5 Fix broken links in Ancestry.com gedcoms - ID: 1629901
Last Update: Comment added ( fisharebest )

Recently, ancestry.com has been generating gedcom files with the INDI->FAM
links missing. The FAM->INDI links are still present.

This script uses the FAM->INDI links to recreate the missing INDI->FAM
links.

Upload this script to your PGV directory and your broken gedcom to your
index directory. Fire it up with
www.mysite.com/ancestryfix.php?ged_to_fix=broken.ged

The fixed gedcom will be displayed in your browser. Use either save/as to
save this as a new gedcom, or copy/paste into your favourite text editor.

Since this is likely to be a temporary problem (Ancestry.com are working on
it), I'm not going to waste too much time writing a bullet-proof UI.

The module has been superceded by the gedfix.php module, which also fixes
these problems. All further development in this area will take place in
gedfix.php
