Missing people
Help families find their missing
A searchable list of missing people on your site, with the source of every record, reports from families that a person reads before anything appears, and tips that reach only your staff.

The list
A list people can search
Search that forgives spelling
Names in four parts, matched across the common ways of writing them.
Filters
By town, status, year and gender.
The source of each record
An organisation, the family, the press or an official body, with its link.
Statuses you name
Missing, returned, fate confirmed, or your own. A case is closed on the same record.
Reports from families
A public form with a captcha; a report appears only after a person approves it.
Private tips
A visitor can send what he knows; only staff you allow read it.
Privacy
Care built in
Photos only with consent
A photo is shown when the family's consent is on record.
Reporter details stay hidden
The name, phone and email of whoever reported are never public.
No public comments
What visitors know reaches your staff, not the page.
Open, or for members
Leave the list open to all, or show it only to signed-in members.
How it works
From a report to a published record
You set it up
Keep or rename the statuses, add your sources, and choose whether reports and tips are accepted.
A family reports
Or your staff enter the record; visitors search the list and send tips.
A person decides
Each report is approved, or declined with a reason; tips go only to the staff you allow.
Questions
Does it come with a list of names?
No. You add the records, from families and organisations you trust, and each shows where it came from.
Is a family's phone number published?
No. The reporter's contact details never reach the public page.
Is a report published at once?
No. A person reads every report first.
Can anyone see the list?
By default yes; you can show it to signed-in members only.
Give every family a place to ask
