Sorry Paul - jumping the gun a bit here

Migrate from Ning to Jamroom

Suggestions

Thanks for the feedback Ken - we're excited that things are progressing well and are hoping we can help a lot of Ning users looking to take control over their own site and future.

Paul has worked really hard on this, so the positive feedback is really awesome. We're only getting started too - over the next couple months you'll see our Ning support and setup really take off - we've just created a new "Ning to Jamroom" profile setup exclusively for Ning users:

Feel free to post any feedback, suggestions, questions or what not and we can help.

Thanks!

Gedcom Didn't Sync

OK I've tested this here, and I'm not getting any duplicates. Can I get you to walk me through how you are doing your export/import? Here's what I did:

1) first I imported one of your GEDCOM files to a new tree (I used the largest GEDCOM you sent me)

2) I modified some of the profiles

3) I exported the the tree, then re-imported it

I'm assuming what you are doing is that you have 2 trees - one that is the "master" and the one you are working on. So you start with an initial GEDCOM export, and import that. Then you do more work on "work" tree, export again, and re-import to the "master" tree.

Let me know if that sounds right or if you're doing this a different way. One thing (and I don't think you're doing it but I am not sure) is that you don't want to DELETE the "work" tree after your export/import to the master tree. And you don't want to start a NEW tree to work on (hopefully that makes sense).

The reason you don't want to do that is because every profile in Genosis has a special "GEDCOM ID", and that ID is used to "sync" the profiles. So for example, let's say you create a new profile in your work tree, and it has an ID of 100. When you import to the master tree, it will look for an existing profile with an ID of 100 - if it finds it, it knows it has already imported that profile previously and will instead update it.

So if you can, let me know the exact steps you're taking so I can hopefully replicate the issue here.

Thanks!

Sourcing Question

Genosis


Yep - you can create a stand alone Source. Click on "Sources" in the header, then click on the "Create New Source" button in the upper right - that way you can pre-create a source without creating from a new/updated event.

Hope this helps!

Gedcom Didn't Sync

Genosis


Yep - received them here - thanks for sending these along. The GEDCOM import is a very complicated process, so it may take me a little bit to get everything squared away but I'm working on it

This has been fixed in Genosis Events 1.2.4 - update and let me know if you see any issues.

Hope this helps!

Looks like there is a call to jrUser_admin_only() in there that is blocking it - I will get that fixed up and a new release pushed out as you should be able to do that as the user.

Hope this helps!
