I see that the template allows for subject/title/keyword searches, but I don't see options for linking to places, last name, or author search. There are especially a lot of links out there to places. Is there a way to do that?

:Those are among the questions that I have been asking of the FamilySearch folks and have yet to get an answer. If I remember correctly, I believe I was told that they were going to talk to the FHLC people to find out about the correct links to be used.

=== Place search request === | |||
Would it be possible for you to create a version of the Template:FHL that allows for a "place search"? | |||
For example, take at look at the Wiki page [[PEEL COUNTY: Populated Places Table]] | |||
The lower part of this page consists of a table of FHL Catalog links. I would like to focus on two of the links on this table, the first and the last on the table. | |||
First is a link to the town of Albion (Peel County, Ontario) currently rendered as: | |||
[https://www.familysearch.org/search/search/library_catalog#searchType=catalog&filtered=true&collectionId=&fed=false&page=1&catSearchType=place&searchCriteria=&placeName=Ontario%2C+Peel%2C+Albion+Township&author_givenName=&author_surname= Link] | |||
Second is a link to Peel County, Ontario currently rendered as: | |||
[http://www.familysearch.org/eng/library/fhlcatalog/supermainframeset.asp?display=localitydetails&subject=173576&subject_disp=Ontario%2C+Peel&columns=*,0,0 Link] | |||
Can you make variations on the Template:FHL that would return the same results as these two URL links and achieve similar results as adjusted for neighboring towns and counties? | |||
Thanks | |||
