The native Person Person profile places a plus sign just before children's names
to indicate whether the child has descendants,
and to serve as a hyperlink to a descendant report for that child.
This mod changes that descendant indicator to a down-arrow.
It also adds an up-arrow as an indicator that parents have ancestors.
The ancestor indicator is a hyperlink to a parents' ancestor chart.
The native Person Profile lists the names of all branches that the profiled person is in.
This mod hides branch names from some non-administrative users.
The exact set of branch names that are hidden from which users is determined by a mod option
See the mod options or the Wiki article for specifics.
The Regroup Person-Move Media mod simply moves the Media section of the Person Profile from below to above the Event Map. It has no mod options
This mod suppresses ALL data about a person if that person is living or private,
and if the user does not have permission to see the person.
(The native Person Profile will hide the name or show just the initials, and will display links to living relatives.)
The Regroup Person-Sources mod changes the Person Profile to show only the Source title for each Source Citation as the page loads.
It also adds buttons and single-letter hyperlinks that allow you to display the source and/or citation details,
and possibly to display a source image. It has no mod options.
See the Wiki article for details.
This mod changes the layout of the Person Profile in several ways,
with the intent of making it easier to read. For example,
It moves some the profiled person's events below the person's Parent and Family data,
Adds headings (e.g. Parents, Family or Families, Media, Event Map) above each block of data, and
Moves 'metadata' (e.g. the personID, date of last change, and links to the Group Sheet and Family Chart) into headings.
It makes numerous additional changes, some of which are controlled by mod options.
See the Wiki article for details.
This mod's purpose is to treat the standard biological Parent-Child relationship as an unstated default.
The exact terms to be ignored (such as 'natural', 'birth', or 'biological') must be specified as mod options.
This mod changes the layout of Event dates and places,
combining them into one cell so that the date never wraps.
It also tries to move the event text (not the comment) onto that same line.
It's fairly subtle; see the mod's Wiki article for details.
