Could you tell us about the WikiTree+ server problem and how it is to be or was resolved?

As part of this week's DD Challenge, I'm attempting to fix some of the 24 email addresses in private profiles.  The profile manager of [[Cahill-388|Margaret Jane Delaney Cahill (1923-2012)]] granted me permission to edit her profile which had multiple errors.  I've corrected them and save as draft but it will not let me do a full save because I cannot mark more than one email error as fixed.  So this logic error needs to be fixed but can someone do a full save for Cahill-388 from my draft please?  Thanks, Mike

There was an email in the bio still present. I saved your draft.
Thanks!

Can you please make a Dummies version of WikiTree+ video? I would like a step by step guide on how to use it for basic searches. I have watched your videos over and over and I still don't understand how to use it.
by Kathy Nava G2G6 Pilot (294k points)
I agree, a beginner's guide would be very useful. A step-by-step guide starting from opening it for the very first time and an overview of the things you can do with it and how to do them. I've watched videos on WT+, but when I watch a video they will start talking about things that are too far ahead or assume you know something, and therefore it's frustrating.

A 101-level getting started guide. No jargon, no coder talk, just explain how to use it and some of the things one can use it for. Some simple examples, such as finding unsourced profiles in my location.

Would love to know if there is a way of finding orphaned profiles by location.

Thanks,

Steph
