In addition, a more global translation of the text file can be obtained by appending {{c|_lg}} to the filename (where lg is the 2 letter acronym of a given language) which selects an entirely new file, specific to the selected language.

The bases folder is by default a subfolder of the GeneWeb distribution named bases that contains all your personnal data: the genealogical databases themselves with their notes, images, authentification files, template personalisation, etc. It can be moved or renamed according to your preferences.

In each of its etc, images, lang and src folders, subfolders carrying the name of the base mybase hold the specific data for each base.

  • directory distribution: details all the other files and subfolders out of bases folder, like the programs or template files.
    • directory bases: The folder containing the GeneWeb databases
      • directory mybase.gwb: folder of the genealogical database called mybase
      • file mybase.gwf: associated .gwf configuration/parameters file
      • file mybase-f.auth example of password file for friends (friend_passwd_file=)

Bases folder in GeneWeb 7
This section of the documentation is not yet fully implemented. The current version of GeneWeb v7 adheres to the old folder structure.

GeneWeb 7 simplifies the archival of databases regrouping all the files needed for a single database under the same folder. With this configuration, it becomes far simpler to use archival tools such as tar, zip or rar to store a single database folder in an archive (see save for details and comments).

  • directory distribution
    • directory bases: The folder containing the GeneWeb databases
      • directory mybase.gwb: folder of the genealogical database called mybase
        • directory documents: image/txt/pdf/html files, subdirectories allowed (except portraits/ and images/)
          • directory portraits: portraits images called with m=IM&i=index (no sub-dirs here!)
            • file first_name.occurence.last_name.jpg
            • file other_first_name.occurence.last_name.jpg
            • directory saved: saved portraits called with m=IMS&i=index
          • directory images: other images associated with a person shown in a carrousel
            • directory first_name.occurence.last_name: other images associated with a person (no sub_dirs)
              • file otherimage.jpg: images called with m=IM&i=index&s=otherimage.jpg
              • file otherimage.txt: comment associated with otherimage
              • directory saved: saved images and comments called with m=IMS&i=index&s=otherimage.jpg
          • directory subfolder: the documents folder may contain subfolders
          • file myimage.jpg: images called with m=DOC&s=myimage.jpg or m=IM&s=myimage.jpg
          • file mytext.txt: text files called with m=DOC&s=mytext.txt or m=SRC&v=mytext (See translation note below)
          • file mydoc.pdf: PDF files called with m=DOC&s=mydoc.pdf
          • file mypage.html: HTML pages called with m=DOC&s=mypage.html
        • directory etc: configurations files and personnalized variants of template files, used in priority over the generic gw/etc files (see templates)
          • directory cnt: holding access counts for the base and several access logs
            • file counts.txt: access counts
            • file counts.lck: access lock
            • file wizards.log access logs for wizards

          • file comm.log: result of a gwsetup command on this base
          • directory lang: local complements to the language lexicon (loaded with -add_lexicon at gwd start)
          • directory modules: personnalized variants of modules files
            • file module_xx.txt
          • directory templatex: personnal variant of templatex files
          • file config.txt: configuration/parameters file (old mybase.gwf)
          • file mybase-f.auth: example of password file for friends (friend_passwd_file= in config.txt)
          • file mybase-w.auth: example of password file for wizards (wizard_passwd_file= in config.txt)
          • file particles.txt (mybase-particles.txt?): particles list for this base.
          • file hed.txt and trl.txt: base specific header/trailer files
        • directory history: folder with all diff files (this folder may be located elsewhere according to history_path= in config.txt)
          • directory a
          • directory b
          • directory …
          • file history.txt: history of modifications
        • directory notes: folder with all the notes and linked pages
          • file notes.txt: (reserved name) main notes for the base, displayed in the welcome page
          • file linked_page.txt: other "linked_page" obtained with [[[linked_page/text]]]
        • file… base, base.acc, cache_info […] names.inx, notes_links, patches (all internal files and folders of the database)

      • file tags.txt: alternate list of authorized HTML tags (loaded with -allowed_tags at gwd start)
    • directory gw
    • file… gwd/gwsetup launch scripts, CHANGES.txt, README, etc.

Translations: All text files read through the m=SRC&v=file or m=DOC&s=file.txt commands are processed by GeneWeb which expands some macros (%s, %v, %i, %k) and performs translations ([text to be translated]). In addition, a more global translation of the text file can be obtained by appending _lg to the filename (where lg is the 2 letter acronym of a given language) which selects an entirely new file, specific to the selected language.

Files names in italic are user chosen. tags.txt is provided with its full path.

Note that with this configuration, all personnalization happens in files stored in the base folder. A new release of GeneWeb may be installed safely by copying the new gw folder and possibly new copies of gwd/gwsetup launch scripts, CHANGES.txt, README, etc (the last two lines of the tree above).
