Feature request: Add capability to filter name search results by WikiTree member status

Question

It is not uncommon for me to use Name Search to find the ID and profile page of any active member with whom I have interacted. Often these are people with common names, so there are many profiles to skim through to find the active members. It would be very helpful if Name Search results could be filtered to show only active WikiTree members.

Comments

I agree this would be helpful to find Member records only.

Answer 1

I've added this to the suggestions list.

Answer 2

Ellen, do you use WikiTree BEE?  It's not documented yet, but I've just added something to the page that should help.  I would suggest - for your situation - to search for the name with the 'Still living' box checked.  After that, if you don't see the person you want immediately, click the new link/button that I've added - "only active members" - to filter out the rest.

I hope this helps.
