Caperton Society Blog

I have updated the site search engine. I did not realize you had to re-run the search engine each time you updated a site page. Which is proof you are never too old to learn! Thanks to Steve for the heads up on this issue!

Also please be aware that the photographs and their titles are not included in the search from the main page. To search the photographs you need to go to the photogallery and use the search option within the gallery itself. This is because the photogallery pages are now "created on the fly" which means they do not exist until a visitor requests them. The old photogallery could be searched because the pages were static pages that were always present.

Repaired several broken links found on the Ancestral Homes page of the family history side of the site. The photogallery links associated with each home should now go to the homes page of the new photogallery, rather than off into no mans land!

Added several new photos to the USS Caperton side. I still have many photos (both Family and Ship pictures) to add to the new gallery.

I have a new list of former crewmen of the USS Caperton posted. I am now using a cgi script, rather than static tables, to generate the pages. This will allow me to quickly update the list. I still have quite a few names to add. I am also working on creating two separate lists. One for WWII and one for the Korean Confilct.
