How to install add-ons? was created by Saak123
Hello,
I'm a quite new user of webtrees and I saw some cool add-ons on the site (Facebook integration, JustBlack theme, JS editor)
But where can I install this themes?

Thanks!
Sjors

P.s Where can I edit the footer?

From memory, you can simply unzip themes into the "themes" folder and extra modules go into the "modules" folder. This should be done with FTP to your server.

From what I read the facebook login plugin is not really adding much value or convenience.

For customising the footer, it depends what you want. Do you know php, html, css and/or javascript? If you do, you can create a new theme with modified footer.

stamboom.BertKoor.nl runs on webtrees v1.7.13

Just use caution and good reason. Not all addons are maintained and all can be problematic when it comes time to upgrading - which is very important to maintain the best performance and good security of your data. Using tons of addons can easily trip you up and not allow you to know when you have a problem, what software is causing the breakdown.
