Overview
You may add Person References items to the Person Entry list to include links to other pages where the person appears. For example, if a person appears in a List of People which has the Add References property checked, that person's Person References will include a link to the List of People.
Person References are assigned a type based on the item that creates the reference, and you may select the type of entries you want to appear. See Type Selections.
Each of the items that create references include properties that control whether the reference is created or not. For example, if the Add References property of the List of People User Item is checked, then the List of People will add references for each person included in the list. Otherwise, it will not.
Links to other people based on relationships or shared events do not appear in a Person References list. Those links are created by relationships or shared events in the GEDCOM file.
Limitation
In Gedcom Publisher, Person Entries are created when the chapter to which they belong is processed. References created by an item in a later chapter, or later in the same chapter, will have no effect.
Properties
Title
Enter the text that you want to appear as the label for the person references.
If your Title text includes the characters ||, the text before the || will be the title if there is only one entry in the list, and the text after the || will be the title if there is more than one entry in the list.
Enabled
See Enabled in the Common Properties section of the User Items help page.
