v25.11.1

2025-11-28

:turkey: As November draws to a close, we’re pleased to share yet another Gramps Web release. Thanks to the continued engagement and dedication of the community, it brings several helpful new editing capabilities, a cleaner global search experience, and a set of targeted fixes that smooth out minor UI quirks.

New Features

Create Persons from Family View

So far, adding a child or a parent to an existing family in Gramps Web was a multi-step procedure: adding the new person using the “new person” view, navigating to the existing family, and linking the new person to the family as child or parent.

In https://github.com/gramps-project/gramps-web/pull/841, @mschuepbach introduced two new dialogs that make this editing experience much smoother: you can now create a new parent or a new child directly from the family page without navigating away from it.

Edit Source and Repository Details

Among the few properties of Gramps objects that were not yet editable from the Gramps Web user interface, @jittymolmathew92 closed almost all of the remaining gaps.

https://github.com/gramps-project/gramps-web/pull/832 introduced the capability to edit the abbreviation, author, and publication info of a source; https://github.com/gramps-project/gramps-web/pull/835 added the possibility to edit the type of an existing repository.

Improvements

In https://github.com/gramps-project/gramps-web/pull/834, @Ziesie1 improved the behaviour of the filter buttons in the global search view. Selecting a single object type to filter by (e.g., event) now requires a single click instead of two – and is much more intuitive.
