Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions about RootsPersona

The GEDCOM file on your PC is untouched. The copy uploaded to WordPress is converted into a set of person and family files in XML format. After conversion, the GEDCOM file uploaded to WordPress is deleted. I only want people who are logged in to see certain people on my site. You can change the default privacy setting on the Options page, or override the setting on a page by page basis.
This is usually a timeout issue on your site. See the explanation on the upload page.
Yes. As long as the INDI ids are the same, existing records will be updated, not duplicated.
You may also delete pages and data using the Tools->Rootspersona->Delete Pages and reload the GEDCOM. Currently you will lose any links to pictures if you do that.
