Search Options
Filters
The top section allows to select a part of your places with filters. Very useful with large dataset for places.
To complete geocodes, select at least one rule for looking at places without coordinates: No given latitude and longitude.
Search latitude and longitude
If the field City (town) for the place location is filled, then you can choose a quick search via:
- search by city.
If the field County for the place location is filled, then you can choose a quick search via:
- search by county/city.
If you only have a Place title value, eg. after a GEDCOM import; then you should choose a large search via:
- search by start_of_title, searches.
