Custom Filter migration

Keep your collection of custom filters through a minor updates to patch Gramps (e.g., from version 6.0.1 to 6.0.2) by manually copying your custom_filter.xml from Gramps User Directory to the corresponding directory in new gramps_version_number.

Even minor upgrades with feature changes (e.g., from a 6.0.x to a 6.1.x version) may include XML format changes since the recent innovation of addon rules are causing rapid evolution in Filters. So porting filters in this manner requires verification that the XML definitions haven't changed. Also, Addon rules may have to be installed in the new upgrade before copied custom filters will work safely.

Description

Transclusion template. Inserts a Work-In-Progress chunk of text about information not included in Backups that are important when migrating data.

Usage

insert the following line on the page:
