Hosted websites will become read-only beginning in early 2024. At that time, all logins will be disabled, but hosted sites will remain on RootsWeb as static content. Website owners wishing to maintain their sites must migrate to a different hosting provider before 2024.

WorldConnect Read-Only Transition

As of August 9, 2021, WorldConnect has been set to read only. All data currently in rootsweb will still be available, but no further gedcom uploads will be possible.

For this reason, the useraccount system has also been retired. There will no longer be any user accounts needed.

You will still be able to log in to hosted websites if you own one. You can also reset your hosted website account password. If you would like to delete a tree you posted, please contact Customer Support.
