What's new with BirthWrite
This section will contain the update list from the last two releases.

Release 2.6 - Jan 27, 2002


  • Web Page directory size.

    • the number of individual web page files per directory is now 1000. If more files are generated than that, extra directories are used. The individual ID's are used to decide when to generate a new directory. So individual 1001 will be placed in a different directory then 1000. This number can be changed in the registry AFTER you have published at least one tree.

      This change requires you to:


      • change your tree and detail web page templates to include a ".." in front of the hard coded link to the index page.
      • regenerate your web pages. Sorry about that.

    • clicking on a name in the descendent tree view will cause a tree to be displayed.
    • you can still expand or collapse the tree by clicking on the + or - box in the tree.

  • Bug Fixes:

    • some printer setting were ignored unless they were part of the default printer settings.

Release 2.5.1 - Apr 17, 2001

  • Bug Fixes:

    • Minimizing the descendent tree caused a program failure.
    • Export of Note type information (source, notes, etc) that contains more than 80 blank characters in a row would cause a program failure.
    • GEDCOM import of a marriage start or end source information would cause a program failure.
    • changed text naming common relationship point from refering to the individual as an "ancestor" to "relation" as it's more correct.
      Problems arise when an individual has a cousin and a spouse. The relationship between the cousin and the spouse would name the individual as the common *ancestor* which is not true. Common *relation* works better.
    • gedcom import of a record with a blank object caption caused a program failure.
    • gedcom export of a date (birth, death, marriage) that is unknown may export a record without a confirming "Y" following the tag.
