Hi,
I've been reading Cyndi Howells' "Planting Your Family Tree Online." One
suggestion she has for web site structure is to have different sections for
different surnames, where you think of the sections as chapters. So I might
start with my grandparents, for example, and have sections for Carroll,
Stone, Fogarty, & Patterson.
One reason she gives for doing it this way is that when the audience is
relatives, say cousins of mine, they will mainly be interested in the
part(s) of the web site that mention their ancestors.
I can do this in Legacy, I guess, by using the Ancestor web page style, and
making 4 separate web page projects, one for each grandparent. Then I would
use some HTML editor (not Legacy) to make the home page or main index page,
which would provide links to the separate projects.
It looks like I could use the Home Button option on the Links tab of the web
page dialog to tell Legacy to link each page back to the home page that I
created outside Legacy.
I was wondering if anybody else has tried something like this (and maybe run
into problems I haven't thought of), or has any other thoughts on Legacy &
web site structure.
Thanks.
