Ian,
You don't have to search trees. Even when the hinting is working for
MyHeritage, you can turn off the tree hints.
For the Internet Search, to create one for a particular collection, you
don't change the existing one for MH, you create an entirely new one.

Yes, that is the way I approached it - using the Search-Internet
interface in Legacy, for MyHeritage, and at the resulting page,
selecting various Collections or other settings from there. But I
opted not to amend the URL that it sends or even to explore Help for
Legacy's codes used in tat function.
I did actually like the Hints for MH within Legacy, even though it
threw up a lot of nonsense - but that is just a reflection of the
information that people put into their trees.

There's a problem with MyHeritage hints currently as far as I know.
You can write your own Internet Searches. You may be able to restrict it.
You do a search as you want it on the site and copy the Search URL and
replace specifics with the available codes. It's explained in the Help
I think. Whether this particular restriction can be done, I don't
know. It looks like it could be done for a particular collection.
You certainly can't do it by adding site:au

For some months, I haven't had any HINTS within Legacy _except for
FindMyPast_ - and wonder if it is possible to restrict the Search /
Search Internet for MyHeritage.com by country (or Collection?).
At this time, I would like to restrict to MyHeritage.com’s *Australian
collections* only
I use the default settings, but cannot see that I can restrict to
country within the URL search string.
Within a browser, I do remember appending *site:.au* but I doubt that
would be appropriate.
Ideas?
