I use PGV 2.65.3. I change from FTM to Legacy 5 so I could use images in PGV. I have successfully uploaded a GEDCOM, and put the images in images/ and images/thumbs with identical names. The images appear on medialist.php correctly liked to the individuals concerned so presumably the GEDCOM link is OK? However, the images will not display against the individuals on the pedigree chart or on the individuals page. Any suggestions please?

Thanks for the tips Arne. My images were in the media and media/thumbs folder (somehow I typed images when I meant media!), and they were makred as primary. The problem was that in legacy I linked to the thumbs rather than the main image. Now I have changed that, it works just fine for dead individuals. It doesn;t for living but that is cos legacy doesnt export the image path for living people. Still I have images of lots of dead relatives to work on before I worry about the living!
Thanks to everyone who has contributed to PGV for such great software.
p.s. my contribution is that I have spotted a spelling mistake in editconfig.php. On of the options reads "MySQL Datbase Password" when it should read "MySQL Database Password".
All the best to everyone

Oh yes I should say that I have the "Enable multimedia features" and "Show highlight images in people boxes" both set to yes.
Hi Stuckagain
Hopefully you placed your multimedia images in the
media folder and the thumbs folder inside the media folder, and not in the images folder?
And, if you have more than one image pro person, you hopefully have marked which images are primary images ?
Best regards,
Arne
