Unfortunately I have not had time to maintain this project as I had hoped I would.
You are welcome to fork it, or do what you want with it -- it is Open Source after all.
I'm happy to answer simple questions, but I won't be able to dedicate any significant time to support.
TreeTrumpet is a very easy way to get your family history online. It is simple to install, configuration is optional, and all you need to do is upload a GEDCOM file to update it.
TreeTrumpet was created to make your genealogy look good to visitors, but also to attract visitors. Every time you upload a new GEDCOM file TreeTrumpet notifies Google, Bing and Yahoo that your site has been updated. The search engines can then send visitors to your site.
TreeTrumpet needs to be uploaded to a web server which supports PHP 5.3 or higher. I personally use https://www.bluehost.com/, but any web hosting which supports PHP should work just as well. Your hosting provider will have instructions for uploading files, either through the browser, or through FTP.
Unzip treetrumpet.zip and upload everything inside up to your server. That's all there is to the install.
This project uses several other projects and needs to be built to run. It will not run directly from checked-out code!!!
These instructions work on Debian Linux and OSX. Please let me know what changes you have to make to build on other platforms.
git clone https://github.com/stuporglue/TreeTrumpet.git tree
cd tree
git submodule init
git submodule update --init --recursive
Next you'll need to build jQRangeSlider
Install grunt if you don't have it:
cd js/jQRangeSlider
npm install
npm install -g grunt-cli
grunt
cd ../..
Now you can build TreeTrumpet
php ./build.php
The built project will be in the treetrumpet directory. You can now copy the treetrumpet directory to your web server, or copy and unzip the treetrumpet.zip file.
Export a GEDCOM file from your genealogy program and name it family.ged. Upload it to the webserver. To update the site, simply upload a new file named family.ged.
If you want people to be able contact you by email, or if you want to disable certain pages, copy config.php.example to be named config.php and edit the values inside. Upload it to the web server.
