Family Tree

Genosis


I've actually tried playing with several different variations of the pedigree view, but to get any "bigger" requires doing it in flash/javascript, and the options for doing that are pretty limited, and I've not liked what I've been able to come up with so far. It's actually an item on my "todo" list, but it's not something that has been a high priority.

Linking Problem

Genosis


You need to link them as a spouse before you can add the marriage event. From one of the profiles click on "Add New Spouse" in the left hand menu, then when that comes up click on the "Link to Existing Person" button in the upper right - select the spouse and save. Now you can create a Marriage event and they will show up as an option in the link field.

Hope this helps!

jrCore_db_search_items parameter issue

Jamroom Developers


Actually this isn't true any longer (as of the 5.2 core). If you use either of the "not" searches - i.e.

!=
not_like

It will include items that do NOT have the key set (since they of course "match"). The problem here is that you're searching for an empty string, which is NOT going to work (since jrCore_db_search_items expects at minimum 3 parts to a search parameter).

for this you want to use a not_like search - i.e.


That says "get me profile_latitude entries where the value is NOT 1 or more characters".

Hope this helps!

Drupal critical security vulnerability

Off Topic

Wow - I'm surprised at how "user unfriendly" all that is. I'm a developer and I'm not sure I even understand what they are saying needs to be done about the red "user_warnings". What a mess. I agree - convert to JR

Drupal critical security vulnerability

Off Topic

This is really just an FYI as I know that some Jamroom users are also Drupal users, but make sure you see this:

https://www.drupal.org/PSA-2014-003

The important part is that unless you patched your Drupal install within a couple hours of the patch being available, your site could already be hacked. Make sure and work with your hosting provider to restore from a backup if needed.

Hope this helps!

Family Tree

Genosis


Thanks for that - that's really awesome


Do you mean doing some type of hosted system where multiple trees could be "linked" together somehow?

Thanks!

Gedcom Didn't Sync

Genosis

Just an update here that I'm not seeing any profile duplication when I'm importing from a Genosis GEDCOM export of my tree, but I am seeing duplication of events. Could I get you to send the GEDCOM you're seeing the duplicate profiles with to me at brian [at] jamroom [dot] net? Thanks!

Off Topic

OK - let me get on their case about this, as it's obvious they are not actually looking at the issue correctly.

Can you do me a favor? What I'd like to do is setup a really simple "test" script on your server to clearly show the issue - can you contact me at support [at] jamroom [dot] net with your FTP info if that is OK with you?

Thanks!
