True, if I click on your link, I get my old tree (Yeay!!) BUT why does a link not appear on the Home page? The dropdown menu only offers the New tree and gedcom link!

Why is that?

Why can it still be used via the link if it's been removed ?!?!? I must say that I don't mind the new tree but it doesn't seem to work very well on my pc. The old one is smoother and quicker for navigating.

WhiffingSiggs, The link has been removed from the menu by GR

The link as was in the menu under the family tree tab was a (link) to another part of the system, the one in the menu opened another page in a "separate window" That separate window can still be accessed but only if you have the link to that part of the system

Yippee! Thanks Alan.

I can now use the old tree to make changes to the spelling/capitalisation of names in my tree. The new one wouldnt accept the changes. The GR people said they knew about the problem and would fix it (I'd given up waiting). "Raspberrys to them!!!! " :-P With your link I fixed it myself :-D <3

GR posted on FB 4 hours ago

Genes Reunited the old tree has been removed. People were still accessing the old tree by a saved link but we have removed access to this now. Please give the new tree a try, I'm sure you will find it vastly improved.

ShelleyRose Report 5 Aug 2012 18:29

NO It's not vastly improved, it's doing my eyes no good, WHY don't GR listen to it's paying customers, at this rate they won't have many left, AND it's no good putting things on facebook, info is needed on here. I'm raving, and not renewing next year. I've had enough.
Rant over, I feel better for that, BUT GENES LISTEN TO YOUR PAYING CUSTOMERS AND DO SOMETHING THEY WANT.

:-P :-P :-P
