The other day, had a new user ask if Gramps actually supported GEDCOM import. My first reaction was to think "OBVIOUSLY it does, RTFM!" It seemed like this would be a quickly handled question where I could just (kindly) point them at the appropriate subsection of the Import page.

No such luck.

I started searching and there wasn't an obvious page with the step-by-step process for the ideal problem-free import & a "clearing house" or "portal" page to troubleshooting GEDCOM idiosyncracies. Worse, bits & pieces of the critical information was scattered everywhere.

Like the Download page, the basic import page has grown so convoluted (and choked with caveats & tech detail) that it has become scary for the new user.

I've never needed to use the GEDCOM. So thanks for working on it.

ZIM Request for Wiki

I like it and can see that OpenZim has Libzim bindings for Python that could be used with Gramps to have a local copy of the wiki/documentation. How difficult would it be for the Gramps project itself to create the ZIM file? Gioto (talk) 05:27, 25 March 2025 (UTC)

I like that idea, maybe raise a feature request for idea? CallMeDave (talk)

Translating the user manual

Great work and easier to follow for the process used. Thanks Patsy B Lefebre (talk) 11:01, 2 September 2025 (UTC)

It was needed and the page did not show your advice or mine. Thanks CallMeDave (talk)
