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. Version 10.0.0.1 includes fixes to the Privacy logic provided by Martin Pannier.

Mod was updated for TNG V10.1 by Roger Moffat to handle change from mysql_ queries to tng_ queries in TNG 10.1.

Known Issues

For the maps to work you must have geo-coded locations in your tree!

Geo-coded locations must use decimals and NOT commas for values. Commas used in geocodes will result in javascript variable errors that prevent the maps from displaying

To see the list of issues fixed in TNG V9 [Expand] the link on the right. You can then click [Collapse] to hide the section.
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 with Mod Manager
  • Geo-coded locations
  • Latitude and longitude values must use decimals

Automated Installation Requirements

  1. Remove previously installed version
  2. Download the appropriate zip file from the Mod Summary in the upper right hand corner
  3. Unzip the downloaded zip file to your mods folder in TNG V8 and above
  4. Follow the normal automated installation for Mod Manager, as shown in the example Mod Manager - Installing Config Files to install the ancestors_map_.cfg
  5. 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!

Side effects

  1. 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.
