This is the ToDo list for software enhancements to WeRelate. They are listed in no particular order. You are welcome to comment on them by adding a comment to the discussion page.
Family Tree Explorer
- New Person, Spouse, Parents, Child buttons?
- One-click addition of an individual's ancestors and/or descendents
- Checkboxes to add anc/desc on add this page
- list all "red" pages needing creation
- list all linked pages not in your tree, and add-all action
- global search and replace
- generate a list of people in your tree as a personal research page
- control-click opens new tab or window?
- key to maximize FTE frame?
- export GEDCOM
- When you select Unrelated person from the Add menu and enter multiple given names, only the first given name appears on the person page.
- If you click on a link that takes you outside of WeRelate, the Family Tree Explorer may go away. Have all off-site links open in a new window when you're running Family Tree Explorer.
Person/Family pages
- put surname prefix in titles in GEDCOM upload?
- propagate baptism like birth/christening
- sort families by marriage date on person page
- larger edit boxes, better support for wiki markup, better handling of line-breaks in source texts and notes
- propagate marriage date from Family pages to Person page, and sort spouse families by marriage date so earlier marriages appear first.
- propagate titles of parents, spouses, and children from Family pages to Person page.
