Purpose of the Mod
This mod was developed from a discussion on Adding a map to Ancestry for an individual, Putting all ancestors for an individual on a google map in this TNG Forum entry It will add a new link to the Ancestors tab on a getperson.php page that shows a map with all of the places (that have been geocoded) for that person's ancestors.
TNG version: | ≥ 9.0 |
The following files are available to change an installed copy of Ancestor Map Mod if you have installed one of the following other Google Map mods
- for the Google Maps - Change Pin Legend Mod ancestors_map_2_change_pin_layout_v9.0.0.0.zip
- for the Google Maps - More Place Levels Mod ancestors_map_3_add_4_placelevels_v9.0.0.1.zip
- for the Google maps 15 ancestors_map_4_google_maps_15_v9.0.0.1.zip
Note that you must choose the correct file to install based of which of the above other mods you installed.
Developer
This mod was developed by Developer is Réal Charlebois
TNG8 version by Bryan S. Larson
Config file for TNG V8.1.2 updated by Roger Moffat to work correctly, and have the variables quoted.
Mod was updated for TNG V9 by Roger Moffat to follow the Living and Private access rules as well as quoted variables from the TNG 8 Revision and tweaks for validation.
Mod was updated for TNG V10 by Roger Moffat to handle changes in innermenu caused by the addition of the Vertical Ancestor Chart to TNG.
Known Issues
For the maps to work you must have geo-coded locations in your tree!
TNG version: | ≤ 8.1.0 |
Other issues:
- mappedigree.php is still coded in TNG V7 style without the quoted variables used in TNG V8
- pins in Event table are not numbered
- pins in Event table are shown with a border (See sites using the mod for visualization of these last 2 issues)
- currently does not support the Google_Maps_-_More_Place_Levels_Mod
- The ancestors_map_placelevel_v8.1.0.zip file can be installed on top of the Ancestor Map mod to address the previous 3 issues shown above. Note that if you don't have the Google_Maps_-_More_Place_Levels_Mod installed, you should rework the ancestors_map_placelevel config file and only use location 2 to fix the other two issues.
TNG version: | ≥ 8.1.2 |
The above issues have been fixed in the
Ancestors_map_v8.1.3.cfg.zip file linked above
TNG version: | ≥ 9.0 |
The above issues have been fixed in TNG V9.
Requirements
- a working TNG installation of TNG8 or TNG9.
- Geo-coded locations

V10.0.0.0 | 12 February 2014 | Updated for compatibility with TNG 10.0.0. |
V9.0.0.6 | 23 April 2012 | Minor bug fix. Another attempt at fixing issue where sometimes "%A0" would display in a place name. |

V9.0.0.3 | 13 April 2012 | Minor bug fix. Corrected issue where people with certain prefixes in their names like "von" or "de" were being displayed with "%A0" in the name in the balloon on the map and in the table to the right of the map, instead of a space after the prefix. Also corrected an issue that stopped the map displaying if there was an apostrophe in a person's name. |
V9.0.0.2 | 21 March 2012 | Minor bug fix. Corrected issue where Map would not show if the TNG Admin setting for Miscellaneous ------> "Individuals start with:" was set to "Personal information only" preventing the map from showing at all. |

Automated Installation Requirements
- Remove previously installed version
- Download the appropriate zip file from the Mod Summary in the upper right hand corner
- Unzip the downloaded zip file to your mods folder in TNG V8 and above
- Follow the normal automated installation for Mod Manager, as shown in the example Mod Manager - Installing Config Files to install the ancestors_map_.cfg
- Delete previous version
If you have other Goggle Map mods installed, you may need to install additional fixes to the Ancestor Map mod
Custom Text Additions
Note that config file only includes the English language changes, so if you support multiple languages you will need add these lines to each of your language cust_text.php files with appropriate translations of course.
// added for use with mappedigree file $text['ancestorsmap'] = "Map";
For example, you would add to the French/cust_text.php
// added for use with mappedigree file $text['ancestorsmap'] = "Carte";
Or you can use the language mods in the summary in the upper right corner of this page to add Dutch, French or Spanish custom text additions. Procedure: download, unzip to TNG mods folder, install using Mod Manager. Note that these language mods work for all versions!
If you want to add another language please send me the translation (either the texts or as a full language mod) and your name (so I can give you credit) by sending me a personal message from the TNG forum.
Side effects
- As with most source code modifications, these changes will likely be overwritten during your next TNG revision upgrade and will need to be re-implemented. (Using the Mod Manager greatly simplifies this process.
In the event of a problem
- Try using the Mod Manager Remove capability
- all should be well now
