Hi Sid,
I think I understand what you are asking and it may be that the only way to
achieve this is to alter the html in the pages directly. This is quite
simple to do and with only a few it should not take long.
If you could send me one of the html pages in question saying exactly what
changes you want I will be happy to have a look at it and advise you as to
how to make the changes.

Subject: [LegacyUG] Website creation - treatment of "Private" individuals
Does anyone have any ideas on this (and please, let's NOTget into the
debate here over posting details of living persons to the Internet.)
I have a Legacy-created personal website online, www.sidsalinger.com .
The last update was 25 August 2005, created with Legacy 5.0. I now want
to update it, including additions and changes that have occurred in my
data base since that date, and replacing the "5.0" banner at the bottom of
each page with one of the new 6.0 ones. (I use 6.0 Deluxe v.6.0.0.66.)
There are fewer than a dozen names out of my nearly 6,000 that are
"Private"; mostly, in a single family. Some are living; some dead. To
illustrate what I am trying to accomplish, you can go to my Surname List
in the site and click first on "Borovsky". There, click on "Avrom
(Abraham)". Then, on his page, try to click on his son, "Benjamin B.
Burrows". You can't...there's no link.
Now, go back the Surname List, and click first on "Burrows". There's no
"Benjamin B." on the list. But, now click on "Edna".
And, you'll find Edna, and her husband, sons, and grandchild. And, you'll
see that she's the daughter of the aforementioned Benjamin (whose name had
been Anglicized from Borovsky to Burrows).
Why does this happen? Because, Benjamin had a SECOND daughter...and she
(and her husband, children and grandchildren) are all "Private." They
don't appear at all.
What I would like would be for the second daughter, her husband and
descendants all to appear, but simply as "Private". (This, incidentally,
would activate Benjamin B's link.) And, I now seem to have figured that
out, by checking, on the "Who" tab in the site, "All records in the entire
family file", but leaving "Include Private Indivduals" unchecked I can
accomplish that. Each of the "Private" individuals are now included on my
web page, but only named as "Private".
So, here's the question:
Even though they're "Private", with no names showing, their Birth and
Death dates and places DO show...although Marriages are shown only as
"Private". What I'm seeking is a way to eliminate the birth and death
dates and places on the web pages, and have them also say "Private"...in
the same manner as the Marriages currently appear.
In other words, I would prefer that the Birth and Death dates and places
NOT show on the web page, but not lose the fact that there are unrevealed
Private individuals. If there is no way of accomplishing this, I may have
to stay with the format currently online, where there's no indication of
the Private individuals. (And, I DO want the details to show for living
persons other than those Private ones.)
On the other hand, if it CAN be done, I'd like to do it prior to
transferring the new web page to the Internet. Feel free to reply either
on- or off-list.
