Ambox notice.png The latest version of this mod uses the guidelines for TNG v12+ cust_text.php files. If you are using TNGv12+, and any cust_text.php file in this mod is marked with a Bad Target error, you need to update your cust_text.php files before you can install this mod. [Show instructions]

If you upgraded to TNGv12+, and did not update your cust_text.php files as instructed in the upgrade readme script, then you must use the TNG Mod Manager to update them. To do so:

  1. Go to Mod Manager, and select its "Recommended Updates" tab.
    (If the "Recommended Updates" tab is not visible, then go to the Mod Manager Options tab, select "Display Settings", and turn on the "Recommended Updates" tab.)
  2. Click the "Update" button in the "Recommended Updates" tab.
    Installed mods do not interfere with the update, and if you already have (or think you may have) run this update, it will not hurt for you to run it again.

Notes


Purpose of the Mod

Controls the amount of Source and Citation Details displayed in the Sources section of the Person Profile. It starts with just a list of source names. Buttons let you show all of the citation details and/or all of the source details. One-letter hyperlinks let you see or hide details for one source or one citation.

Mod Parameters

There is one mod parameter: $authorModParam. Its update screen reads like this:

If you're getting your data via Gedcom from Ancestry.com's Family Tree Maker (FTM), a LOT of your source authors are inaccurately set to "Ancestry.com". This parameter tell the program how to deal with those Ancestry.com authors. Enter:

  1. To treat "Ancestry.com" like other authors; i.e. always display it,
  2. To treat it as a source detail; i.e. initially hidden,
  3. To ignore it. (The default)

Other Mods

Regroup Person family

These related mods all affect the Person Profile.

  1. [[Regroup Person Profile] - Rearranges personal events, creates headings between blocks of data, several other tweaks.
  2. Regroup Person-Date Place - Combines event date, place, and description into one table cell
  3. Regroup Person-Move Media - Moves the media files above the map
  4. Regroup Person-No Living Data - Suppresses display of ANY data about a living or private person the user doesn't have rights to. By default, TNG will show some data, plus spouses, parents, and children.
  5. Regroup Person-Parent Rel - Hides "natural" or "birth" relationships between the person and the parents.
  6. Regroup Person-Sources (this mod)- Starts the display of source citations with just the Source ID, Title, and Author, and provides buttons so the user can display Source details and/or Citation details, for individual source citations and for all source citations..

Visualizations

BEFORE:

Regroup Person Profile has removed the left-hand column that holds the label "Sources", and has put "Citation Sources" in a heading above the block.

Regroup person-source-before.png
AFTER:
Regroup person-source-after.png

It is pure coincidence that the number of sources in this record fills the box without scrolling.

When you first click on the TNG Print button, the Sources box show just the Source ID, Title, and Author. But the pretty-print sources box is not constrained; it shows all of the information you select.
