    Redirect upon login

    I would like for users to be presented a different page after logging into the site. Right now, the only things that change upon successful login is the Main Menu bar. The page itself is still the front page (Home Page) which has verbiage to register.. All family members are welcome to use the site by logging in above. Don't have a login? Register for New User Account I think the best solution is to redirect to a different page upon successful login, which will probably be a mirror of the Home page without the above verbiage, or maybe redirect to What's New. I suspect that this is simple and I just am missing it somewhere.

    Change inlog page

    I'm looking for a way to change the inlog page: go to a custom page. I made a custom page (historytemplate) with some explanation items about or goal, methods...... Now I want to show it to all visitors when they arrive at our URL (now I'm working with Xampp). Is it possible to show the custom page before or else after the login procedure. And then, with a button to click on the custom page, go to the real TNG.
  4. I did not work with aldfaer my self, but my companions did before they made the step forwards to TNG. Does anyone know where the 'facts' from aldfaer are stored in TNG on importing the gedcom from aldfaer?
  5. I have used Laragon, Uniserver, IIS, Wampserver and xammps for local development. I am using Laragon and Wamp mostly these days. As I migrate to a new laptop I am looking at what are my best options. The choices I am considering are using Laragon and/or WampServer on the new laptop OR setting up a PC to run as a server. If that is the case I am happy with Windows or Linux (possibly AlmaLinux). A NAS is not really an option at this stage. I have researched considerably and am unsure which may be better. The requirements are to run multiple PHP versions for each local host diectory. I do not want to change PHP versions in Wamp/Laragon each time. I have read about PHP-FPM, adding Directories to run specific PHP versions, using a separate port for each PHP version and using FastCgi. While I know there will be a variety of opinions from Forum members, I would like to hear any suggestions. Thanks

    Just a little survey

    Hey everyone. I've moved my localhost server from my main pc to my older Dell Optiplex and wanted to take a little survey as to what you guys and gals are using for you home server. 1. Are you using Windows or Linux? Currently I'm using Windows 11 pro. 2. Which WAMP or LAMP are you using? I was using Wampserver x64 on my Windows machine. (Might try Laragon...I've heard some of y'all say it's pretty good) 3. What version PHP are you using? I try to run the same version as my SimplyHosting server is running...v7.4.something... 4. What Version of TNG are using? I'm using TNG v14.02. Told ya it was just a little survey...
  8. I undertook some remote testing with MySQL 8 on TNG 14.0.2 with some disastrous gedcom import times. I import all data, including media links, from desktop software periodically after 'clearing' the table with 'replace all data'. Connection to the database went well, with config.php set to required values. $database_host = "localhost"; $database_port = "3308"; $database_socket = "/tmp/mysql8.sock"; Database was set to: Storage engine = InnoDB Collation (and all tables) = utf8mb4_0900_ai_ci (recommended by ICDSoft, my provider). Diagnostic on Admin had all green check with the expected versions listed. With MySQL 5.7 , MyISAM storage engine and collation of "utf8mb4_general_ci" , my gedcom import of 15,000 persons and 3,000 media normally completes in a minute or so. The database was empty, and a gedcom import was started. With MySQL 8, I stopped the import after 1/2 hour when only 2,000 people had been imported. At that rate, I estimate the import would take roughly 4 hours. From looking around, there are apparently some SQL commands such as having no cache, and disabling commit, etc., that might shorten this time, but something seems seriously awry populating this transactional database. I did google about a bit and see that slow import is not uncommon but slower by a factor of 240:1 than MySQL 5? I didn't look yet at any logs to see what might be happening. Would like to hear from those who import all data with acceptable speeds on MySQL 8. I know the official expiration of MySQL 5 is this October, but support and maintenance updates will continue into 2026, do no short term urgency. However, MySQL was intially released nearly 5 years ago, so was shocked by the import times. Wanted to hear from the forum first, before pass a note to Darrin. I am hoping there's something to fix or improve in gedimport.php. Lastly, 5 of the 6 mods (listed) I use which creating tables did so with the proper collation. The one that did not was the "who is online" mod. It installs, but the table creation fails with a popup of "-1". Mod Table Created Tables properly with MySQL8 parameters Cousins tng inlaw marriages, tng cousin marriages Persistent Bookmarks tng bookmarks Show All Family tng show all family Sosa tng sosa Failed to create table Who is Online tng users online Created table but with SQL 5 storage engine and collation Treetops treetops
  9. This is obviously a minor TNG glitch, since it existed at least back to TNG11 and has gone unreported. Clicking on the Individual page Relationship tab, then subsequently the Simple Relationship Search to refresh the form after a calculation, (See further explanation at the end of this thread). I noticed the 'Person 2' birthdate is formatted differently than 'Person 1'. See the examples. The Abbreviation prefix 'b' is missing, as well as the month being uppercase. Also, if you were using the Dates_-_Mth_Day,_Year mod, the conversion would be ineffective. Darrin has a TNG14 fix for relateform.php (attached), and it will be in the next update. Just a reminder: if you copy the relateform.php to your tng files, make sure to first uninstall any mods that modify relateform.php. relateform.php
  10. Hi All, I would like to share this Shortcode Constructor with you. TNG Shortcode Constructor is a stripped down version of The TngApi V3.3 plugin for Wordpress. You may download latest release here. TngApi V3.3, a stand-alone plugin, published in 2015, integrates smoothly with TNG to display genealogy data in Wordpress pages. It's main attraction was the ability of the user to add / amend family data and ability of the administrator to perform one-click transfer of this data to tng database. With changes to MySQL, my extremely limited knowledge of mySQL and changes to TNG database structure , I have found it virtually imposible to support this feature. (I understand that, now, a TNG mod, the Family Group Worksheet ,has the facility for administrators to merge data in to TNG database.) Plan is to have the TNG Shortcode Constructor do everything the TngApi did, except update TNG data. Plugin obtains it's credentials from TNG setup. Plugin shares it's variables with TngApi Plugin Settings are in Wordpress Admin>Settings It implements Privacy Credentials in the TNG General SetUp>Privacy and User , if logged in. I have kicked it off with the following shortcodes from the TngApi. TngWp_birthdays List birthdays for the selected month. TngWp_danniversaries List death anniversaries for the selected month. TngWp_gone (Gone But Not Forgotten). Gives birth dates and deat hdates for yesterday, today and tomorrow. It is encapsulated in a DIV and it may be possible to include that in your content. ( I have used similar in my Home Page) TngWp_LandingPage This is similar to 'TngWp_gone' but has user name, birthdays, marriage anniversaries and death anniversaries added. TngWp_manniversaries List of marriage anniversaries for the selected month. TngWp_MyShortcode Template for adding your own shortcode TngWp_submitImage Upload images from Wordpress. Image will be stored in a TNG Media Collection specified by you. I am not sure whether this is helpful or whether it will work but I am hoping that we may start having contributions of variety of shortcodes to add to this constructor, for the TNG community to share. If you would like to know how to add your own shortcode, lots more details on GitHub Repository, here This very much a project that can evolve so please free to Fork and submit Pull requests if you would like to make changes to the Plugin. I would really love to have your feedback, so if you download, let me know Thanks. (PS; I still have not got the hang of formating this post😫. Hence several edits)
  11. Hello. I have an issue that is baffling me. This just started recently. In searchform.php and famsearchform.php, the right column (in the screenshot) scrolls with the page when you scroll down, like it's not in a fixed position. This is happening on my live site and local site. I've tried several different templates and it still does the scrolling thing. Does anyone have any ideas or seen this before? I haven't changed anything in those files. The only changes I've been making is to colors in template31 (modified template 21) /css/mytngstyle.css and templatestyle.css. I'm baffles about this....

    Can't create PDF's

    Version 14

    Hello Community, my system: NAS Synology with PHP 7.4.30, MariaDB 10.3.32, Apache 2.4.54 WebServer my problem: over the turn of the year I tried to upgrade my TNG version from 13.1.2 to 14 following the upgrade instructions. This unfortunately went horribly wrong, so after several quite unsuccessful attempts I finally had no choice but to try the full version 14 - this of course first lost everything. Luckily I had created and saved a fresh Gedcom file. In all the stress I didn't even think about saving my user table. The restart worked smoothly until the MOD's were installed. When inserting a htaccess file and also the bot-trap-mod 12.0.0.5 there were errors again - the browser window showed error 500. Only after both files are removed again, the page runs halfway. The data seems to be completely available, but I have to check and renew the links to the media. I also noticed that the fields for the occupation of the persons and also the links to the community are no longer available (apparently in all templates?)- or are perhaps my current files damaged again? I hope, you had a calmer start into the new year Many greetings Horst

    Ancestor view corrupted

    Hello everyone, When I select a person and go to the ancestors (vertical chart) there is code visible. Showing the maximum of generations available for that perons reveals a normal picture. (code disappears) Anyone else experiencing this?

    Data Protection Policy in Danish

    I'm educated lawyer, so I also have focus on GDPR, rules and regulations. Therefore I've translated Data Protection Policy file into Danish, so that it is almost according to Danish (means European) rules. On my own I have on added this - so this is not part of the standard file (it is my own "invention"): Almost because: According to the Danish/European rules it should to be possible to accept some cookies and reject others before entering the site. TNG does not offer this possibility. You can only accept, because the button says "OK" and nothing else. Conclusion: You can download and use my file if you like. It is so precise as possible according to the rules. But it is not 100 percent legally. But you will show your customers that you have done so much as possible. data_protection_policy.php
  16. Hi I have tried to find a way to add a document which consists of several pages to the document section in the media gallery, but so far no solution. Is there at way to do this? I first tried to add the document as a pdf-file, but no matter what I did, I only got a message telling me the pdf-file was too large according to settings in the php.ini file.

    Assign People Their Own Tree?

    I'm just curious what you all do, and yes, I know it's up to me, just looking for feedback. When you get a new person to your site, do you set them as the starting or home person? I was wondering because I don't follow every single line. So I might have a 1st to 3rd cousin or whatever that I have the basics on them and nothing else. Obviously, they can backtrack and find the line that goes further. Or I can leave it and set it with myself and they can find it. What do you do? Pros and cons?
  19. Good morning, Under a new law, in Quebec, we should no longer publish data on people who died less than 30 years ago. Is there a utility option or program that a user would have developed for TNG to hide this data? Our base file contains this information. We would like to hide them except for the site administrators. Any help will really be accepted with great gratitude. Jean-Pierre Levasseur

    Question Before Buying

    Hello all! First, wow... Just holy wow! I was looking for an alternative to Tribal Pages and saw someone mention TNG. Yesterday I spent a lot of time on the site, reading each link and looking at everything and how much you can do with this. Just WOW! Before I pull the trigger and buy, I have a couple of questions that was probably answered but I missed. 1 - Does this pull from Ancestry like FTM? Or --- After you have uploaded your GEDCOM --- add each ancestor and info as your research progresses? 2 -- I select a template and like the format, yadda, yadda, yadda.... Next year I change my mind/find another template I would like to use. Is that possible? Will I have to start all over? Will my img tags, etc. all stay intact? Thank you for the help, I can't wait to get into this! I just got my front end dev cert so this makes me very excited. Don
  21. I have two trees uploaded to my TNG site. One is my first tree I made on my TNG site. The other is one I loaded in from Myheratige.com. I want only one tree for view to guests. If that is not possible I guess I can save the first tree offline to my computer? I want to not allow visitors to see the first tree but for allow me to crosscheck data if I need. Peace, kozman

    PDF charts

    I have been revamping the look and feel of my site with a new template from Marsha at Genealogy Web Templates. and doing a general cleanup recently. I noticed the option to generate a PDF version of many of the pages and charts on the Individual and Family pages. To be honest I have always ignored that option in the past. I was never able get it to work. I believe I once found a way to remove the link from the menu options but, for the life of me, I cannot remember how I did it. I searched this site and the wiki to try and find a hint but I guess I am looking in the wrong places. I am looking for some help to: Remove the menu option for users who are not logged in. Get the feature working for logged in users. For what it's worth, on my Synology NAS I do get the following message if I select the PDF option. I do not get any message my www.craswell.ca site (Simply Hosting). Fatal error: Uncaught Error: Call to undefined function gzcompress() in /volume1/web/tng13/tfpdf.php:1925 Stack trace: #0 /volume1/web/tng13/tfpdf.php(2271): tFPDF->_putfonts() #1 /volume1/web/tng13/tfpdf.php(2326): tFPDF->_putresources() #2 /volume1/web/tng13/tfpdf.php(291): tFPDF->_enddoc() #3 /volume1/web/tng13/tfpdf.php(1208): tFPDF->Close() #4 /volume1/web/tng13/rpt_ind.php(442): tFPDF->Output() #5 {main} thrown in /volume1/web/tng13/tfpdf.php on line 1925
  23. When persons are marked private or living they will show up as ‘Living’ or ‘Private’ and no personal data is shown. My question is if it is possible to not show the person at all. Reason is that by showing just the person as living or private with the gender you already reveal personal information that I would like to hide. Example: If a family has 5 children and 2 of those are living or private I want to see only 3 children and not 5.

    Solved: Character set problem with just one individual

    Hi I need a little bit of help from clever experts. In Danish we have many special characters i.e. æ, ø, å - and we often use ü, which I also have in my own surname. Issue: On data about myself all the characters are wrong. On all others persons they are correct. Here is an example: https://tng.stegemueller.dk/getperson.php?personID=I630&tree=HBS You can see that Stegemüller is correct on my father Jørgen Stegemüller in the field "Name". The line line below with the field "Relationship" I am spelled "Stegem?ller". If you go to data about me here: https://tng.stegemueller.dk/getperson.php?personID=I1&tree=HBS you'll see that it is crazy with all the special characters. Data/characters about myself in the GEDCOM-file are correct. The GEDCOM-file is encoded with: "1 CHAR UTF-8". (Data come from Legacy Pro) Notepad++ tells: UTF-8 in the right corner in the bottom. In TNG I have the same as always: Setup >> Configuration >> General Settings: Language folder = "Danish UTF-8" and Character set: "UTF-8" In phpMyAdmin the database has collation as always: utf8_unicode_ci I have never experienced this before. How can it be correct on everybody except me? What can I do to make everybody correct? Well edited: If you look here: https://tng.stegemueller.dk/search.php?mybool=AND&myfirstname=&mylastname=wagnholt you can see, that there are more issues wit i.e. "ø"

    Do I need to create thumbnails off-line?

    This must sound like a dumb question, but does TNG have some sort of process for creating thumbnails, or do I need to do it off-line for each photo that I upload?
