Ambox notice.png The latest version of this mod uses the guidelines for TNG v12+ cust_text.php files. If you are using TNGv12+, and any cust_text.php file in this mod is marked with a Bad Target error, you need to update your cust_text.php files before you can install this mod. [Show instructions]

If you upgraded to TNGv12+, and did not update your cust_text.php files as instructed in the upgrade readme script, then you must use the TNG Mod Manager to update them. To do so:

  1. Go to Mod Manager, and select its "Recommended Updates" tab.
    (If the "Recommended Updates" tab is not visible, then go to the Mod Manager Options tab, select "Display Settings", and turn on the "Recommended Updates" tab.)
  2. Click the "Update" button in the "Recommended Updates" tab.
    Installed mods do not interfere with the update, and if you already have (or think you may have) run this update, it will not hurt for you to run it again.

Preface

This modification was suggested by one of our users who's got a 6-digit ID.

Purpose of the mod

If a logged in user uses the Relationship calculator and is also registered in the current tree the mod will:

  • Insert the user as Person 2 if there is no one else
  • Insert a Me button between the input field and the Search... button if another person is already Person 2

The button is clicked to enter the user's ID into the input field.

If the user is not registered in the current tree the mod has no effect.
