Notes | It's possible (though unverified), that lower TNG-versions can handle this change of the Whats New Form Mod. |
Introduction
This modification provides the means whereby the public What's New page includes the capability to limit the inclusion of recent Persons and Families that have changed, and the maximum number of media files to preview (e.g., Photos, Documents, Headstones). When the What's New page is first used within a browser session, these two limits will start out as per values selected by a system administrator using General Settings >> Miscellaneous options.
Developer
This mod was developed by and is currently supported by Bob Carver.
