- WikiTree Browser Extension is installed on my Mac laptop, Chrome browser. Extension Update
On your "My Connections" page, the extension will give you a table with a count of your connections. For each degree, there's a missing connection table button which will look for those on the list with missing parents and possible missing spouses.
- After a Missing Connection Table button has been selected and the table is fully loaded a Hide Table button appears and will show the missing parent & spouse icons.
Note: This new extension also includes "Distance and Relationship" which adds the distance (degrees) between you and the profile person and any relationship between you.

| Example: my CC7 distance is 12º on this profile + relationship |
Steps I take to Increase my CC7

My recent focus was on entering missing parent lines and missing spouses.
I also worked off of my kids/grandkids CC7 lists which you can access by changing the end profile ID after "Special:MyConnections&w="

Notes from viewing the "Family Tree and Tools" page:
- 7 degree 3rd cuz (4 generations down from 2nd great grand)
- Descendant (except for direct line) needs to show in family tree up to (4th grgrands) for C7 (no spouse or children)
- Direct line to 5th grgrands (include children only)
- at 4th direct include children, spouse, and grandchildren only

CC7 Views by Ian Beacall – This app has outstanding tables and a new Hierarchy & List view when you choose "Get CC7".
Plus I really like the new "Get Degree" 1-7 dropdown menu, very useful for people with higher CC7 counts. (5th or 6th degrees may not be displayed because of size) Enter the user id for a grandparent instead and work from their 3rd or 4th degree! CC7 Table Update
- UPDATE: Check out the new option with added features now under "Tree Apps" on all profiles: "CC7 Views"

Bulk tool removal: Click "Watchlist Changes" (last box), then I do the option:
"If you'd like to remove yourself from Trusted Lists that you've been added to just recently, e.g. if someone else has bloated your Watchlist, click here." Oh, here's the direct link:

You might want to remove the mention of WikiTree BEE entirely, to avoid confusion. Ian writes on the free-space page for that: "Note: Please install the new WikiTree Browser Extension. Recently, I've been adding many of the features of WikiTree BEE to the WikiTree Browser Extension. As it's not always easy to avoid conflicts between the two extensions, I've started removing features from the BEE after adding them to the other extension."
Cheers,
Chris
The page is updated... Kudos to all involved that made this new tool a reality! :)

A question for you: why did you say "before using the bulk tool to remove yourself as profile manager from recently created profiles"? I'm new to WT, so I've probably got some naïve notions, but doesn't someone have to be the PM for every profile and if you create the profile won't that be you until such time as someone else volunteers to do the job?
Once you create a profile you may remove yourself... then it is up for adoption by anyone that would like to manage it. (profile will show a link to adopt) I've created many profiles that I'm not related to. I feel no need to watch over them, so to speak. They suggest your watch list should not exceed 5k or it will not work well. Mine is still way too large! https://www.wikitree.com/wiki/Help:Profile_Manager
