Tips

  • Yahrzeits saved on people's profiles show too โ€” no need to add a plaque for those.
  • "Yahrzeits: title (optional)" changes the panel's heading, e.g. "ื™ืืจืฆื™ื™ื˜ื™ื ื”ืฉื‘ื•ืข".

If something isn't working

"Enter the name"

"Name in English" is required, even if you show the Hebrew name.

"Choose the Hebrew date (or enter the English date)"

Pick both day and month, or type the English date.
