Extension summary

DNA Match Labeling adds colored dot labeling to AncestryDNA matches. DNA Match Labeling adds a table of eight colors (red, blue, green, yellow, pink. orange, gray, and black) at the top of each page, where the user can enter text defining the color. For example, in the field for the red dot, the user can enter text such as "John Watanabe," "John Watanabe - Paternal Grandfather," or any other text.

If a user admins or views DNA results for several people in an account, each person will have a separate table.

To LABEL a match with a color: (1) click on the empty white dot next to a match's picture or male/female icon (underneath the gray or gold star on the far left of a match); (2) select a color from the pop-up color selection tray.

To CHANGE an existing color: (1) click on the colored dot next to the match's picture or male/female icon (underneath the gray or gold star on the far left of a match); (2) select a NEW color from the pop-up color selection tray.

If the match has not yet been viewed, you will see the AncestryDNA blue dot (indicating an unviewed match) with the DNA Match Labeling dot underneath.

Beyond helpful- it made organizing matches at Ancestry simple and more custom. It worked so well Ancestry decided to roll out their own version.

No longer compatible after ancestry update.

I love this extionsion. One problem I've noticed is sometimes the label/color dot goes away after I've added it. Went through a whole dna circle and marked the matches but when I went back to my matches the labels were gone.
