People directory

Everyone

The People Directory lists everyone who appears in the family’s books. Open someone’s profile to see their photos and every page they’re on.

Opening the directory

Press People at the top of the home page or any book. A side-panel slides out with a searchable list.

Searching

Start typing in the search box and the list filters in real time. It matches anywhere in the name, so you can type “ree” to find Reed or “martha” to find Aunt Martha.

Someone’s profile

Click a person in the list (or click their name in a caption) to open their profile. You’ll see:

Anna Reed
Born 1895 in Ogden, Utah. Mother of John and Charles. Taught piano for forty years.
Appears on
Page 3 Page 12 Page 42 Page 87 Page 120

Jumping to a page from a profile

Click any page number in the “Appears on” list and the book opens to that page. The People panel stays out until you close it.

Clicking a name in a caption

Names in gold (like [[John Reed]] in a caption) are shortcuts to that person’s profile. Clicking is the fastest way to see where else someone appears.

Where do people come from?

Every name mentioned in a caption becomes a person in the directory automatically. Recognized faces in photographs are attached by an organizer or admin — see People & Faces.
