    I want to enable my site guests to view my family tree with the hourglass-chart.
    I have 2 problems:
    1. Visitors can ony see 6 generations (out of 9)
    2. for some Individuals they can see all data (name, date of birth/death,picture).. for others they can see the name only.

    how can I fix this - I want my guests to see all generations and all data of an individual

    Thanks for your support
    Volker

    Are you SURE you want all visitors, whether they are logged in or are anonymous, to see ALL details of ALL persons? This setting would contravene Privacy rules in most jurisdictions, especially in Germany.

    Normally, PhpGedView requires visitors to be logged in before personal details of living persons become visible. Dead people's details are not hidden.

    The visibility settings you want to change (I STRONGLY advise to not do this) are found in the Privacy configuration. The number of generations to show in the hourglass chart is probably controlled in the Layout section of the Display and Layout group of the GEDCOM configuration, I'm not sure about this -- I haven't tried to change the defaults since they work well for me.
