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? [[User:VasquezJL|janellv]] 16:27, 2 June 2011 (UTC)

: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.

== Links using the Item parameter requires URL change ==
[[User:Dianekay]] contacted me about some of the FHL links she had been added returning an error. The examples of links producing this are in the page/section [[Franklin County, Illinois#Land and Property]]. Looking at the links that have been added using {{tl|FHL}} template, these all use the '''<tt>item</tt>''' parameter. I then compared the URL produced by the template for these links and the links in the catalog (once I had performed a manual lookup). I believe that there must have been a recent change in the way these URLs are produced in the catalog. Part of the URL has changed from '''<tt>catalog.familysearch.org</tt>''' to '''<tt>catalog-search-api</tt>''' and this needs to be reflected in the template for the '''<tt>item</tt>''' parameter. --[[User:Cottrells|Steve]] ([[User talk:Cottrells|talk]]&thinsp;|&thinsp;[[Special:Contributions/Cottrells|contribs]]) 20:13, 27 July 2011 (UTC)
