Created page with "The {{man label|Gramps Package}} backup only contains your family tree a..."

New page

The {{man label|[[Gramps_5.1_Wiki_Manual_-_Manage_Family_Trees#Gramps_XML_Package_.28family_tree_and_media.29_export|Gramps Package]]}} backup only contains your family tree and (when the 'include media' backup option is selected) your media.

The following settings in Gramps are not transferred:

* Any changes you have manually made to [[Gramps_{{man version}}_Wiki_Manual_-_Settings#Advanced_backup_filename_setting|<code>gramp.ini</code>]]
* Any custom settings for [[Gramps_{{man version}}_Wiki_Manual_-_Reports_-_part_1#Report Settings|reports (<code>report_options.xml</code>)]] you have made.
* Any custom [[Gramps_{{man version}}_Wiki_Manual_-_Reports_-_part_3#Books|Books (<code>books.xml</code>)]] you have created.
* Any custom [[Calendar_tools_holidays#Custom_holidays.xml|holiday sets or country calendars (<code>holidays.xml</code>)]] you have created.
* Any changes you have made to the dictionary for spell checking e.g.: new or excluded words.
* Gramps exports objects in the Tree. So any added Tags or custom types that have not been applied to at least one record, the Tag or Type will have no place to be included in the backup.
* Any custom [[Gramps_{{man version}}_Wiki_Manual_-_Filters|filters (<code>custom_filters.xml</code>)]] you have created.
{{Template:Custom Filter migration}}

You can keep your custom settings by manually copying each of the <code>*.xml</code> files from the [[Gramps User Directory]] to the corresponding directory in the new ''gramps_version_number'' directory. Be aware that (due to changes in different versions of Gramps) the settings may no longer work. So be diligent that you test.

==Description==
This is a [https://mediawiki.org/wiki/Transclusion Transclusion] template. It inserts a ''Work-In-Progress'' chunk of text about information not included in Backups that are important when migrating data.

(Since the content was replicated several times on [[Special:WhatLinksHere/Template:Backup_Omissions|many pages]] thoughout the wiki, it makes sense to have a master copy that only needs to be edited once. Once the data is finalized, the Template can be permanently substituted via [https://mediawiki.org/wiki/Transclusion#Alternatives_to_transclusion_by_template subclusion]. Alternatively, a separate page may created and links could replace this transclusion.)

== Usage ==
''insert the following line on the page:''<br />
{{Template: Backup Omissions}}
{{languages|Template:Backup Omissions}}
</noinclude>
