Gramps 5.1.4 running under Ubuntu 20.04.2
Ancestry.com exports Weblinks as a _WLNK event in their exported GEDCOM.
example: Weblink in GEDCOM from Ancestry.com
1 _WLNK http://dl.antenati.san.beniculturali.it/v/Archivio+di+Stato+di+Bari/Stato+civile+della+restaurazione/Gioia/Matrimoni/1857/005616807_02768.jpg.html
2 TITL 1857 #77 Nicolangelo Ferrara + Maria Luigia Lionetti marriage
Gramps stores this _WLNK as an event with the _WLNK URL put in the Event Description field and the associated TITL ignored.
When I export a subset of this database to a new GEDCOM from Gramps the _WLNK event gets chopped up into this:
1 EVEN http://dl.antenati.san.beniculturali.it/v/Archivio+di+Stato+di+Bari/Stat
2 CONC o+civile+della+restaurazione/Gioia/Matrimoni/1857/005616807_02768.jpg.ht
2 CONC ml
2 TYPE _WLNK
I can see what is happening but unfortunately the Topola Viewer doesn’t deal with this well and shows only the first line in the _WLNK “event”:
http://dl.antenati.san.beniculturali.it/v/Archivio+di+Stato+di+Bari/Stat
This could be a bug in the Topola Viewer but is there a way around it? The viewer deals just fine with the original _WLNK from Ancestry.com but I am using Gramps to spit the database to share with specific DNA matches.
I am not sure why it is being stored as an event because information is lost anyway by putting the URL into the Description field then the associated TITL has no where to go and is lost.
I hear you say possibly that this is a Topola Viewer issue but thought I would raise it here just in case there might be a workaround (I am thinking Isotammi)
Thanks,
