I have a website that is driven by phpGedView, but am really tired of the very unfriendly look it provides. I would like to do something on the lines of what you have done integrating phpGedView into Wordpress. I've not used Wordpress yet, but before I install it on my server and probably trash my site, I would like some pointers. WPPGV hasn't been updated in over a year and I find no real advise offered. Any comments or suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Mark Hello Paul,

I haven't fiddled with the PhpGedView theme yet, but I know I have to to fix the items you identified. I am currently working on award fee briefing, so I may not get to it until tomorrow night. I saw the links and references to the wordpress plugin, but noted that the link was no longer valid. I also noted that it was the guy you were working with. A plug-in would be nice, but I am happy with it as a standalone product as well. Legacy 6 Family Tree seems to be a a very good program. I read some reviews and it was rated as "one of the best". I think the product you use is also highly rated. I haven't subscribed to any online sources yet, but I probably will eventually. Ancestry.com is one of many sources that are integrated into the research section of the Legacy 6 product. Thanks, Paaul Steve, thanks for the comments!

He started it, I began testing it and correting some bugs for it. As of a couple of weeks ago, his website disappeared, so not sure where we stand I am not familiar with the offline software you chose. The phpgedview is full featured in that you can work completely online if you want. The one feature that I found it to be lacking though was a merge feature. You will find world family tree gedcoms that have some folks you want to add. phpgedview cant do that. That finally drove me to working offline. I use Family Tree Maker 16. If you are going to use any online resource site, I would recommend http://www.ancestry.com above the others. I currrently subscribe and use them quite extensively especially for adding source material. Nice Job! Mr Papa Man, guess I am a bad influence on ya :wink: your wife is gonna hate me at the least :lol:

A couple of comments:

1) the home link on the genealogy page points to phpgedview instead of your genealogy site
