@Gerry Peter van der Struys For consultant questions, I am going to move this conversation over to the All Temple & Family History Consultants group. They will be able to have a great conversation with you about how to help others with indexing as a consultant.
In the meantime, you ask person for the URL or the Share Batch code (3rd right Icon on the tool bar, or in the Help Drop Down Menu). Then you can either click on the URL, or on the Web Indexing Page, there is a settings/gear shift Icon to click on to Open Shared Batch where you will input their number to view their batch. Thank you so much and have a wonderful time helping others!!

I would like to add the following: Signing in as a helper works only if you are helping them with issues on their family tree.
The helper information does not work to help them with Indexing. As sister Jacobs said you would need their batch code or link of their project. To share a batch would allow you to see what they see, but it will not save any change or correction on their batches. Cheers.

Have you used Team Viewer? Then you can see what they see on real time.

Yes I am very familiar with teamviewer I was able to use it a lot when I was on a familysarch mission and even when talking with a van der struys in South Africe I was able to give her control of my computer to show her my ancestry, but that was not the question what I was after was being able to help those in the chat forum

Gerry Peter van der Struys,
- If you go onto Web- Indexing. The first screen the first title is, "My Batches, right next to My Batches is a little thingy that look like a coggle or to me a daisy. Click on it. In the dropdown it will give you 2 choices.
- Edit Preferences
- Open Shared Batch. Choose this one. Type in the Share Batch #, whose work you want to check, . This can be found at the end of the Project Title of the batch the person is indexing. eg.
South Africa—Church of the Province of South Africa, Parish Registers, 1801–2004 [Part A][MS4G-9BZ]. Type the last 7 digits into the "Open Shared Batch". Follow the directions and you will be able to look at the indexers work. Type the digits in without the the brackets and make sure there are no spaces between the numbers and letters before and after the hyphen in the middle. You will notice the first part MS4G will always stay the same but the last 3 digits will change per batch. Another tip. Every now and then refresh your screen and you will be able to see when the indexer has indexed more names on that batch.
Gerry are you Afrikaans?
