Regroup Person Profile
Summary Reorganizes the Person Profile page - for instance, moving 'less important' personal events below the Parent and Family data blocks, putting headings above the Person Profile's data blocks, moving metadata to headings, allow the Map to be hidden, and removing the mostly-empty label column from the Map and Sources blocks.

Notes
For the moment, Version 13.0.0.19g of this mod always places the media section of the Person Profile above the map, even if Regroup Person-Move Media has not been installed.


Purpose of the Mod

To rearrange the data in the person profile in a way that I find more readable, with less scrolling.

Here's a partial list of changes:

  1. The most basic Person information is listed first, then parents, marriages, and only then, "Other Personal Data".
    • Basic information includes Name, Birth, Death, Burial, Cause of Death (_DCAUSE), Alias (ALIA) and Race, and (I think) LDS ordinances.
  2. Subheadings have been added above what I call "event blocks" - the blocks of data for personal data, parents, marriages, the event map, source citations, etc.
  3. Metadata elements (primary personID, familyIDs, treename, branches, edit date, links to edit pages) are no longer presented as if they were events. Some metadata elements have been moved to the person's heading, and others are placed immediately above the relevant event blocks.
    • The treename is not displayed if there is only one tree.
  4. Under the control of a mod option, the personID for relatives (parents, spouses, children, siblings) can be displayed
  5. All personIDs are styled "I" is displayed with an alternate font, distinguishing it from from a lower-case l or a 1.
  6. The Event Map is enlarged a bit, as I've eliminated the mostly-blank shaded left-hand column, and tweaked the even list adjacent to the map. The entire map can also be hidden and re-displayed.
  7. The Source Citations box is also enlarged with the elimination of the mostly-blank left-hand column. New bolding of the Source titles improve readability a bit.
  8. In the Format for Printing page, the cell height for the Source Citations is ignored, under the assumption that, when you print the page, you want to see all of the sources.
  9. Under the control of a mod setting, the person's siblings are displayed, and can be presented either with the Parent data or with the Person data.
  10. When siblings are displayed, half-siblings can be included, and are marked as half-siblings.
  11. A mod option allows the Person Notes to be displayed in places not covered by the related TNG system option, for example, up near the top of the page in the "Personal Information" data block.

See also the subheading Related Mods, some notes under Incompatible Mods, the Visualizations, and additional comments in the .cfg file itself.

Mod Options

Mod version 19+     See a Visualization      [Show details]

[Hide the options]

These options are defined and edited in the form at Admin>>Setup>>General Settings, in the new subform Mod Settings Blocks (in TNGv13) or Robin's Mods (in TNGv12), where the options for various mods are organized into Mod Settings Blocks.

  1. Use smaller generic male and female thumbnails
  2. Show dates of last edit" - There's not much point in showing change dates if the data was loaded by a Gedcom Import
  3. Show PersonIDs for Relatives - Parents, spouses, children, and siblings.
  4. Options about displaying siblings:
    • Where to Display Siblings - "Don't display them", "With personal data", or "With parent's data". #**
    • Number of siblings to show when the Person Profile loads - Since users aren't always interested in siblings, and a list of eight or ten or fifteen siblings can take up a lot of space, you can set this option to display only a few siblings to start. A hyperlink that says "{n} more" will expose the remaining siblings. The option value "0" means "always show them all". (There is not a way to say "don't show any when the page loads but click on a link to show them all").
  5. New Show extended list of siblings - Show half-siblings; that is, all children of all of the profiled person's parents.
  6. New Where to put notes - Allows several possibilities, and overrides a TNG system system
  7. Adjust the styling of templates that use .art‐content‐layout: - This option is driven by a styling conflict between Regroup Person Profile and certain TNG Templates. The styling problem manifests itself by using only half of the screen width to display the Person Profile. I may have fixed this conflict, but still, if you encounter the half-screen display, just to select this option. If it still doesn't work, please let me know.
    • This adjustment is done by Javascript, and only done within the Person Profile. It does not affect any other pages in any template.

Some details about the display of siblings

  • When they are shown with the parents' data (as the parents' "children"),
    • The profiled person is listed but not hyperlinked, and
    • If the person has more than one set of parents, each couple's children are listed.
  • When shown with the person's personal data (as "siblings"),
    • The profiled person is not displayed at all, and
    • If the "Show extended list of siblings" is selected, that list includes half-siblings. That is, the list includes all children of all of the person's parents' marriages. The extended list of children is grouped by the parents of a set of children.

Also,

  • You may have noticed that some of these options enable features that are also implemented by other mods. Those features are included in Regroup Person Profile only when the other mods are incompatible with Regroup Person Profile. See Overlap and Interdependencies in the Other mods section of this aticle]]
  • Several options from mod version 18 that affected the display of event dates and places, and the name/birth/death/age data for relatives have been moved to Regroup Person-Date Place v19. If you want to use both this mod and Regroup Person-Date Place, you must use version 19* of both.
[Hide the options for mod v19]

Mod version 18*      [Show details]

(Note that some of these options have been moved to the Regroup Person-Date Place mod in version 19 of both mods.)

These options are defined and edited in the form at Admin>>Setup>>General Settings, in the new subform Robin's Mods, where the options for various mods are organized into Mod Settings Blocks.

  1. Spacing - Controls whether the Name/Birth/Death/Age data for relatives (parents, spouses, children, and siblings) is on one (possibly wrapped) line, or separated onto three lines. See Visualization 7
    • Less - Just like the native Person Profile. The data for each relative is strung together in one line that can wrap to a new line.
    • More - Similar to some other mods, the Name/Birth/Death/Age data is separated into three lines, each of which could wrap, but probably won't.
  2. Spacing Control - Whether there will be a spacing control at the right end of the Inner Menu that can switch between the two spacing levels above. See Visualization 3, item 4.
  3. Age Format - 'Original': (75 years), or 'New': (Age 75) or (Living, Age 75)
  4. Relatives IDs - Whether to show the PersonID of relatives; e.g. parents, spouses, children, and siblings. See Visualization 3, item 7.
  5. Siblings - Whether and where to display the person's siblings. There are three possible values, representing "Don't show siblings", "Put them in the parents' data block", and "Put them in the persons primary data block". See Visualization 6.
  6. Siblings at Start - Not all of the siblings are necessarily displayed as the page loads. This option controls the number of siblings to be initially displayed. All other siblings are hidden behind a hyperlink. The option value "0" means "always show them all".
  7. Adjust the styling of templates... - For the modified Person Profile to look right in certain TNG templates, this option must be selected. My recommendation is to check this option's checkbox if your modified Person Profile takes up only half of your screen width. If it still doesn't work, please let me know.
    • This 'adjustment' is done by Javascript, and only done within the Person Profile. It does not affect any other pages in any template.

Note that the "Spacing" and "Spacing Control" options coordinate with identically named options in Regroup Person-Date Place so that both options are the same in both mods, and only one spacing control is created on the Inner Menu. If you want to use version 18 of either this mod or Regroup Person-Date Place, and you want to use both mods, you must install a v18 version of both mods.

[Hide the options for mod version 18*]

Before version 18, this mod has two classic Mod Parameters     [Show details]

  1. A value that controls whitespace within the HTML data tables by adjusting HTML cellpadding attribute. The TNG default is cellpadding=4. This mod's default is cellpadding=2, but the padding of 4px can be restored (or increased) with this parameter.
  2. A flag that determines whether to display person ID's for each parent, spouse, and child.

Other Mods

Many, many mods affect the Person Profile. These notes cannot cover them all.

Related Mods

  1. The Mod Settings Blocks mod packages this mod's options into what I call a "Mod Settings Block", which is a set of form fields that formatted and labeled so that it stands out among other options in an Admin>>Setting form. Mod Settings Blocks is a prerequisite for this mod; it must be installed before this mod can be installed.
  2. An Inner Mod Menu, which provides handy links from TNG pages directly to mod documentation and a mod's Mods Settings Block. (Inner Mod Menus are visible only to TNG Admins; never to end users.)
  3. The Mods Used feature, which captures a list of mods that affected the code used to display a TNG page. (This is analogous to the Mod Manager Analyzer feature that reports which mods affect a given TNG file, but that applies at run-time.

This mod is compatible with, and part of, My "Regroup Person" family of mods.    [Show the family members]

[Hide details]

My "Regroup Person" family of mods all affect the Person Profile. All of them can be used independently of Regroup Person Profile, which was the the first and is the most complex member of the family.(I'll add that the reputation of the family has been stained by the fact that Regroup Person Profile is distinctly complex and is incompatible with an awkward number of other Person Profile mods. But, in truth, Regroup Person Profile and Regroup Person-Date Place is are the family members that are particularly complex or invasive.)

  1. Regroup Person Profile - Rearranges the data in and spacing and formatting of the Person Profile. Also (optionally) adds siblings.
  2. Regroup Person-Branch Members - Turns each of the profiled person's branch names into a hyperlink that pops up a list of branch members. Options control whether anonymous visitors and/or logged-in users are allowed to see branch details.
  3. Regroup Person-Child2Parent - Hides the display of selected relationships (typically "birth", which would be assumed if it were not displayed) between the profiled person and that person's parents and children.
  4. Regroup Person-Date Place - Adjusts the spacing used to display (1) Event dates, places, and values and/or (2) The name/birth/death/age data for the profiled person's relatives.
  5. Regroup Person-Family Indicators - Based on Jeff Robison's Family Indicators Mod, this mod adds flags (i.e. "indicators") next to the names of the profiled person's relatives. The flags provide information about and links to several aspects of those relatives' relatives, including popup profiles and ancestor or descendant charts.
  6. Regroup Person-Gender Before Birth - Simply moves the Gender "event" so that it appears above the Birth event. (As you would expect, this mod is incompatible with Regroup Person-Remove Gender)
  7. Regroup Person-Hide Branches - Hides branch names from anonymous visitors and/or logged-in users who are not assigned to the branch.
  8. Regroup Person-Move Media - Simply moves the media files above the event map.
  9. Regroup Person-No Living Data - Suppresses display of ANY data about a living or private person the user doesn't have rights to see. By default, TNG will show some data, plus spouses, parents, and children.
  10. Regroup Person-Remove Gender - Removes the Gender event (the sex) from the event tables, leaving the gender icon next to the name as the sole representation of the person's gender. (As you would expect, this mod is incompatible with Regroup Person-Gender Before Birth)
  11. Regroup Person-Sources - Allows some source and citation data to be hidden for brevity, and to be displayed as desired.

These mods conflict with Regroup Person Profile, but Regroup Person Profile, or a companion mod, implements at least a good part of the functionality of these mods:

Interdependencies

Installation

Files Installed

This mod includes a typical mod subfolder, with the same base name as the mod's .cfg file. The subfolder is atypical in that no files in it are installed to working TNG folders. However, it does contain critical files that contain the mod's language strings, which the mod does not add to standard cust_text.php files. Instead, the PHP code modified by this mod loads the language strings from files in the mod's languages/ subfolder. Read more about this technique.


[Show Standard Installation Process]

Requirements

  • A working TNG installation.
  • An installed current version of the Mod Manager.
  • You should backup files listed in the panel on the right.

Procedure

  1. Remove and delete previous version of this mod.
  2. Backup the files updated by this mod. They are listed in the panel at the upper right.
  3. Download the .zip file, Extract its .cfg file to the mods folder.
  4. Follow the normal automated installation for Mod Manager, as shown in the example Mod Manager - Installing Config Files.

Visualizations

1. BEFORE AND AFTER OVERVIEW

Click on the image below to see larger side-by-side non-annotated before and after images. Note that the media files have been clipped out because they haven't changed. But the personal and family data is now laid out differently, the Event Map is now slightly wider, and the Sources, by default, show only the titles, not the full citation information. (Note that Some of the changes shown in the visualizations are now implemented by other mods that were extracted from earlier versions of Regroup Person Profile). In particular, Regroup Person-Date Place now combines the date, place, and description for an event into one cell in the display table.)

Regroup person profile-both.png
2. BEFORE: The personal data section of the original version of the Personal Profile.

The red comments describe some of the changes that the mod will make.

Regroup person profile-before1.png

3. AFTER: The personal AND family data in the new format
  1. Personal meta-data has been moved to the heading.
  2. The "Mod Information" menu, which is visible only to admins, provides links to this Wiki article, and provides a link directly to the mod options.
    • By "directly to", I mean that the link opens this mod's "Mod Settings Block", without the need to select a subform at "Admin>>Setup>>General Settings", nor to scroll down to this mod's options. (See The Mod Settings Block Screenshot.
  3. Events that describe the profiled person are divided into two data blocks. Basic name, birth, death, and burial information are in the first data block (like the native Person Profile), but all other personal events are displayed in a second block, labeled "Other Personal Events" below the person's parents and families.
  4. The white space between blocks of data is now occupied by headings and metadata.
  5. A mod option determnines whether the personID of each relative(spouses, parents, children, siblings) is shown.
  6. The words "Wife" and "Husband" replace "Family" in the table row for the spouse/partner name.
    • I now realize that labels other than "Wife" and "Husband" should be used if the parents are not married. In a future version, I hope to implement labels that reflect the nature of the relationship, though I need suggestions about what terms to use.
  7. The indentation of the children's name/birth/death/age data has been improved. The data now wraps like HTML list items; that is, it does not wrap below the number at the beginning of the line.
Regroup person profile-after19.jpg
4. AFTER: The Event Map

The map is wider than before because the mod has eliminated the colored left-hand column, and put the Event Map label in the whitespace above the map. It has also modified the layout of the first pin legend so it wastes less space, and so that it wraps more cleanly when the page is narrow enough to require wrapping. Also note the button outlined in red at the top right, which changes to "Show Event Map" when the Event Map is hidden.

Regroup person profile-after-map.png
5. AFTER: The Source Citations block

Like the Event Map, the Sources block no longer uses the colored left-hand column, and its label (now "Source Citations") is in the whitespace above the sources. The Regroup Person-Sources mod adds substantial functionality to the Source Citations block. It loads the page with just the Source name, and provides links and buttons that add and remove Source and Citation details.

Regroup person-after-sources.png

6. AFTER: Siblings
  1. A mod option controls whether siblings are displayed in the Parents' data block, in the basic personal data block (as shown here), or not displayed at all.
  2. Another mod option controls how many siblings are shown as the page is loaded If not all siblings are initially displayed, the program displays a "more" link that expands the list to include all siblings.
  3. The the name of the person being profiled is not a hyperlink, since we are already on that person's profile.
Regroup person profile-siblings.png

7. AFTER: The Regroup Person Profile "Mod Settings Block"

A Mod Settings Block is an outlined subform within an Admin>>Setup program that contains the options for a single mod. What is most notable about a Mod Settings Block is that a hyperlink directly to a Mod Settings Block displays only that block (i.e. only one mod's options), not all of the other options in the form or subform.

Here, you see the this mod's Mod Settings Block, in admin_genconfig.php, at Admin>>Setup>>General Settings. The triangular arrow next to the subfolder heading Mod Settings Blocks is pointing to the right, meaning that the subform is not open, and that your site's other mod settings blocks are not visible. If you were to open the subform by clicking on the heading, you would see the mod settings blocks for other mods that you have installed.


File:Regroup person profile-after-modsettingsblock19.jpg

Language Strings

This mod stores its language strings (for all languages) in the languages folder within the mods subfolder, in files named {language}_custtext.php (e.g English_custtest.php, French_UTF8-custtext.php). There is typically no need for separate file for English-UTF8.

This technique for storing custom text files has several advantages, including that translators can create, test, and edit language files without having to uninstall and reinstall the mod.

Specifying site-specific overrides to language strings is not as straightforward as it is with conventional cust_text.php files. Read about the problem and the solution.

White Space

Aside: Vertical whitespace can produce a feeling of "openness" in web pages and other media. But sometimes it unnecessarily reduces the amount of data that can be seen at once, and increases the need for users to do vertical scrolling. So I've been known to push back on whitespace a bit - especially when whitespace is generated by <br> tags rather than style rules. To that end:

  1. This mod uses styles to decrease the whitespace between the HTML tables that define various sections of the Person Profile (basic personal data, parents, families, the event map, media items, etc.). This mod provides 1ex of whitespace in the bottom margin of each table. You can increase that whitespace with a style rule such as .datatable {margin-bottom:1em;} at the bottom of your genstyle.css or in your template's mytngstyle.css.
  2. This mod removes a hard break from the end of the TNG "innermenu". Whitespace below the innermenu can be restored by a style rule such as .pub-innermenu {margin-bottom:1em;} at the bottom of your genstyle.css or your template's mytngstyle.css.
    • The "innermenu" is a horizontal menu on most TNG pages that appears immediately below the "Tab menu". It usually has white text on a dark background, and its links are almost always separated by vertical bars. In the Person Profile, the innermenu looks something like this:
      Personal Information  |  Media  |  Notes  |  Source Citations  |  Event Map  |  All  |  PDF  
    • This change affects not just the Person Profile, but most TNG page headings. However, the .pub-innermenu style rule shown above will restore whitespace to all affected pages.

Formatting Person and Family IDs

In order to distinguish the leading "I" of a person ID from a "1" or a lower-case "l", this mod displays PersonIDs and FamilyIDs with style classes that change the font of the ID's.

"Source Citations"

This mod relabels the "Sources" section of the Person Profile as "Source Citations". The distinction is not important, especially to end users, but it does have meaning, and I think that translators - and maybe some others - might benefit from an explanation..

At least in English, the terms "Sources", "Citations", or "Source Citations" are completely ambiguous, and could each reasonably serve as a heading. But the items listed in this section of the report do not accurately represent what TNG calls "Sources" or "Citations"

  • They are not TNG "Sources" in that they contain citation details. They also are not unique. Two entries in the list can have different citation details from the same source.
  • So really, they are more like citations, and "Citations" would be a perfectly reasonable heading.
  • But they are not really TNG "Citations" in that TNG citation records can point to only one event. They can be thought of as (for lack of a better term) "generic citations" or "unique citations". After all, in many genealogy applications, citations can link to many events (even to events in multiple person and family records). In those applications, the heading "Citations" would be completely consistent with the way that the items in the list are stored in the database.

In any case, it turned out to be so trivial to change the heading that I just did it.

Event Labels as Nouns or Verbs

In "most?" genealogy applications, most event labels are nouns, e.g. BIRT->Birth, CHR=Christening, DEAT->Death, BURI->Burial, MARR=>Marriage, DIV=>Divorce, OCCU->Occupation, RESI->Residence, IMMI->Immigration, GRAD->Graduation, EDUC->Education,RELI->Religion.

In TNG Person Profile, however,

  • The labels for "custom" events (those stored in the Events table) are all defined in the Eventtypes tables, which is edited at Admin>>Eventtypes. When you add a new Eventtype, you can specify an arbitrary tag and label (a "description"), or select from about 45 hard-coded tags, which are each paired with a label. Most of those labels, like the ones listed above, are in noun form. Once entered into the Eventtypes table, an Eventtype's label can be changed.
  • The labels for "Built-in" events (those stored in the People, Families, and Children tables rather than in the Events table) have hard-coded labels, which are
    • Displayed in the People and Families edit page as nouns, e.g. BIRT->Birth, CHR=Christening, DEAT->Death, BURI->Burial, MARR=>Marriage, DIV=>Divorce, and
    • Displayed in the Person Profile, the Places detail page, and the Register report in verb forms, e.g. BIRT->Born, CHR=Christened, DEAT->Died, BURI->Buried, MARR=>Married, DIV=>Divorced.
    • The verb forms are handy for generating sentences in the Register Report (e.g. "Moses Wheeler was born on 5 Jan 1598 in Bow, Middlesex, England; died on 15 Jan 1698 in Stratford, Fairfield County, Connecticut, USA; was buried in Old Congregational Burying Ground, Stratford, Fairfield County, Connecticut, USA.") but are distinctly inconsistent with the other events and with the typical noun forms.

Mod Version TNG Version Date Note
12.0.0.19 12.0 - 12.3 15Aug2020 Most of the changes involve coordination with other Regroup Person* mods   [Show details]
[Hide details]
  1. Fixed a typo that was preventing sibling's popup profiles from popping up.
  2. Moved changes to the format of relatives' name/birth/death/age info to Regroup Person-Date Place, which was already handling event date/place spacing. This also removed the spacing button from this mod and the relatively complex coordination between the two mods over the spacing button.
  3. Moved changes to the Age format to Regroup Person-Date Place since the age format is part of relatives' name/birth/death/age info.
  4. This mod still has to coordinate with Regroup Person-Date Place in that the formatting of siblings' name/birth/death/age strings is different if Regroup Person-Date Place is installed.
  5. Both this mod and Regroup Person-Date Place have been identified as v19, since the changes in the functionality of and coordination between the two mods means that if both are installed, they both must use v19 or above.
  6. Under control of a new option, the mod now can move person notes up into the main personal data block.
  7. Another new mod option determines whether record change dates are displayed. (There isn't much point in displaying change dates if a Gedcom Import has specified the same change date for every record, whether it was changed or not.)
  8. Coordinates with Regroup Person-Family Indicators to make sure that the Regroup Person-Family Indicators icon is used for siblings.
  9. See the .cfg file Revision History for other details.
