The Next Generation of Genealogy Sitebuilding© ("TNG") is a powerful way to manage and display your genealogy data on the Internet,
all without generating a single page of HTML. Instead, your information is stored in MySQL database tables and dynamically displayed in attractive fashion with PHP (a scripting language).
Want to learn more? While here you can:
If your web server supports PHP and MySQL,
you can set up and run TNG with very little effort. Don't settle for 'ancient' site creation methods that leave you with thousands of dull-looking HTML pages!
Need Hosting?
Need a low-cost hosting provider who supports PHP/MySQL? I recommend Simply Hosting, for only $4.99/month (or less if you pay annually).
They're very friendly to TNG users and will even help you with the installation if necessary. Plus, they'll give TNG users the first month of hosting free!
You could also try the host I used to use, ICDSoft.com. They have excellent support and are only $6/month (paid annually). A good
option for both US and international users. I only left because the TNG site became too big for their shared environment.
New & Improved in TNG 7:
- Administration: Many improvements in the administrative area make online site management a lot easier than before
(smaller forms, fewer page refreshes, no more popup windows, and many more "Web 2.0" enhancements).
- PDF Reports: Create PDF documents directly from pedigree, descendancy and individual charts.
- Albums: Albums can now be linked directly to individuals and families, and Web 2.0 administration makes it easy to group your photos and other media items.
- Media: More robust online management, and you can now create your own media types.
- Most Wanted: Dynamically create a list of the people or photos you're interested in the most.
- Look and Feel: Several pages have been restyled for easier use and a nicer appearance (Cemeteries, Surnames, Places).
- Faster Upgrade: Coming from an earlier version of TNG? No problem!
- Security: Enjoy stronger protection against the latest malicious influences.
- Search: Searchable columns make lookups easier and more informative.
- Search Engines: A few key changes should make your pages more visible.
- Google Maps: The new "Default Zoom" setting will save you time when you're pinpointing your locations.
- Places: A few popular 3rd-party GEDCOM conventions are now supported, allowing many of you to import latitude and longitude data already in your file.
- TNG Network: A direct link to this surname lookup site makes it easier for you to index your own data there.
- Plus many more improvements! See a complete list of all changes here. Tested on all major browser platforms.
