Notes


Purpose of the Mod

To improve the usability and accessibility of the All Burials table in the Cemeteries and Headstones Report.

  • Changes to the All Burials table printed by showmap.php
    • The following columns are added:
      1. Birth date and place
      2. Death date and place, and
      3. Spouses - The Spouses column is added because women's maiden names are often omitted from headstones and cemetery lists.
    • The burial date column is not displayed if it contains no data.
    • The PersonID and Burial place columns are removed, and the Burial Place is, instead, shown just above the All Burials table.
  • Changes to the list of Cemeteries displayed by headstones.php
    • Each cemetery name is followed by the number of burials at that cemetery (for the selected tree).

Dependencies

This mod is dependent on Show Mod Names v2+. You don't need Show Mod Names to install it, but you'll get a run-time error if Show Mod Names v2+ has not been installed.

Conflicts

Conflicts with Showmap Burials, which does some, but not quite all, of the same things.

Visualization of this Mod

All Burials Table in showmap.php - BEFORE - The unmodified All Burials table, highlighting the two columns that the mod always removes.

Note also that the cemetery name is - by definition - the same for all records.

Burials-before.png
All Burials Table - AFTER - Here's the report as modified, with three new columns. Note that the burial place name is no longer shown in the report. Instead, it is in the heading above the table.

Also note that the Burial and Tree columns is absent from this particular report. The burial place is always omitted, since all burials in the table are the same. The burial name is omitted in this case because it contained no data. And the tree column is now suppressed if the user has selected a specific tree, or if the database contains only one tree.

A "private" person and a "living" person are shown in the report, just to illustrate that the report at least tries to enforce those privacy considerations.

Cemetery List in headstones.php - BEFORE

Cemetery List - AFTER - Note the number of burials after each cemetery name. This is not to be confused with the number of headstone photos.
