#292 Accept All Changes from individual page

[Meliza Amity]

When I update or delete data it may involve more than
one individual and family.

I expected that the Accept All Changes link of the
details page will accept all the related changes.
Found out that I have to accept them separately or to
use the Accept / Reject Changes link and Accept All
Changes on the Review Gedcom Changes page.

I accepted for instance a deletion of an individual and
this caused me to see odd Family List and Family View
data.

I think the top Accept All Changes should accept all the
related changes of an individual, a couple, their children
and their parents.

Meliza,
Is this changed in 4.0?

I have still to accept separately the changes to each
individual and for the family.

Media changes can only be accepted on the Review GEDCOM
Changes page.

Nothing has been done on this recently.

However, I think it is something that we should work on doing, but finding a good way to record what changes are related to each other will be the problem.

We can't just use the username and timestamp because of multi change functions such as search and replace or the research assistant.

We will have to manually record a related change when we are updating a record. This will require changes to the editing api in functions_edit.php and to the pgv_changes data structure. So it would be best done on a branch and then merged in after it is found to be stable.
