Nelisw79 0 Report post Posted November 30, 2020 Hi! can anyone tell me if it’s possible to create custom fields? I want to add a possibility to check resources and status of a person. For instance: research finished or birthcertificate found. It would give me a lot of help in upgrading my family history. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Rob Severijns 0 Report post Posted November 30, 2020 Nelisw79, I use the Notes field for that purpose. Also see Reliability - New Ideas and Suggestions - TNG Community for more on this topic. Kind regards, Rob Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

theKiwi 0 Report post Posted November 30, 2020 You can add a Custom Event in TNG Admin ------> Custom Events Then you can search them with a Report, or using the Advanced Search Roger Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Rob Severijns 0 Report post Posted November 30, 2020 Nelisw79, All roads lead to Rome. Roger's option using the Custom Events is a very good solution too. The choice you make depends on what you are looking for as an outcome and how flexible you want the outcome to be. The option I use (Notes) allows me to filter all notes containing the word "complete" or "Reliability" or any other text I choose. It's pretty straight forward and doesn't allow a custimized format as an outcome. What you are looking for can also be acclomplished by creating a Custom Event. Choosing this option requires you to use the Reports function from within TNG. It's a flexible solution that gives you many options to create your own customized reports. Do take a look at Category:Reports - TNG_Wiki (lythgoes.net) if you go for Roger's option. Rob Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

No, you can also search the Custom Events from the Advanced Find screen - click the "Other Events" at the bottom of the screen to expand out a list of all your custom events, then do your search on the relevant one.

Nelisw79 0 Report post Posted December 1, 2020 looked in to both options. Custom events: if i add a custom event and add it to a person, the filter results won't show all the people that havent got this event. It will only show the persons who have this event added. Filter on notes: I don't see an option to filter for notes. Do i have to build this in custom SQL? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
