Releases: gramps-project/gramps-web
v24.11.0
New features in this release
- The maximum number of images in the relationship chart (previously hard-coded to 50) can now be configured, so you can display large relationship charts with a large number of images! Implemented by @geostag in #524
Other improvements
- Translation updates - thanks to all the translators!
- Ignore index.html in service worker cache by @MrTrustor in #522
v24.10.0
AI Chat
This release adds a new "chat" view that gives access to an AI-powered chat assistant allowing to retrieve information about objects in the family tree database.
Please see the Gramps Web API v2.5.0 release notes as well as the documentation (set up chat, chat user guide) for technical details, limitations, how to set it up, and how to use it.
Other improvements
An issue was solved that caused problems with editing a note after pasting content containing HTML code (#490).
Lots of translations have been updated!
v24.8.0
v24.7.1
Compatibility with new search backend
The main change in this release is to add compatibility with the new search backend introduced in Gramps Web API v2.4. This is done in a backward compatible way, so the frontend will work with both Web API v2.4 and v2.3 for now.
The main differences from a user perspective are
- Slight changes to the search syntax – see the Web API release notes
- The search index needs to be rebuilt after upgrading Web API to the new version. A notification will be displayed to users with owner permissions. When this happens, please go to the administration settings and click "update search index". For any issues arising in this process, please open an issue in the Web API repository.
Other improvements
- The name of a repository can now be edited (#471)
- Translations have been updated
v24.7.0
Support for OpenHistoricalMap and map time slider
This release adds support for OpenHistoricalMap as a layer in Gramps Web!
OpenHistoricalMap is an open geographical database built on OpenStreetMap's technology, but adding a time dimension and thus mapping historical places throughout history.
With a new time slider at the bottom of the map view, the high-resolution vector map can be adjusted to a given year. The time slider also optionally filters all places, shown as pins on the map, depending on whether an event took place in that location around the selected year. The place filter is also available on the normal OpenStreetMap layer.
You can find the OpenHistoricalMap layer by opening the layer switcher in the bottom left of the map view.
Thanks to @1ec5 from the OpenHistoricalMap community for the idea & contribution!
Other improvements
- URLs are now automatically turned into clickable links in attribute values and the citation volume/page field #464
- A bug was fixed that made editing attributes of sources impossible
- Translations have been updated
v24.6.0
Just when you thought a month would pass without a Gramps Web release, version 24.6 is ready!
Improved name editor
The editor for a person's names has been significantly improved by @BlitzundBogen:
- Surnames can now be sorted
- Individual surnames and individual names can now be deleted
- The user interface has been made more intuitive and robust
Pictures in relationship graph
@geostag added support for pictures in the relationship graph!
Other improvements
- Translations have been updated
- A change in the Chrome browser necessitated a modified treatment of translation strings during development. As a positive side effect, frontend development is now also possible when using other browsers, e.g. Firefox. (@khashashin & @DavidMStraub)
v24.5.0
Advanced filters using Gramps Query Language
This release adds an optional advanced filter to the object list views (people, families, events, ...) based on the Gramps Query Language (GQL). For an explanation and examples, see the Gramps Web documentation.
Other improvments
v24.4.40
Browse tree edit history
This release introduces the Revision History view, which allows to browse all changes – additions, deletions, edits – of the tree, regardless who made them. For each edit transaction, you can see which user made the change, when they made it, and what exactly was changed.
This implements a long standing feature request and should make the collaborative editing experience much more pleasant and robust.
One of the next releases will even allow to selectively revert individual changes!
Other improvments
- Editing images was not possible when the library for face detection is not installed. Thanks @Zegeri for the fix
- Show page number in the citations view. Thanks @stdtom for the addition
- Translations have been updated. Thanks to the Gramps Weblate community
Note added
The non-standard tag v24.4.40 was created by accident. The next release will be v24.5.0.
v24.3.2
Relationship Graph
This release brings a great new feature: the Relationship Graph, implemented by @geostag!
Zoomable and scrollable like the ancestor, descendant, and hourglass charts, the relationship chart not only displays ancestors or descendants of a person, but all people related to the center person with a defined maximum degree of separation.
So you can finally browse an interactive chart showing your siblings, cousins, aunts, uncles & more all at the same time!
v24.3.1
Option to delete all objects
This release adds a new feature available to tree owners: they can now delete all objects in a tree, or optionally only objects of a specific type. It a requires a user to have logged in recently; otherwise, the password needs to be re-entered. This is to add an additional layer of security.
Other fixes
- An issue with the login form on MacOS has been fixed
- An incorrect gender colour for descendants in the hourglass chart has been fixed
