Re: [LegacyUG] How's the Web Page Output - Legacy v8
Thanks Brian. I'm currently redesigning my web site and plan to use a dynamic web template which, hopefully with the help of Ltools and a couple other programs, I can insert into the legacy output. The Legacy pages are only part of the site so I have a ways to go. I expect the site redesign to take several weeks before I'm ready to start on the Legacy info. I guess I'll just finish updating my family data in v7.5 and just before creating the web pages I'll import it all to v8 and see how it goes from there. If I have too many problems I can always just go back to the v7.5 installation. On Thu, Feb 12, 2015 at 10:23 AM, Brian L.

Re: [LegacyUG] How's the Web Page Output - Legacy v8
Gordon, I can speak from experience, I hope that you consider using TNG for an truly dynamic web site online (and not just a dynamic template) I wasted many, many weeks, and months only to discover that I could have made my web site even better in less time using TNG. It not only allows for dynamic templates, but also dynamic Language options (most major languages) and most importantly, dynamic data display. So when someone adds or corrects some data, it is easy to get that new data online vs the laborious task for static pages.

Re: [LegacyUG] Mass Sourcing
Don You can use Advanced Tagging to tag all the people u want to source. Then use Advanced Sourcing to source fields for the Tagged people. Try tagging a couple people and then use a advanced sourcing to assign. Source to all or specific fields for the Tagged people.

[LegacyUG] Change wording in Legacy Ancestor Book report

Re: [LegacyUG] Change wording in Legacy Ancestor Book report
Hi Reinder, Wait for the next update. They did a GR build and a beta build at the same time thinking this issue was fixed. It wasn't but several beta builds later, it is. I would think there'll be a new GR in the next few days.

[LegacyUG] Latest Build Issues
I just downloaded version 8.0.0.467 and have come across the following after the update: 1) Additional spaces between words were added to my transcribed sources under the Text of Source screen in Master Sources. About 25% of my sources were affected. The extra spaces were just random – anywhere from an additional one to 5 spaces between words. (Eg: a BronzeMemorial has been installed). I was able to go in and delete all these added spaces – it was just time consuming to have to do so. 2) Anything that was bolded was particularly affected - there were extra spaces before and after many bolded words. But after removing the extra spacing around bolded words and saving, the extra spacing would come back. I actually had to change the words from bold to normal to be able to remove the extra spaces. If I tried to rebold the word afterwards, the extra spacing would come back. 3) In reports – Indiv., Family, Ancestor Desc., in random places the period and any spaces around the period, have been replaced by 2 horizontal lines. (Eg: Married in the Anglican Church of St||Paul’s||Witnesses were Sally). The horizontal lines have a break in the middle, but I don’t have the symbol on my keyboard to show you. I have ran a Check/Repair, Compact File and booted my computer, but these issues are still there. I can live without the bolded words, but the reports don’t look too pretty with the missing spaces and || in place of periods. Is anyone else noticing this?

[LegacyUG] Mass Sourcing
Perhaps a dumb question, but is there any way in Legacy 8 to add a source en mass to a large number of individuals? I have a large number of individuals from many years ago, when I was more interested in adding names than in sourcing my information. Now, having seen the light, I source everything. But there are still these people in my database who need to be attributed to the source where I found them originally. Any suggestions would be appreciated.
