Anyone having problems on pictures and information not downloading on the site today ☹️
-
I have had a problem with photos not being available for a coupleof days now. There are more available today than the last couple of days.
-
Thank you youngtug for your reply, it's the first time ive noticed this happen!....panic over 😂
-
I was leaving it for a few days to see if they sorted it before contacting them.
You have backed up your site ? and downloaded a gedcom to your computer ? [regularly? ;D]
Although the photos will not be on a gedcom I think.

Triblepages back to normal 😀
-
I have registered and logged in to my new page and added my family details. However, when I do a search for them nothing shows up? I've set the privacy settings to medium. Is this normal?
-
If you scroll to the bottom of the "privacy settings " page you will see that you can choose whether your site will be searchable by google, etc,.
-
Like so;
TribalPages Directory what's this?
Deceased Relatives
Other Search (Google, Yahoo, MSN)
Homepage
Deceased Relatives

I've had my TribalPages privacy set as you describe for at least two years. I've never had Google return a hit on my page. In fact I rarely see any kind of hit for TribalPages. This is my one complaint about them.
Is this your experience also? Do you have any thoughts that might help?
Thanks

I use Tribalpages to build my tree, not for connecting to others. My privacy is a "custom" setting.
There is the "connections" page[?] that shows other Tribalpages trees that have the same names that you can contact.
If you want a site that people can connect with you then Tribalpages is not the one to choose, maybe Ancestry would be better suited?
Although, if I enter my site name into google it throws up my tree near the top.
-
I've located and looked at my settings, and all seems ok, the problem is that when I do a search within Tribalpages for any of my surnames that Ive put in, it's not showing up on the website. :-\
-
If nobody else is researching the same names on Tribalpages then there will not be any trees. If you mean your own tree then it may be your security level, although it is best to give Tribalpages some time
