  • As you probably know, WT+ server died. It is now running on some spare machine I have in the company, but things are not as fast as usually. I already ordered new server and it might be delivered this week. Then the operations will be back to normal, but much faster. Since I was buying new one, it will be faster (6 core) with more ram.
  • I updated the search engine to handle queries from multiple indexes much faster. For example searches like Birthcountry=England and Birthregion=UnknownRegion are now done 100 times faster.
  • Added Cumbria as england location. https://plus.wikitree.com/function/WTShowTable/Table.htm?table=Countries&filter=ENG
  • Added reports for Cumbria and Bristol

"Added a posibility to see when a profile was added to the category. Use this link and replace the category"

This is absolutely brilliant! USBH is already using this to catch up on profiles added to Heritage Exchange a long time ago. We'll use it for our maintenance categories too.
