Use the plugin to create a Member for each person in your family. Assign Members parents from the people you have added. #### Add information for each Member, including: * Photographs * Date and location of birth * Parents * Spouses * Date, location, and reason of death * Up to 20 wives, husbands, professions, schools, religions & middle names #### The plugin has support for: * Featured images – Upload photos to the family member and set them as Featured Image to have their picture added to the family member information table * Multiple wives and husbands, including wedding time span * Multiple professions, schools, religions, locations, and life events * Calendar-based date picker to make it easy to select a date (as far back as 1411!) ### Easy to use! **To add a list of family members** to a post or page: add `[genealogy]` to the content **To add a single family member**, add `[genealogy id=#]` where `id` is the post ID of the Family Member (such as `231`). You can also use `[genealogy slug="john- smith"]` where the URL of the family member is `.../family/john-smith/` ## Screenshots [⌊The screen for adding family members⌉⌊The screen for adding family members⌉[ The screen for adding family members [⌊The Genealogy plugin settings page⌉⌊The Genealogy plugin settings page⌉[ The Genealogy plugin settings page ## Installation 1.

The plugin works flawlessly in the responsive design them I am using, and I am VERY impressed so far. GEDCOM support would be great as another family member has a standalone Family Tree program that can output GEDCOM files. That would save weeks of typing… The other item on my “ wish list” is a “Tree” graphic – currently the only over-view seems to consist of an HTML “sitemap” that lists all Members… A graphical view of that would be awesome… Kind regards Ben [ Read all 3 reviews ](https://wordpress.org/support/plugin/genealogy/reviews/) ## Contributors & Developers “Genealogy” is open source software.
