There is a new version of Family Tree PHP available for download: version 0.1.2. This version contains some bugs fixes and some minor improvements, mostly in the installation process. There is no need for exisiting users to update immediately, unless you encounter one of the fixed bugs or want to use one of the improvements.
Improvements:
- You can add extra user groups, which gives you even more control over which user can see which data.
- You can upload Gedcom files via the import form. This only works for smaller files. Big Gedcom files still have to be uploaded via FTP, or you have to split them into smaller files. For this last case, you now have the option to add data from a Gedcom to an existing tree, without deleting existing data in this tree.
- Extra security warnings on the admin page.
Bug fixes:
- On some servers non-English dates where not translated.
- Some users had to reload a page to see changes.
- Several minor bugs in the installation process.
How to update:
- Rename the file ‘.htaccess’ (the old one on your server!) to ‘old.htaccess’.
- Rename the file ‘includes/config.php’ (the old one on your server!) to ‘includes/config_old.php’.
- Upload all files of the new version to your server.
- Delete the new file ‘.htaccess’ and rename the old file ‘old.htaccess’ back to ‘.htaccess’.
- Delete the new file ‘includes/config.php’ and rename the old file ‘includes/config_old.php’ back to ‘includes/config.php’.
- Open in your browser the file ‘update.php’.
- Follow the instructions.
