News

  • Added ", Africa" to ignored endings. It is now handled the same as ", Europe". That will enable adding only "Africa" to the country table.
  • I finnished the "Search results grouping". Below the results table, there is a box where you can select the grouping field and results are shown as unique values by selected field with the count of each value.
  • I updated the y haplogroups definitions and added definitions also from FTdna resulting in 230 less 161 suggestions. It seems I will have to update this more often.
  • I added mt haplogroup definitions from FTdna and I reactivated the 166 suggestion. I think there shouldn't be any false suggestions any more.
  • Ask Aleš will be next week on the 2nd Wednesday this month since I will be travelling to Salt Lake City for RootsTech.

Previous News

  • Aded a few words (TBA, TBC, To be Advised, To be Confirmed) to Suggestion 7x4 Wrong word in ... At the moment the list contains: NMN, TBA, TBC, To be Advised, To be Confirmed, DontKnow, Do Not Know, Don't know, AKA, OR, NOT and Anonymous (on open profiles)
  • Adjusted Error reporting for some Wales regions. The ones with sss and a dash. Changes are in 618 suggestion.
  • Split Country index to Country and Region. There was a problem for some locations like Wales, where a country name was found in region. See the help page for details https://www.wikitree.com/wiki/Help:WikiTree_Plus#srch1
  • See February Ask Aleš https://www.wikitree.com/g2g/1530686/ask-ales-february-2023
  • 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 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.
