When I uploaded new photos and go to browsemedia, there are people who are linked to the wrong photo. not all of them, just a few. I can't seem to find the way to remove to people from linking to the wrong photo...if you know what i mean. EDIT: belay that last post. I found out where to fix this issue. Sorry about that.

Hi, How do I remove the beginning zero on dates 1 to 9, like 01 april to 1 april. I have that on several persons...not all but some. Thanks

Using mainly the Custom Menu Hook Mod sample, I made some changes to my main menu bar. One of those changes involved deleting the Calendar menu item from the Find drop down menu and moving it to the Info drop down menu. I would really prefer the Calendar to be a link on its own on the main menu bar on the same level with the drop down menu titles (but it would not be a drop down menu). If anyone can give me some guidance on how to do that, I would appreciate it. I’m using Template 19, TNG v13.1.1, Windows 10 WAMP server. Jackie

In T18 admin - Template Settings, in the feature links box, I know you can add as many links you'd like. What I'd like to know can you make a dropdown menu there? I'm starting to run out of room for stories and stuff. I really like t18 and would hate to have to use another template....thanks guys and gals.

SOLVED. Finally it makes sense and I think I know what is going on Thanks to everybody who joined in. I have learned a lot. <hr> Hi there - and happy new year to everyone in this lovely community! I hope it is okay to ask more questions in one thread. If not please tell me. (I have not installed the latest update from Darrin yet.) 1. Problems with stillborn: I use Legacy and register stillborn children with the correct type, which in Danish is "Dødfødt". TNG does not show this information. Why? When I check the GEDCOM it says "2 TYPE Dødfødt" for example for this person: https://tng.stegemueller.dk/getperson.php?personID=I1935&tree=HBS. Of course TNG does not understand Danish! When I check tng_eventtypes it shows that the event is an EVEN and not marked with the gedcom code STIL Does this mean there is an error in Legacy because it should return the GEDCOM code STIL? How can I fix the problem? Could I make search and replace in the GEDCOM? In case, what should it look like? But I make new imports fairly often so it would be extra work each time. 2. Share-button does not show icons: Earlier the "Share-button" in the menu line, did show icon for Facebook and a couple of others. These icons do not show up any more. How do I get them back? 3. Number of Custom Event Types: I have 79 event types, but I think the number of times they are used is much to small. I.e. ADOP seems not to be used at all (has a "0"). But I am adopted myself so there should at least be "1". The GEDCOM file has this "2 TYPE Adopteret". If I search relationship to father in Legacy I have 13 with the eventtype "Adopteret". Again is it a problem in Legacy? Another example is "MARB" (which I have translated to "Publication of the banns"). That is also "0" but I know I have many of them. Of course I have not been straight using the event types for all the 18 years I have done genealogy because the first years I had no idea I would make a website with TNG. But now I think I have a fairly good understanding of how a database works Is there something I have completely misunderstood?

I was quite sure I had it set up like this for several persons before. But apparently this is not the case. So... How do I hide all details (for not logged in guests) of a deceased person, without cheating by leaving the 'Living' checkbox marked? I know there is a 'Private' checkbox, but with that active, the name is still fully visible, only some details seem to be hidden. What am I missing, or do I not understand? It would be cool if there was a 'Hide deceased' option, that would change the name of an individual to 'Deceased', similar to how the 'Living' checkbox changes the name to 'Living'. (Running v.13.1.1) Thanks!

Hi Brent, Or anyone else of course. Any idea what's causing this and how to solve it? Uninstalled all mods and cleared cache before the update. Just to be sure I replaced all the pdfjs viewer files but without effect. Could it have something to do with three new .js files that came with TNG 13.1.1 ? Thx in advance, Rob

Hello and a happy new year to you all. I've decided to go live at this time (although it was live). It's 90% complete as far as cosmetics, how I wanted to design it and all. Still have a butt-load of data entry to do, but this will work for me and I hope you like it. If you visit, please report anything you see wrong, I'm open for comments and tips. https://www.joneshyman.org Thank you for your time.

I have been following the upgrade instructions for 11.x to 13.x and all was going well until i tried to execute 7. Update the database structure. I got the error: This page isn’t working [sitename] is currently unable to handle this request. HTTP ERROR 500 I now get this error on every page on my site. Please can someone advise what I may have done wrong or where to look.

The long bar menu that's on every page in t18, is not on the main front page. What do i need to do to add it there? Thanks Some call it the ribbon menu.....

T18 has only 2 features in admin -> template settings. I would like to add several more features directly under Feature 2 ( on the front page). I know I'll need to mod some code in t18's index.php. I need some help with at least getting started with this. Thanks. Could I maybe copy a section of code ( a div perhaps) and paste it where it belongs and edit it that way? From what it looks like, I can do 2 features, one on the left and one on the right? I'll attach a picture of it..... The left half is only just that half. I could fit another feature to the right. Well I've been looking at that screen. don't look like 2 columns, so how would i stretch feature 2 the whole width? and start another right underneath feature 2? in t18 index.php there's this piece of code.... what does this mean? after looking at the templatestyle.css, maybe there are 2 columns..... <?php echo getTemplateMessage('t18_featurepara2'); $tl2 = getTemplateMessage('t18_featurelink2'); if($tl2) { ?>

lists all the getTemplateMessage's for that particular template? if there is I cannot find it. is there one? UPDATE: never mind, I found it. it's templateconfig.php is what I was looking for....

ok, i give up. where do you edit the nav menu for t19? you know, the Home Search Logout etc. menu bar?

My site was working without any problem but now I cannot open any page without receiving the following error: Query: SELECT MAX(visitDate) AS max1 from WHERE visitUser = 'Admin'; You have an error in your SQL syntax; check the manual that corresponds to your MariaDB server version for the right syntax to use near 'WHERE visitUser = 'Admin'' at line 1 Any suggestions? I did make an small adjustment to the customconfig.php file. Removed the change same result, Installed a blank customconfig,php file stilll the same result. www.lathro.pe

I wonder if it's possible to change the order in which media types are displayed on the getperson.php page? I'd like to be able to display the "Documents" section BEFORE the "Photos" section. If it's possible to do so, how to do it?

this is what it should look like and it's the same for all extrapages. all files are in tng/extrapages/ even the 3 that are not showing the header. include( "../begin.php"); if( !$cms['support'] ) $cms['tngpath'] = "../"; include($cms['tngpath'] . "genlib.php"); $textpart = "getperson"; include($cms['tngpath'] . "getlang.php"); include($cms['tngpath'] . "$mylanguage/text.php"); $link = tng_db_connect($database_host,$database_name,$database_username,$database_password) or exit; include($cms['tngpath'] . "checklogin.php"); include($cms['tngpath'] . "log.php" ); //if (! $currentuser) { //@include($cms['tngpath'] . "TNG_captcha.php"); //} //$logstring = "<a href=\"extrapgs/faq.php\">Frequently Asked Questions</a>"; //writelog($logstring); //preparebookmark($logstring); ?> <?php tng_header( $text[faq], $flags );?> <a name="top"></a> <?php if (strpos($mylanguage, "English") === false) { ?> <!--GOOGLE TRANSLATE--> <div align="right" id="google_translate_element"></div><script> function googleTranslateElementInit() { new google.translate.TranslateElement({ pageLanguage: 'en' }, 'google_translate_element'); } </script><script src="http://translate.google.com/translate_a/element.js?cb=googleTranslateElementInit"></script> <!--end of GOOGLE TRANSLATE--> <?php } ?> <h1 class="header"><span class="headericon" id="faq-hdr-icon"></span><?php echo $text['faq']; ?></h1><br clear="left" /> <?php if (! $currentuser) { @include($cms['tngpath'] . "TNG_captcha.php"); } $logstring = "<a href=\"extrapgs/faq.php\">Frequently Asked Questions</a>"; writelog($logstring); preparebookmark($logstring); ?> <span class="normal"> <b><?php echo $text['avail']; ?></b> </span>

https://wiki.simplemachines.org/smf/Integration_hooks Would it be possible for one of ya'll to read and explain to me what line of code I'll need to integrate smf into my tng? just got home from the hospital and their keeping me pretty much out of things...

Hi there - and merry, merry Christmas! I suddenly have a new issue with media files: I can only add them to one person/ID. I.e. I have many gravestones as they are a wonderful source to death dates, and often there are more names on the stones, so I can use them for more individuals (i.e. both husband and wife). Just to illustrate: This image should be used by both individuals: https://tng.stegemueller.dk/showmedia.php?mediaID=736&amp;medialinkID=517 When I try to link the image to person number two, I get the message, that the image is already in use by another person, and therefore it can not be linked again. This is a new issue as I have tons of family images with several persons on them. You might need this extra information: Everything is updated: TNG v. 13.1 and template is 209 from Marsha Bryant. I add data from GEDCOM created by Legacy. I do not enter data directly in TNG except for geo codes. Kindest regards, Hanne

I haven't updated my TNG site in several months and have forgotten how to do things (I wasn't very tech savvy before but since COVID it is worse). Is there a manual that tells how to do things on TNG? I cannot figure out why my picture from "photos" is not showing up when I change a pictureinfo on Template 15 homepage. I find it in "Photos" and change the template to the same name but it doesn't come up on the homepage. Also, since updated to 13.0.3, I have many duplicate pictures in my "Photos". One has jpg on the end and the other doesn't. Thank you. Also, two "Index" photos show up on my photos, is that normal?

Do I need to install a cms just to have a decent forum? can't find anything that would easily fit in my extrapages template. I'd gladly use the forum for tng mod, except a user has to logged in just to view the forum.. i don't care anout the login side of things. just not something separate from tng....if you know what i mean. i've searched hi and lo here, there, everywhere. any ideas? thanks. i already have my live site setup and working good, so i really don't want to have to go with a cms....... If there's a way to install a cms without having to scrap tng and redo it. I'll consider it, at least try it on my wam64 server here at the house....

Just installed the update to 13.1 from 12.x. All went well except, when I tried to log in, my Admin login failed. After panicking and tearing my hair for an hour or so, I discovered that the problem was that version 12.x would accept upper and lower case letters in the user name as being equivalent. However, 13.1 has (rightly so) eliminated this equivalency and insists that both the User Name and password match EXACTLY! Of course my browser had happily stored my login credentials precisely as I had entered them including the wrong case for one letter! Hope this helps someone.

Is there an updated process for integrating google analytics into a TNG site? On the forum, there are some posts from 2017/18, which I tried, but cant seem to get it to work. Just wondering if there are any updates to the process for version 13?

My extrapages template (based on the historytemplate). How do I code a link such as <a ref="localhost/tng/extrapages/smfforum.php"</a> forgot the h in a href. is this feasable? or do i need more code? normally i have been using text for the extra pages, thanks.

Hello everybody, is there a way to set all notes to private at once? In the settings I have not found anything and have seen so far there is no mod for it ..... I hope someone can still help me! Thanks in advance.

It would be nice to be able to display a tree of certain individuals based on say a hidden custom event on their record. i.e. you want a subset of the database displayed as a tree. Obviously you can create a report to extract the individuals but it would be nice to see how they related in a tree view.
