Maybe I've just been slow to notice this, but FreeBMD always used to say you could choose either a county or a registration district, not both. And now if you select a county, it gives you a list of the districts within that county. Does anyone know when this changed? It's much handier the new way.

This side of about 2pm today?

Actually, I think today I only searched with a specific district, but I definitely searched Somerset yesterday evening and nothing happened with the districts list then.

Lokes like a great improvement! (not that it was bad before!!)

I think it was a bit longer than yesterday, maybe last week? I can't remember exactly when I used it last but it was there when I did.

I've not used FreeBMD for a few days, but this morning it has reverted to the old search for me (selecting a county doesn't reveal the districts in that county in the Districts list).

That's strange Merry. Free BMD is working the new way for me today but last week it had reverted to the old system.

I just looked at the Help page on FreeBMD and the instructions for District and County are for the old style search. If you have the new style search working I wonder if that is reflected on the Help page?

The new style is not working for me today although it was within the last few days. Strange.

Refreshed and got the new search facility but the help page did not change, at least where it discusses counties and districts, which is all I looked at.
