Question

News

• I am on vacations. Greetings from Jordan.

Previous News

• Beginning of the new month is here and there will be new instance of Ask Aleš on Wednesday. More on https://www.wikitree.com/g2g/1530686/ask-ales-february-2023
• I added search results grouping. It is still in development but some examples are shown in this G2G post
• I adjusted the search page limits to make life easyer for my server. It is possible to paginate in case of more results See this G2G post. Limits for search result are:
  • HTML: 5.000
  • xls: 20.000
  • csv: 100.000
  • json: 1.000.000
• I added CC7 index to find all profiles within 7 degrees. It only searches but public relations, but that works fine with pre1700 profiles. To use it enter CC7=Trtnik-2 as a search keyword.
• I removed the search by Manager since managed profiles can be found using WikiTreeID in the Text search or more specific you can use Manager=Trtnik-2
• DNS for WikiTree+ has been changed from wikitree.sdms.si to plus.wikitree.com. For now both domains are working but I am slowly transitioning to the new URL. Everything is working as it was. You will only loose cookies, which is not that important.
• I changed the conditions for automatic opening of public profiles to be more in sinc with WikiTree. As a result almost 10000 public profiles were opened causing a decrease of related suggestions.
• I changed the suggestion reports to list only open profiles in the date range columns and instead of open column, that used to list suggestions for all open profiles it is now Private column that lists all suggestions on private profiles. This change reduced the reports size and time to create almost by half. Reasoning was that private profiles are almost impossible to correct By a list, since only profile managers can correct them.
• Removed a few words from making a suggestion Warning 743: Prefix in Middle Name. It will reduce the false suggestions a lot.
• Wales reports are changed to be created by recognized country instead of the location. Also UnrecognizedRegion report was added.
• Beginning of the new month is here and there will be new instance of Ask Aleš on Wednesday. More on https://www.wikitree.com/g2g/1515967/ask-ales-january-2023
• Suggestion 891 Space:DBE_891 reactivated. It wasn't reported for a few months.
• Changed magic word for profiles on a cemetery from fagcemid1234 to fgcem1234. Also the index name was changes to FindAGrave. Now it is used as FindAGrave=fgcem5266
• Added another magic word fgmem1234 that finds a profile(s) that is linked to specific memorial on FindaGrave. Index name is FindAGrave. It can be used as FindAGrave=fgmem1234 or just fgmem1234. That makes it possible to see if a profile is already created for a FG memorial.
• I added new report to WT+ to report everything about a single cemetery. See Category:All Saints Churchyard, Thelwall, Cheshire for an example. Link was added to CIB as WikiTree+ Report: Detailed report on profiles and related FG cemeteries and clicking on it will create a report. https://wikitree.sdms.si/function/WTCemetery/Cemetery.htm?cemetery=All_Saints_Churchyard%2C_Thelwall%2C_Cheshire The report is extract from the new cemeteries reports with Cemetery category and related FG cemeteries on a single page.
