I place lots of contextual info in many of my "residence" facts in Ancestry.com, in the "Description" field. When uploading to CET, That info (the description) is apparently thrown over into "Collaborate". This occurs for facts: Religion, MilitaryService, Blessing. Probably more.

    @SteveSchneider7 Thank you very much for testing our early release CET and offering feedback. May I ask which 3rd party vendor you use, which operating system, and which browser. I will forward all of this information to our engineers.

    Windows 11. Edge Browser. (3rd party vendor?? don't understand that question.) I start in Ancestry.com (where i put descriptive data into fields). Export from ancestry into a gedcom. UPload to CET. Let me know what else to answer.

    @SteveSchneider7 Thank you again for testing CET's early release. The 3rd party vendor is Ancestry.com. I missed the reference to it in your original post. I will forward this information to our engineers and will reach out to you privately and ask you to attach your GEDCOM file.

    @SteveSchneider7 I spoke with the engineers who have asked how many names are on your list?

    I emailed you my gedcom (8 mb) on Sunday, 19 Jan. Did you not receive it? There are 2400 people and 1770 photos in it.
