Third-party plugins give you more tools to work with your genealogy data in GRAMPS. This page lists plugins written by users to work with the current 3.0.x series version of GRAMPS. Plugins which have not yet been re-written to work with the current version can be seen on the Old Third-party Plugins page.

These plugins are not officially part of GRAMPS and are not supported by the GRAMPS Developers. Any feature requests or bugs with these plugins should be directed at the respective plugin writer, NOT to the GRAMPS bug tracker!

Installing Plugins in GRAMPS

To use one of these plugins add the file(s) to your GRAMPS User Directory, and either restart GRAMPS or reload all plugins by selecting 'Tools > Debug > Reload Plugins'.

Quick Reports

For Quick Reports, see Unsupported Quick Reports. Quick Reports are a new addition to GRAMPS 3.0, which allows for easy plugin creation on a fixed canvas.

Hungaria (Website Generator)

Hungaria is a GRAMPS 3.0 plugin that seeks to generate feature- and media-rich websites.

It is currently in pre-alpha stage--not feature-complete, nor ready for serious use. It is available for testing however, in order to showcase features as they are added. The website [1] also shows example websites generated by the latest available version of Hungaria and its precursor XSLT stylesheets.

Chief among Hungaria's aims is to more actively and meaningfully integrate photographs into genealogy websites (e.g.: providing mouse-over thumbnail profiles of individuals, providing mouse-over photograph of places, et al) and to provide both simple and broad internationalization functionality (e.g.: multi-lingual websites are generated by default, notes will be parsed for version in multiple language versions to be displayed on their respective page, et al).

View the demonstration website to get a better idea of Hungaria's aims:

Dentumogeria Demonstration Website (generated by Hungaria's XSLT precursor--more complete)

Hungaria Demonstration Website (generated by Hungaria--less complete)

Plugin Name...

Several 2.x series plugins have been integrated with the GRAMPS code.

Sorry, but no plugins have been converted to 3.0.x at the moment
