NOTE for version 14.0.0.1
This version is the result of looong tests done with a lot of users: Brett, Cees, Dan, Drew, Marc, Olivier, Kare, Katryne, Ken, Rob, Ron, Steve . Sorry if I forgot some of you. Thx for all your tests.
IMPORTANT : Installing this version will overwrite your extensions/chronology_vars.php file ! Think to make a backup of your data before installing !
Cees Kloostreman wrote a little Mod that allows you to display the full name of the current person in the chronology. It is available here
Purpose of the Mod
This mod displays an another events chronology than the TNG Timeline for the currentperson.
The list of events to be displayed can be limited to the events occured between birth and burial date (Mod Options)
The text color of parents, person's and children events can be modified (Mod Options)
The chronology page can be accessed via the new 'Chronology' Tab in the menu.
Chronology uses the data elaborated by getperson.php, plus some missing data. so, it is very fast.
