  • Gedcom Export!
    You can now export your online HuMo-genealogy genealogical data into a Gedcom file that can be used by other genealogical programs. With version 4.8 you can now also export parts of trees.
  • Merge Gedcom files and use the sophisticated merge system to resolve all duplicates
  • HuMo-genealogy is compatible with the Gedcom files exported by all major genealogy programs (such as Brothers Keeper, Legacy Family Tree, PAF - Personal Ancestral File, Roots Magic and many more). If you use another program, don't worry - if it complies with the Gedcom standards, HuMo-genealogy will most likely handle it. And in the rare case your program should not classify , all chances are that this can be fixed too. HuMo-genealogy is being constantly developed.
  • Your HuMo-genealogy website is easily updated with new material you collected. All that is needed is to upload an updated Gedcom file, read it in - and your site will show the new data.
  • New HuMo-genealogy versions are published all the time. HuMo-genealogy is easily upgraded. In just a few minutes you will be up and running.

Requirements:

  • To publish your HuMo-genealogy website on the internet you need to have a domain hosted by be a paid or free Webhost. HuMo-genealogy is written in PHP and Javascript and uses a MySQL database. To install HuMo-genealogy on your server, your account must have PHP and MySQL support. If you don't know what that means, please consult your Webhost.
  • Installation on the server is simple and straight-forward as explained in the manual (see the button on the menu above).
    No knowledge of PHP or MySQL is required, but you must be able to create a new SQL database (your Webhost can help you with this if you are not familiar with this). Of course you must know how to upload files to your Webhost's server.
  • HuMo-genealogy can also be installed on your PC (mainly used for testing purposes). The way to achieve this is by means of a small server+PHP+mySQL simulator as explained in the manual.
    It is advised to make such an installation, since that way you can test out new HuMo-genealogy versions or alterations you made before you actually put them on the web.
