Hi Just completed my main line name list but when I ask for matches all seem OK except my BILLS I am shown other BILLS researchers but my entry isn't shown. Does this mean other folk wont pick up that I am researching this particular name? How can I rectify this? When I ask to Edit my names it shows the entry OK

Hi Tees,

Seems OK to me, your BILLS are definitely in the table, and showing with all other BILLS.

where did you look for matches ??

If you looked in the "Surname Search" (the A-Z list), then this is only updated once a day, so they wouldn't have appeared yesterday, but they are there today.

If you looked in the "Advanced Search then they should be visible immediately.

Please let me know, because if it was the "Advanced Search", then that would definitely be an error.

thanks,
Bob

Hello Bob - Just a small problem. When I went into Surname Interests I could not find my one and only name listed under M. The name is MYAL.  Was I doing something wrong  ???

P.S. Is that because it is only a summary  ???

Hi Emmeline,

I've just tried looking under M in Surname Search and MYAL in Advanced Search and found your name with no problems.

Try again, and if you still can't find it, please tell me exactly what you are doing.

thanks,
Bob

Hi Bob

I notice a similar problem.  When I show all my surnames they are all successfully displayed but occasionally my own details are missing from one of them.  The problem seems to move around.  Today when I look at Woodbridge I see two other people's surnames  but not my entry. All my other surnames contain my entry.

This is obviously not a severe problem but could be a symptom of something.  I also wonder if the odd entry for another person is missing.
