The third release in August makes it easier for users to register to an existing tree in multi-tree deployments. A sharable registration link is now displayed to tree owners on the administration settings page.

v23.8.1

Delete any object from the web interface

This second release in August brings a long awaited feature: you can now delete any object by clicking on the delete icon in the top app bar when in edit mode. After the deletion, a popup notification will be shown on the bottom of the app for five seconds, which allows undoing the deletion in case you're having second thoughts.

Additionally, a small issue affecting objects with Gramps ID containing spaces was fixed and translations have been updated. Thanks as always to the amazing Gramps Weblate community!

v0.22.2

A maintenance release which fixes the display of error messages for some operations like import.

v0.22.1

This maintenance release includes translation updates and a few minor fixes.

v0.22.0

This release brings four new features, which build on improvements in Gramp Web API v1.1:

Bulk import of media files

The import view has a new button to upload a ZIP archive of media files. This is meant for uploading files where the media object already exists, but the files are not yet present on the server. This happens e.g. when you import a Gramps XML file, which has the media objects but not the files. Note that you cannot create new media objects from the uploaded files.

More descriptive error messages

The error messages shown in the interface should be more informative now. Moreover, the progress icon for long-running processes like import, search reindex or report/export generation will now also show a descriptive error messages on hover in case it fails.

System information tab

The user settings has a new tab "system information" which shows the version numbers of all relevant components and some other debug relevant information. Copying & pasting this information in every new bug report is a good idea.

Show tree quotas

The admin settings now shows a widget with the currently used media file storage and number of people vs the tree's quotas for these to parameters (by default, there quota is infinity).

v0.21.1

This release fixes a regression breaking the first-run assistant in v0.21.0.

v0.21.0

This release brings several improvements that will make it easier to backup data or migrate it from one Gramps Web installation to a different one.

Several new features rely on the new v1.0 release of Gramps Web API.

New import/export features

• A new button in the admin settings to download/backup user account data
• A new button to create user accounts from such a download
• A new button in the "export" view that allows downloading all media files as a ZIP file
• A new "import" view that allows importing Gramps XML, Gedcom, or other genealogical data files anytime, not just at tree creation

Other new features

• A new first-run assistant similar to the existing one, but for setting up a new tree in a multi-tree setup, accessible at /firstrun/<tree_id> when no user exists for this tree yet

v0.20.2
