The FIG Tree News is a newsletter for genealogy researchers of the Fenton family name from all over the world. The newsletter was started in February 1994, but was suspended in July of 2000 due to a busy life with two teenagers. Now that they have both graduated, I am hoping to be able to spend more time on the website (thus the new look website).
Due to this change in software it will allow us to be more flexible and allows users to have more input directly on the website. I believe this is a great step and no researcher can truely work only on their own. We all need help from someone at one time or another. |

We have installed a new program (phpGEDView) that will allow you to edit, view and create reports for your family tree. It will also let you share and edit family tree infromation provided by other users. You will be able to view the files without logging in, but in order to create, edit and share the files you will have to register on this portion of the site again. Maybe, eventually, it will be tied into the main site and you will have the same log-in, but not yet. |

I have had a few questions recently about not being to have access to the forums or the guestbook. Due to the many SPAMMERS out that are out there I must require registration for all users of the website. If I didn't have those restrictions, then there would be all sorts of posts concerning sexual related websites, pharmaceuticals, and many other things that I wouldn't want to see there. As it is, I still get a lot of accounts created for that purpose, but those account are quickly deleted.

Well, this version of the website has been on-line for just over a year now. We have added forums; a guestbook; converted all of the printed newsletters into on-line articles; added a program to post, edit and share your GEDCOM files on-line; and we have created a group on Facebook for the users. I haven't heard any suggestions from anyone on what they might like to see next from The FIG Tree News.

I've just added a new feature (menu item) to the website.
Users now have the ability to e-mail other registered users without having to post their e-mail address on the website.
I am still debating on whether to keep this available to all users or limit it to registered users. Right now everyone can use this function, but I will quickly change it if I hear that users are getting unwanted e-mail from SPAMMERs or other users.
If it becomes a problem, please let me know as soon as possible by clicking on this link. Thanks! |
