Hello again folks! This is just a heads-up to let you know that tomorrow morning (about 17 hours from the time of this post) we're putting a fix on the site that will help people's search settings stick for an entire session. This means you don't have to keep resetting things like "100 results per page" or "Preview images" every time you do a new search. Hopefully this is helpful, if you spot anything amiss please don't hesitate to let me know and we'll investigate.
Cheers!
Hello PP.
A VERY MUCH appreciated added feature, which I had recently noted was happening.
For the last three months I've spent several hours each evening researching the history surrounding two BUSH RESERVES set aside with the first 1860's survey of Waikato County. I'm now over 300 clippings later, and up to the year 1900, and nearing the end of this partucular research, as by 1910 the bush reserves had been further subdivided, following a number of wild fires.
For this research, at each session, I had been setting my research subject, date range, press selection, AND then selecting RESULTS by
date and 100 per page. Not having to reset even one option is a huge saving in my book.
With SPADES assistance accessing some ARCHIVES NZ files, also pertaining to the reserves, a facinating story has emerged detailing the life and times of this particular community, and re-defining the oral history, that has survived the past 144 years.
So a very big thank you from this researcher.
- Alan.
