Geoff1959 Posted December 27, 2016 Report Share Posted December 27, 2016 TNG Timeline www.serlefamilyhistory.geoff-searle.co.uk TNG11.0.2 Template 14 I seem to remember a timeline mod that has all major historical events included within it. Was I dreaming as cannot seem to find it any more? If it does exist is it compatable with TNG11? I have looked in TNG mods but cannot see anything like "Timeline" or "World Events". Am I confusing two different things, when you search and display info on an individual and select time line. There is an option to "add people" but how do you add events to that time line? At the moment all that I can see is one event relating to the sinking of the Titanic. Thanks in advance. Geoff. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ken Roy Posted December 27, 2016 Report Share Posted December 27, 2016 I don't remember any timeline mods, but there used to be Timeline database backups that could be downloaded from the TNG download site. I don't use that TNG feature, so I have not checked whether the downloads are there for TNG v11. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Geoff1959 Posted December 28, 2016 Author Report Share Posted December 28, 2016 Hi Ken, Within TNG in the Admin section I have just found a section "Timeline Events". You can indeed add world events this way so this one solution. If anybody knows a way of uploading a list of world events (if such a thing exists) that would be really helpful. I'm thinking of things such as Boer War, Crimean War, Battle of Waterloo, death of Queen Victoria that sort of thing. Any help or advice welcomed.

Hiraeth Posted December 28, 2016 Report Share Posted December 28, 2016 There is a selection of Timeline files in the TNG Extras section on the TNG Downloads page (http://tng.lythgoes.net/downloads11/index.php). The TNG Timeleine (UK) file contains the events that you cite. You can add and edit events in Admin > Timeline Events. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Geoff1959 Posted December 31, 2016 Author Report Share Posted December 31, 2016 Thanks Graham that is just what I was looking for. For those who may read this at a later date the file is a .BAK backup file which is zipped. It is a good idea to backup any timeline events that you have already created as these will be wiped. It looks like a CSV file so you should be able to merge the file with your existing one if you need to. Anyone who needs help please message me.
