FAMILY ARCHIVE
A quick guide to adding families, people and memories
THE ORDER MATTERS: 1 ADD FAMILY → 2 ADD PEOPLE → 3 ADD MEDIA
ADD A FAMILY FIRST
If the ‘Family’ does not already exist in the list, choose the Add Family icon. Enter the family name in English, Hebrew, or both, then click Add Family. Make sure it has saved before adding anyone in that family.
ADD A PERSON
- Choose Add Person and enter the person's name. Add birth/death dates and other details if known.
- Link the person to the family you created. If they belong to more than one family, add the other family relationship.
- Add known relationships (parents, spouse/partner, children, etc.) and save.
VIEW THE FAMILY TREE
Click the Family Tree icon. When logged in, you will see your immediate family tree. To see the complete family tree, use the “Big Picture” button.
ADD PHOTOS, VIDEOS OR OTHER MEDIA
- Choose Media and open the add/upload option.
- Select the files. Add a useful description/date and link them to the relevant family and people where the form offers those options.
- Wait for the success message, then view the item or batch to confirm the upload.
REMEMBER: When viewing later, each ‘Batch’ is clickable, so add related media to the same Batch rather than one image per Batch.
