Introduction

TNG version: 8.0

This mod provides a backup and restore of the Private flags that can be set in the tng_peoples table starting with TNG V8.

It is designed to be used as a backup before doing an import gedcom and then used to restore the manually set private flags that were dropped during the import process.

In TNG V9, the French custom text files can now be downloaded as separate add-ons.

Developer

This mod was developed by Ken Roy using a scan and replace on Ben Wagner's Backup / Restore Living Flag

Custom Text Additions

Note that config file only includes the English language changes, so if you support multiple languages you will need to modify the config file to add the custom text for those other languages.


English

The following custom text will be added to your English/cust_text.php and English-UTF8/cust_text.php files by this mod. If you are using other languages, you must add these lines to each of your language cust_text.php files with appropriate translations of course.


// Backup / Restore Private Flags Mod
$admtext['backupprivate'] = "Backup Private";
$admtext['backupprivateitems'] = "Backup/Restore Private Flags";
$admtext['privatebkuprestoraction'] = "To back up or restore the Private table, click on the appropriate action icon.";
$admtext['privateinbackup'] = "Private in Backup File";
$admtext['privateindatabase'] = "Private in DataBase";
$admtext['privateconfirm'] = "Are you sure you wish to WRITE the current list of Private to disk?";
$admtext['privatereturn'] = "Return to Main Menu";
$admtext['privaterestore'] = "Restore checked to Private";
$admtext['privatebackupinfo'] = "Information in Backup File";
$admtext['privatedatabaseinfo'] = "Information in Database";
$admtext['privatechanged'] = "Changed";
$admtext['privatenochange'] = "Most Liklely No Change of Information";
$admtext['privatenochangeneeded'] = "Already Marked Private, No Need to Change";
$admtext['privatecomparing'] = "Examining and comparing backup to current database. Please double check before updating.";
$admtext['privatecorrupt'] = "or file is corrupt.";
$admtext['privatenotfound'] = "Not found in database";

For example, you would add to the French/cust_text.php


// Backup / Restore Private Flags Mod
$admtext['backupprivate'] = "Sauvegarder privé";
$admtext['backupprivateitems'] = "Sauvegarder/restaurer les étiquettes privées";
$admtext['privatebkuprestoraction'] = "Pour sauvegarder ou restaurer les étiquettes privées, cliquez sur l'icône d'action appropriée.";
$admtext['privateinbackup'] = "Privé dans le dossier";
$admtext['privateindatabase'] = "Privé dans la base de données";
$admtext['privateconfirm'] = "Êtes-vous sûr de vouloir écrire la liste courante des privées au disque ?";
$admtext['privatereturn'] = "Revenez au menu principal";
$admtext['privaterestore'] = "Restaurer les étiquettes privées";
$admtext['privatebackupinfo'] = "L'information dans le dossier de sauvegarde";
$admtext['privatedatabaseinfo'] = "L'information dans la base de données";
$admtext['privatechanged'] = "Changé";
$admtext['privatenochange'] = "Il y a probable aucun changement d'information";
$admtext['privatenochangeneeded'] = "Déjà marquée privé, aucun besoin de changer";
$admtext['privatecomparing'] = "Examinant et comparant le dossier de sauvegarde courant à la base de donnée . Vérifiez une deuxième fois svp avant la mise à jour.";
$admtext['privatecorrupt'] = "ou le dossier est corrompu.";
$admtext['privatenotfound'] = "Pas trouvé dans la base de données";

Note that for TNG V8 and above and after, the $text variables are within single-quotes, and the English/cust_text.php changes were provided for both the languages/English/cust_text.php and languages/English-UTF8/cust_text.php files.
