Export to Tribal Pages


Robin
 

I have just noticed an issue with my export to Tribal Pages. A couple shown as 'unmarried couple' in FH transfers and is changed to 'Married' within Tribal Pages instead of Partner (their title instead of unmarried). Now this translation error is possibly within Tribal Pages but I am wondering if I should label these 'unmarried couples' as 'never married' instead? Has anyone else found this anomoly?

Robin,

The exported Family record is the most important element.

If there is no Status and no Marriage event then the Family (FAM) record only contains the HUSB, WIFE and CHIL links to family members.

If there is a Status then it is included in a local Note as “1 NOTE Marriage Status: Unmarried Couple” (or Never Married, etc).

I would be surprised if that local Note had any affect on Tribal Pages, so changing the Status is unlikely to do anything.

 

I’ve had a quick look in Tribal Pages and see where it can be edited to allow partners to be unmarried.

However, I have no idea how that status can be imported via GEDCOM, especially as there is no GEDCOM export option.

Have you any ideas on how we could find out?
