In reply to: [WP Family Tree] Cannot Add Mother, Father, SpouseIf the mother, father and spouse drop-downs are empty then, for some reason, the plugin is struggling to identify the Family category.
Try to view the Categories page (under the Posts menu) and see what the “Slug” is for the family category.
If it is anything other than “family” then set it back to “family” and see if that solves the problem.
If not, perhaps you can send a link to your site so I can have a look..

In reply to: [WP Family Tree] Only Mother's lineage showing upI am not really sure I understand what the question is… 🙂
Siblings are automatically determined as the children of your parents.. so there is no need to specify those.
Also have a look in the settings panel for the plugin to see if the correct spouse settings are set.
Please of you explain what you are expecting to see on one of your pages then I will be able to try to understand it..

In reply to: [WP Family Tree] Very Good and Could be FantasticThanks for the comments! It is great to see you can make good use of the plugin.
There is a version of the plugin (only available from the plugin website) that will show the family tree in a new window as a “full-screen” tree.
This could potentially be used for rendering PDFs.. I would recommend using WKHTMLTOPDF for this and can offer help if needed.

In reply to: [WP Family Tree] Only Mother's lineage showing upDid you specify the “root” parameter for the tree?
The tree you will see shows the blood line down from a common ancestor (the root). Then you can select an option to include family members spouses etc..
It might be that you also need to specify the spouse parameter for some people to get them to show in the tree if they do not have any children.

In reply to: [WP Family Tree] Organisational StructureThis sounds like a good idea and I’d be happy to make this customisation if you want.
Please contact me through the plugin website to discuss it.

In reply to: [WP Family Tree] Is there a volume limit?Wow..! Sounds very interesting and quite challenging.. 🙂

In reply to: [WP Family Tree] Is there a volume limit?There isn’t any limitation as such in terms of storage.. In terms of performance I would imagine that 1200 members should be fine although I’d need to test it to say for certain.
What format are you storing the family data in? Is it gedcom or something else?
Depending on where you are with your website you might be able to one of the first to try the new plugin..

In reply to: [WP Family Tree] 3.6 Compatibility?No it doesn’t need to be three digits.
I am not sure what to suggest… perhaps if you send me a link to your site.
If you want me to look at the admin side then send the details through the contact form on the family tree plugin website, then I can have a look.
I was just using the default WordPress theme.

In reply to: [WP Family Tree] Is there a volume limit?Thanks Rochelle for contacting me via the plugin website – and thanks for your patience while I have been snowed under with other work.
I am happy to say that based on your request I have now rewritten the plugin so that it will perform better for larger trees. I’ll hope to publish an update shortly.
In the first instance I am looking at replicating the same/similar functionality but within a different framework and database. Hopefully that should resolve your immediate issues..

In reply to: [WP Family Tree] Gedcom file downloadThanks!
There will be a new version of this plugin soon that will improve performance and be the first step towards implementing Gedcom import support.
I’ll definitely consider export as well – that will probably be easier to do actually as I’d only need to support one flavour of Gedcom… 🙂

In reply to: [WP Family Tree] Doesn't display full family treeSorry for a slow response to this thread.. Is this still a problem?
Did you specify the “root” parameter?
[family-tree root=xxx] where xxx is the post id of the person you want to put at the top of the tree.

In reply to: [WP Family Tree] 3.6 Compatibility?Thanks for the feedback…!
I have just installed and tested the plugin on WordPress 3.6 and it seems to work fine.
If individuals don’t show up in the tree then often it has something to do with how “root” is (or isn’t) specified.
The shortcode you want to use is: [family-tree root=xxx]
Where xxx is the post id of the individual to show at the top of the tree..
It is the “slug” of the category that needs to be the same.
