How do add GEDMatch superkit to your WikiTree profile?

Question

I created a combined superkit on GEDMatch using a 23andme and Ancestry kit, and now only the superkit shows up on GEDmatch searches.  Unfortunately, my Wiki profile is connected to the 23andme kit, so now the WikiTree link doesn't work anymore on GEDMatch.  Is there a fix for this on WikiTree?

Answer 2

On your wikitree profile you should be able to update or edit your DNA tests just click under the Add column and then DNA test information. Then you should have a button to "Edit or enter more details"

I just figured that out - there is an option to add the GEDMatch ID for an "other" autosomal test.  Unfortunately, the field seems only to accept a 9 digit number, and GEDMatch is using 10 digit codes for the combined superkits.  I wonder if that could be fixed?

I mentioned the limitation on number of digits in another thread, and Mags said the tech team would be looking into it.

In the meantime, if you still have the 23andMe kit on GEDmatch (even if marked as Research), the old link will work. It will bring up your Superkit as a match, and people can switch to that if they wish.

Scott, we will get our system updated ASAP so that it can accept the longer IDs. Thanks!
