Kirsty Please see below for my response, I have reported the details to Legacy, but because you do not state your settings I cannot necessary confirm or otherwise all your results. For consistency I used the Sample File (where possible).
Even with V 7.5 the privacy settings for Legacy generated webpages left a lot to be desired, that they still do is no surprise, It may also be that differences in results are due to different settings (somewhere!)

Haining Sent: Monday, March 17, 2014 4:33 AM To: legacyusergroup@LegacyUsers.com Subject: [LegacyUG] Possible bugs in webpages Hi, all — I’ve been doing some testing on generating web pages from Legacy version 8 (version 8.0.0.414), and I’ve been seeing all kinds of buggy output. Can someone confirm that these are genuine bugs, and not just something funky with the way I’ve been doing my report settings? Thanks. Here are the issues I’m seeing: (1) In Individual-Style Website pages — * AKAs are all run together without commas to separate them (and without an "and" before the last AKA in the list) I agree that it would be better is the AKA’s were separated by a comma – not using “and” doesn’t bother me (and programming that may be a bit of a problem) * Deceased spouses of living individuals which were set to display as "deceased" still show up with full name and details Confirmed * Unable to change wording options for any notes, events, etc. Confirmed * For many couples, events print on one spouse, with notes attached and event pictures, but on the other spouse the events only show up in the event note portion, and so attached images do not display. I cannot assess this, it may depend on the type of Event – marriage or individual – please let me know where you attach your images. * Alternate name for a deceased child is showing up in name list (even though privacy says to show only “Deceased”). (This may be a problem in other styles of web pages, too.) Confirmed * On the name list, when alternate names are included, it appears that the main preferred name for a female is then omitted from the name list. (This may be a problem in other styles of web pages, too.) Mine includes both the AKA and Birth Name in the Name List – perhaps a settings question? * If the option to “include the main name from each page as the page's title” (Project tab) is checked, then that individuals’ name displays at the top of the page EVEN WHEN privacy options say to set that person’s name to Living or Deceased (as the case may be). I do not have this option under the project tab –where is it? (2) In Family-Style Website pages — * Unable to change wording options for any notes, events, etc. Confirmed * Adds "Title Suffix" to the title of all family-report pages (even though that was left blank on the project tab) I’m afraid that I do not understand your comment. If you mean under the Project tab: “Title for each page” leave blank, then it works for me; the top of the page just has the name of the first couple. But see Project Tab comment above * On the family page for a living spouse with a deceased spouse (when privacy options are set to replace names with “Living” or “Deceased”), it still gives the full name of deceased spouse in the title of family group page, and then when it gets to the deceased spouse in the body of the page it says this spouse is "Living." For children of this couple, the deceased spouse shows up with full name. Re the first part, this I can confirm. Since in my cases the children are living I cannot confirm part 2. * Deceased child shows up with all info, even though the option was set to change that to simply "Deceased." Not for me, I’m afraid (3) In Ancestor-Style Website pages — * Deceased spouse shows up in report, even if privacy said to change name to Deceased. (Shows up as “Deceased” on the living spouse’s information, but then shows up with all information on details when it is the deceased’s turn to be listed in the report.) I am unable to confirm this, but a deceased child did show up when set to deceased (4) In Descendant-Style Website pages — * When privacy was set to change the name of living individuals to “Living” and to have deceased spouses and children of living individuals set to “Deceased” — in one instance, the second living child in the list (who happened to have two deceased spouses and a 3rd living spouse) had both deceased spouses show up in the descendant report as if they were the children of the living spouse. Not only did all details on the deceased spouses show up, but they showed up in incorrect relationship with the living spouse. Deceased children were also not hidden as they should have been (according to privacy options).
