The Next Generation of Genealogy Sitebuilding© ("TNG") is a powerful way to manage and display your genealogy data on the Internet,
all without generating a single page of HTML. Instead, your information is stored in MySQL database tables and dynamically displayed in attractive fashion with PHP (a scripting language).
Want to learn more? While here you can:
If your web server supports PHP and MySQL,
you can set up and run TNG with very little effort. Don't settle for 'ancient' site creation methods that leave you with thousands of dull-looking HTML pages!
Need Hosting?
Need a low-cost hosting provider who supports PHP/MySQL? I recommend Simply Hosting, for only $4.99/month (or less if you pay annually).
They're very friendly to TNG users and will even help you with the installation if necessary. Plus, they'll give TNG users the first month of hosting free!
You could also try the host I use, ICDSoft.com. They have excellent support and are only $6/month (paid annually). A good
option for both US and international users.
New & Improved in TNG 6:
- Descendancy Chart: Now see an individual's descendants in graphical "box" style, with photos (where they exist).
- Pedigree Chart: Move smoothly back and forth among your ancestors without refreshing the page, using AJAX technology.
- Media: All around more flexible. Plus, now link media directly to events and places. Videos and sound recordings are supported now also.
- Albums: Assemble any number of photos, histories, or other media into an "album" to create experiences around specific
individuals, families or other topics.
- Timelines: See lifetime events for each person on your timeline chart, plus add events for any date in history.
- Bookmarks: Allow users to save pages within your site that they'd like to visit again.
- Latitude & Longitude: Add coordinates to media & places, possibly for use with Google Maps and other programs.
- New Menus: It's easier to get around your site, and the options are more readable too.
- Admin Overhaul: Many improvements in the administrative area make online site management a breeze.
- Spam Control: We've made it much harder for spammers to take control of your web forms and fill up your in box.
- Security: Passwords are now encrypted with MD5, making them impossible to decipher.
- Search: You'll find more search options, with faster results.
- Plus many more improvements! See a complete list of all changes here. Tested on all major browser platforms.
