Sorry. I just found a small bug in v1.3.0.

The file of February 6, 2011, contained a small bug which resulted in not showing ancestors/descendants of a person. This is fixed in the file of February 9, 2011.

If you downloaded the installation file before today, please, upgrade to the latest joaktree,
Fix for Joaktree 1.2.8
Posted Saturday, 12 February 2011 By Niels
I discovered a bug in the name list. When no names where searched for, a warning message appeares in combination with an empty name list.

I created a fix for this bug. You can download it from my site.

It contains one file which replaces the existing file in components/com_joaktree/models directory.
There is no automatic upgrade from the Joomla installer. You have to replace it yourself.

Excuses for this inconvenience. I will test my software better in the future.

Hoi Niels,

Ik maak gebruik van Joomla 1.6 en Joatree 1.3.0.. Nu zie ik dat bij de voorouders en afstammelingen geen informatie komt staan. Terwijl deze er wel zijn.
Max execution time
Posted Wednesday, 23 March 2011 By Maarten Gruijters
Niels,

Ben wat aan het stoeien geweest met versie 1.2.8 voor Joomla 1.5 i.v.m. de foutmelding max execution time. Deze verhogen naar 180 had geen succes, door echter eveneens de string max input time te verhogen naar 180 kreeg ik lokaal in ieder geval alles geïmporteerd. Misschien geeft dit je een aanwijzing.

max_execution_time = 180
max_input_time = 180
Error with upgrading v1.3.1 to v1.3.2
Posted Tuesday, 19 April 2011 By Niels
Just reported ...
One user reported to have a problem using the upgrade package (Joaktree version 1.3.1 to version 1.3.2). It seems that everytime I use it, the graphical output is getting lost. Only deinstalling, new install of full package and new import of GedCom File will fix this.


Reply by Niels: I will look into this problem soon.
