because "the filed information needs to be person-based".
