Links not working then? Hmm.
I tend to copy and paste the info thankfully.

There was some updates on twitter from CWGC and Geoff's Search Engine about changes. Don't know if it will be permanent yet.

For this reason I would prefer we copy and paste the information rather than just a link. |

Appears to be ok now. Think there was a glitch at their end. Posting info makes sense, and if I ever get a minute I will. I think the CWGC are committed to keeping links working though?

There was a minor upgrade to the CWGC site yesterday which will have required the links to be updated overnight. If still having a problem refresh the page - F5.
The upgrade gives a larger font for the records, a new photo facility for cemeteries and an improved 'location' search. Nothing else is visible to the user.
As far as casualty links from the old database go, CWGC have repeatedly said they will continue to work.
Remember, Geoff's Search is not acccessing the CWGC database but is searching an old data file which is a far from up to date. _________________ Jim
