I have a large database with almost 25 000 Individuals and a lot of sources from the Norwegian digital archives. Through their sources they provide a permanent link to the archival photo. I have added this link in my source citations like this.

For some reason, this permanent link has changed and all the links in my database are wrong. The change is not in the name of images themselves, but for the domain, so I hope it will be possible to mass-change the URLs. Doing it manually would take an eternity.

The link structure is like this:
Old link: http://www.arkivverket.no/URN:NBN:no-a1450-kb20051202030207.jpg.

New link: https://urn.digitalarkivet.no/URN:NBN:no-a1450-kb20051202030207.jpg

If I could basically just change "www.arkivverket.no/" to "urn.digitalarkivet.no/", the links work again.

Does anyone know how this can be done? I am not experience with SQL, but imagine it would be possible to do a replace command of some sort. 

Thanks in advance for any suggestions

I'd like to add a page to my website with web links.
I've already tried this, but I can't get the header onto the page. I'm doing something wrong, but I don't know what. Does anyone have any suggestions?
And how can I add the new page to the menu?
 

Weblink

<?php
include("begin.php");
include($cms['tngpath'] . "genlib.php");
include($cms['tngpath'] . "getlang.php");
include($cms['tngpath'] . "$mylanguage/text.php");

include($cms['tngpath'] . "checklogin.php");
tng_header( $text['homepage'], $flags );
?>

        


<h1>Weblinks</h1>

<ul>

<h3>Familiewebsites</h3>

<li><a href="http://test.test/" target="_blank">Test</a></li>
    
    <h6>Test</h6>    

</ul>
    
    
    <?php
tng_footer( "" );
?>

My site is located at: https://www.johnsdorsey.com/genealogy/index.php  When I click on my grandfathers image(William Paul Dorsey) it goes to his page, but says his spouse(or Family) is also William Paul Dorsey. However, going to this link(https://www.johnsdorsey.com/genealogy/getperson.php?personID=P2&tree=tree1) shows his spouse correctly as Frances Heath.

I've uninstalled all mods to eliminate that being an issue.

Thanks,

John Dorsey

I can see the value entered into the newacctform but want to ensure this was the correct place or is there someway to do this in custconfig file? I don't want to cause myself more work than required during an upgrade.

I also wondered if there was anyway to hide 'Phone' and 'Postcode' from the same form as we don't want to use these for our members.

Appreciate any assistance.

Hello, folks, let me clarify...

On my previous TNG site (14.0.6), I have many pictures that have many hundreds of people linked to those pictures, spread across 8-10 categories.  I do have a copy (backup) of my previous TNG 14.0.6 site, which I ran a 14.0.6-to-15.0.2 upgrade on, so I do have a database from a previous site will all my categories & photos in it, and which the database is compatible withTNG 15.0.2.

I installed my TNG 15.0.2 site from scratch, and have been slowly setting up my media on the new site from scratch.  It's a slow process, and I've managed to create a few categories manually so far.

For you MySQL gurus, is there a way that I can somehow, from that previoussite's tng_media table, export or extract all media items with a specific mediatypeID to a file, and then import all those items into a category on my live TNG 15.0.2 site?

As an example, I have a media category on my previous site with a mediatypeID called maps.  I wish to import everything in that category into a new (empty) category on my current site with a mediaID that I will call photosmaps when I create it.

What I wish to accomplish is to have all the maps from my previous site with all their associated (Linked to) people, imported into my new site, with all the maps & their associated (Linked to) people.

And if the above is indeed possible, is it better for me to already have the new category reated on my current site to import the maps (photos) into?  Or is it better to not have the maps category created yet, and have the import create it during the import process?

Apologies for not explaining that very well, but I hope it makes a little sense.

Thank you in advance & have a great day.

Regards,
John

So let's say I go Admin Home > Media > Add New, and try ti create an entry in collection "Histories". And for the sake of the example, I put text in the text box, fill the "Title" box, and click "Save and Continue". On the next page, I will set a media link to persons I1 and I100, and save. 

If I go to person I1, and click on the Histories link, the text will appear correctly. If I go to person 100, it does not display. Also, the footer is missing! 

Any idea? See the pictures attached. The first two show that the same text was linked to two individuals, #1 and #100. The third picture shows that for #1, the text appears, the links to all individuals are shown, and the footer is there. Not so much for individual #100, in the fourth picture; no text, no links, and no footer.

Same media, two results. Why?  WHY????

Is there a way to use mouse wheel zoom on media ?

I have this beautiful old map https://www.myfamhis.se/showmedia.php?mediaID=204 and it would be nice to be able to zoom with the mouse ...

Is there a good description / explanation / tutorial somewhere on how it works and how to use it?

Jesper

I figure I might be able to cobble something together using Python, BeautifulSoup etc. and feed that output into the LLM, but not sure what to do about all the data in the DB. 

Any ideas?  Has anyone written an agent to allow an LLM like ChatGPT or Claude to dig into the data in a TNG site and answer questions about its content with a degree of accuracy?

If not, does anyone know anyone who can be hired to write this?

Thank you.

This TNG modification includes several features:

Rip Prevention

It can help deter some of the automated processes that simply rip (copy) our sites for potential commercial gain. It monitors the time interval between visitor accesses. If the accesses are rapid and repeated, a warning is issued. If the accesses continue rapid and repeatedly, the visitor is temporarily banned and an explanation page is displayed. Warnings and bans are disabled for administrators.

A few rapid accesses will result in a warning page. Simply wait a few seconds and operation will return to normal. Repeated rapid access will result in a 60 second ban where an explanation page is displayed.

To deter those slow automated programs that scrape your site, you may optionally add a Rip Prevention Captcha challenge. If added, you may configure the number of visits within a specified time that you will be allowed before a graphical challenge is presented to confirm the visitor is human and not an automated program.

At present, the current ban is 60 seconds, which can be increased via your Mod Manager. You could upgrade the timeout to 3 hours or 12, but the attacks will more than likely continue.

One way to stop the automated process is increase the timeout. In my case, I went can of whoop ass, to 999999999 seconds. You can use a calculator to work that out in years.!!!

My attacks are now limited to around 3 a week. Amazon has vanished. Microsoft has given up. Bing (lmao) they crashed. Others are denied as they arrive.

We started to publish our family tree about 1 week ago. The names are there, but for many people the date and place of birth are missing.
There is a “Suggest” button to submit suggestions. But I would like to have a button at the top of the template header that is clearly visible. How can I realize this as code?

How can I globally access $entity_type or similar variables.

In the genlib.php the link to suggest.php with parameters is preserved. But when I do an echo - the return of the variable is empty.
I only want to access them in the header of the template and create a link for specific suggestions (person/family).
Sounds quite simple, but I haven't got the hang of it yet.

I've installed @EricD's mod "Add Person Pedigree" since today. I think it's great!!!!!

He describes on his page Add Person Pedigree, under CSS customization, that you can color the pedigree according to gender.

I'm still a beginner in CSS.

Where do I put this code???

I inserted it in templatestyle.css, but nothing happens.

I hope you can help me... Thank you in advance...

It's been so long since I worked on my genealogy template,  forgot how to do anything   Anyway, I get nothing but spammed through my contact form and was looking to maybe just put an email link there, but not sure how to go about that.  I did find the code in the footer section, but not sure how to make it a link instead.  Currently going to the suggest.php page, which is what I need to replace.  Can anyone help me with this:

Suddenly I have these weird A characters all over my website (I posted below so you can see) then are on the front end and back end.  I'm assuming it has something to do with the datebase, maybe an upgrade they did or something, but I don't know and not sure how to fix. Anyone have any suggestions?  This just stated within the last month. I didn't notice this last time I logged in.  Thanks

Hello, everyone,

I'm curious if anyone has successfully integrated a Cloudflare Turnstile widget on any of their TNG forms.  (The Cloudflare Turnstile widget is similar to Google's ReCAPTCHA v3.)

I've added that widget on one of my TNG test sites' 3 forms (loginlib.php , newacctform.php and suggest.php), but unfortunately they don't actually do anything, except check/verify to see if the user is human, or prompt the user to check a box if the widget cannot detect it automatically.  But regardless of the verification, even if the user does not manually verify that they're human, the user is able to proceed with the process (login, submit a New Account form, or Send Message to me).

The way that I have confirmed that the user is able to proceed regardless, is because with some of my browsers, the widget is not able to detect anything automatically, requiring me to check a box to confirm that I am human.  But when I do not manually check that box, I am still able to proceed with the process (login, submit a New Account form, or Send Message to myself).

What I am trying to figure out is, how to not let the user proceed if they are not verified as being human.

Hence my inquiry to see if anyone else has successfully implemented that widget, and that the widget does what it is supposed to do.

Thanks in advance & have yourselves a great weekend.

Regards,
John

it is appearing in admin_newplace.php, admin_editplace.php several OSM mod pages and other admin edit pages.

Looking for suggestions....

<form action="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Battle_of_Lechfeld"><input type="submit" value="Battle of Lechfeld" /></form>

I  have tried this in an event, and it works.  I entered it in a place note field, and it failed.

My users wanted a forum to discuss things instead of mailing eachother.

I couldn't find one to integrate into TNG that was easy to install, maintain and use and looked TNG.

And didn't need registration or log-in. (The users are already registred and logged-in...)

So I coded one myself.

It's been running for a while now, and I have now converted my "custom xerxx code" to a more "one code fits all".

Including a setup/edit forums panel (tough job that one!).

It seems to work okay...

Yes, here's the link to the demo version (DB will not update! Some small glitches occur because of that)

https://xerxx.se/forumDemo/indexDemo.php

Simply select the kind of user you want to be and click "Enter forum". This is not a log-in screen but initiating some cookies, differently for each role)

This is a bi-lingual collection of forums: The default language is Swedish, because my site is Swedish, but once inside you can select English by clicking the English (or German!) flag upper left.

(If you use the Search facility: Search for "Lorem" like "Lorem ipsum" to have some hits - it's almost all demo threads :D)

So: If it's running, why is there no mod? Because I need help with some things:

* How do I put the link into the Info-menu (preferred)?

Especially as I have some code also that looks for new posts since last log-in and puts a "N" to the Menu. (And - I wish - to the menu heading too)

I don't have DD menus at my site so I don't do DDs...

* Can someone code a drag-n-drop sort, like how to sort children in the Family Edit screen?

This would be wonderful for the Setup/edit screen. You will see how I solved it if you are an Administrator and go to the "Setup and Edit forum" forum.

I don't know anything about jQuery, that I guess it is.

* As I have only Swedish and English translations, there is of course a need for translations. A lot... See the attached file!

The forum initiation process allows for using two languages! One default and one extra.

I have a Swedish site but some American users so I use Swedish as the default forum language but if someone uses English (or German), the language will be English.

And some posts are written in two languages. The complete Help forum f.ex. Users may choose one or two languages.

* And testing!

If some dare-devil and experienced testers would volonteer, that would be greatly appreciated.

Useability, errors, potential errors, look-n-feel, English spelling and grammatic errors - anything goes.

Please add a post below if you want to help to make this mod come alive. Describe what you can do, so everybody knows, and PM me your e-mail and I'll contact you.

Thank you for your time and interest,

Erik

I wanted to query the community to see if anyone else has encountered the following issue:

- Assume a media item is linked to some individuals and at least once place.  Example:  census record.
- On any public page and on most admin pages, the media item shows the person/place links correctly.  Great!
- On an admin EDIT page (admin_editmedia.php), however, what should be a link to a *place* instead appears as a link to a *source*.  Puzzling!

Current setup:

- FTM 2019 importing to GEDCOM format
- Importing GEDCOM file to TNG while specifying "accept data for all new event types and attributes"
- TNG version 14.0.5 running locally on Windows with XAMPP server (This is my dev environment before uploading to web site)

I have tried the following:

- multiple GEDCOM imports
- inspecting/repairing MySQL (MariaDB) to check for data corruption
- manual data inspection of indexes and key fields using PhpMyAdmin for the tng_places, tng_sources, and tng_citations tables
- Searching this forum to see if anyone else has experienced this  (my apologies if I missed a posting on the same topic!)

Has anyone else encountered this?

I thought I'd poll the forum before bothering Darrin about it - maybe the error is on my part . . . .  Screenshots are attached to show what I'm seeing.

Thank you all!

Thomas

site.com/pgs/transcribeddata.php - Works

site.com/us_records/state/county/countysubfolder/transcribeddata.php - Failure.

I'm new to PHP so is there a special protocol for going multiple sub folders deep? I've tried updating it in the new .php file. It works as long as it's in /pgs/ any more subfolders then that it doesn't work. The file structure is CRITICAL so having tens of thousands(I have a lot, but not this many) of files within the /pgs/ sub folder is pointless. I'm fine with how it currently is laid out, but I would love to get it to work on the TNG side of things utilizing PHP instead of just straight HTML. All files have their correct extension. The issue comes when I create a subfolder within a subfolder.

I have a client that wants to add a link name in an additional language. In some of my templates, the user has the ability to "name" the link instead of getting the usual "More". For example, in my template 275 (https://genealogywebtemplates.com/tng/demoframes-public.html) there are links for "Those Who Served" and "Diseases". My client wants these links to be translated when a visitor chooses French as the language. How do I get a "Create copy in -" box on the template settings page in order for him to add the French text? The variable name is "headerlinktext".

Thanks for any help,
Marsha
