Gramps v6.0.6 - Ubuntu

Does Cardview work with v6, and if so, where is the repository to add it in the addons manager?

There were Gramps core changes that @cdhorn felt were important for a v6 general release. (The CardView Statistics dashboard presented particular challenges.)

However, he did a 6.0 update last May.

This remains a _ **manually installed** _ addon. The developmental repository has no “project” capability for the [Addon Manager](https://gramps-project.org/wiki/index.php/Gramps_Glossary#addon). And it has not been submitted to the queue for inclusion in the Gramps-project curated addon collection.

Ah, I didn’t remember installing it manually in V5. Thanks

I am using Gramps 6.0.6 on Ubuntu. Unfortunately, the installation of the CardView add-on does not work. Does it work for you?

Yes, apart from the fact that its icon doesn’t appear in the icon bar, it works (this screenshot was taken on Linux Mint).

Edit: The directory for this plugin was incorrectly named (CardView-Master instead of CardView), now it works perfectly:
