== 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~~:

+

See the [[#Visualizations|Visualizations]] or

+

+

# 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~~.

+

#* Basic information includes (among other facts and events) Name, Sex, Birth, Death, Burial, Cause of Death, Alias, and Race.

# 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.

# 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.

+

#* The tree name is not displayed if there is only one tree.

# Under the control of a mod option, the personID for relatives (parents, spouses, children, siblings) can be displayed

−

# ~~All~~ personIDs ~~are styled "I"~~ is displayed ~~with an alternate~~ font~~, distinguishing~~ it from ~~from a~~ lower-case l ~~or a 1~~.

+

# The letter I in personIDs is displayed in a serif font to distinguish it from the digit 1 and the lower-case letter l.

−

# 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.

+

# The Event Map is enlarged a bit, as I've eliminated the mostly-blank shaded left-hand column, and tweaked the event list adjacent to the map. The entire map can also be hidden and re-displayed.

−

# 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.

+

# 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. (See also [[Regroup Person-Sources]])

# 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.

−

# 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.

+

# Under the control of a mod setting, the person's siblings can be displayed, and can be presented either with the Parent data or with the Person data.

−

# When siblings are displayed, half-siblings can be included, and are ~~marked as half-siblings~~.

+

# When siblings are displayed, half-siblings can be included, and are flagged with the ½ symbol.

# 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.

−

These options are defined and edited in the form at Admin>>Setup>>General Settings, in the new subform '''Mod Settings Blocks''' , where the options for various mods are organized into '''[https://tng.lythgoes.net/wiki/index.php?title=Mod_Settings_Blocks Mod Settings Blocks]'''.

+

# '''Show dates of last edit" - There's not much point in showing change dates if the data was loaded by a Gedcom Import, since they are all the same.

−

~~# '''Use smaller generic male and female thumbnails'''~~

+

# '''For Relatives,''' (that is, for parents, spouses, children, and siblings) display the Gender Icon and/or personID.

−

# '''Show dates of last edit" - There's not much point in showing change dates if the data was loaded by a Gedcom Import

−

# '''~~Show PersonIDs for~~ Relatives''' ~~- Parents~~, spouses, children, and siblings.

# Options about displaying siblings:

−

#* '''Where to Display Siblings''' - "Don't display them", "With personal data", or "With parent's data". #**

+

#* '''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").~~

+

#* '''Show half-siblings''', which works only when they are displayed with personal data.

−

~~# '''<span style="background-color:yellow">New</span> Show extended list of siblings''' - Show half-siblings;~~ that ~~is, all children of all of the profiled person's parents~~.

+

#* '''Number of siblings to show when the Person Profile loads''': "none", "all", or some specific number.

−

# ''~~'<span style="background-color:yellow;">New</span>~~ Where to put notes''' - Allows several possibilities, and ~~overrides~~ a ~~TNG system system~~

+

#** 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.

−

# '''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, [https://www.robinrichmond.com/family/mod_support.php please let me know].

+

#* These siblings options are similar to those provided by the [[Add Parents Children Row]] and [[Add Person Siblings Row]]. Those mods used to be compatible with Regroup Person Profile so that you select which way to handle siblings. But they are no long compatible, and there is a very good chance that I will remove this feature in favor those two mods.

−

~~#* This adjustment is done by Javascript, and only done within the Person Profile. It does not affect any other pages in any template.~~

+

# ''Where to put notes''' - Allows several possibilities, including (but not limited to) displaying personal notes very close to the the top of the Person Profile.

−

+

#* This option overrides the TNG configuration variable that provides more limited control of the placement of notes, and replaces that option in the configuration page with a note.

−

~~'''Some details about the display of siblings'''~~

+

# '''Adjust the styling of templates that use .art‐content‐layout:'''

−

* When they are shown with the parents' data (as the parents' "''children''"),

+

#* 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 I can't be sure that it works in ''all'' templates. if you encounter the half-screen display, just try this option. If it still doesn't work, [https://www.robinrichmond.com/family/mod_support.php please let me know].

−

** 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,

+

Also note that several options from earlier versions of Regroup Person Profile are not listed here. In most cases, the relevant features and their options have been spun off from Regroup Person Profile into new "Regroup Person*" mods. See some details in [#Related_Mods|Related Mods]] below.

−

* 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|Overlap]]~~ and ~~[[#Interdependencies|Interdependencies]] in the [[#Other_mods|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|~~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~~.

Many, many mods affect the Person Profile. These notes cannot cover them all. (~~There~~ are ~~also~~ a year or two out of date.)

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:

+

These mod implement features that are also implemented by Regroup Person Profile or a companion mod from the Regroup Person* family. In some cases, the two mods have installation or functional conflicts, and you must pick one or the other. In cases where the mods do work together, some Regroup Person* features can be disabled in favor of the other mod, but, in others the "compatible" features are redundant and you'll probably want to install just one of the two mods.

* [[Add Person Siblings Row]] adds the profiled person's siblings to the personal data block. Regroup Person Profile also ''optionally'' displays siblings, though in a different specific location and in a different format. Since Regroup Person Profile and [[Add Person Siblings Row]] ''are'' compatible, you can choose the format you prefer. Of course, if you do install [[Add Person Siblings Row]], then you'll probably want to use the options for Regroup Person Profile to disable its display of siblings.

* [[Add Parents Children Row]], like [[Add Person Siblings Row]], adds the profiled person siblings to the Person Profile, but does no in the parents' data block. Again, Regroup Person Profile also ''optionally'' displays siblings in the parents' data block, but does so in a different format. Regroup Person Profile and [[Add Parents Children Row]] ''are'' compatible, but if you install [[Add Parents Children Row]], then you'll probably want to disable Regroup Person Profile's display of siblings.
