I have just noticed something strange. When I have a person who has died, but I have no date, but I have a location, then that person shows as Private to casual visitors. If I remove the location, then they are visible to visitors. If I simply add a note to the death entry, they are again shown as Private to visitors. Here is an example of the raw gedcom record of a person who displays as private to a casual visitor.

I have checked my privacy settings and all appear correct. Any help would be appreciated.

I have misplaced your email address. Could you give it to me again please or will I send it through SourceForge? The zip file is a shade over 3 Megs in size. I could also give you an admin account to my site if that would help.
Thanks for any help.

But I am now not sure that sending you my Gedcom and causing you all of the work will achieve much. Since I reported this problem I have been able to easily replicate it. I simply create a new child to a family, simply adding birth and death events. Here is the relevant raw Gedcom record.

This entry correctly displays. That is, it is not shown as Private. Now if I simply add the word Australia as a PLAC entry, as in:

This person is now shown as Private to casual visitors.
If you would still like me to send you my Gedcom I would be happy to do so. Or I could give you an Admin account on my web site and you could try it yourself.
Thanks,

What Gerry was trying to do is test whether this was fixed as one of the many bugs squashed AFTER the release of 4.2.3
It IS. Upgrade to 4.3 SVN and this problem will go away.
Here's a link to a similarly designed indi: http://pgv.myarnolds.com/individual.php?pid=I15099&ged=Thomas_Kinman.ged
I will now upgrade as soon as I can. On the question of upgrading, I seem to recall people having difficulties with what to use. Please would you confirm that I should use the GNU tarball?

Yup. There should be no problems for those that use the proper set of files and replace all except those you normally keep for any update - index, media, language (specials and/or extras) and config.php. As always - make a backup and then make another! http://phpgedview.svn.sourceforge.net/viewvc/phpgedview/trunk/phpGedView/?view=tar -Stephen

Make sure you export the database to create a fresh GEDCOM first. After the upgrade, you should re-import the previously exported GEDCOM. This will ensure that the database is properly populated.
The Export and Import functions can be found on the Manage GEDCOMs page.

What version of PGV are you using?
Sorry: I should have read the title more carefully.
Can you send me a copy of your GEDCOM so that I can test this with the SVN version? ZIP file is preferred.
There have been some changes in the isdead() function, so this problem might well have been fixd in SVN.

It's better if I try to load your GEDCOM on my off-line server. That way, I can put in some debugging code if necessary.
You'll have to tell me a few of the ID numbers where this problem occurs.
Thanks Gerry,
