First, many thanks to excellent webtrees! I have tried years ago phpgedtree and some days ago heard that the webtrees is current project. I put gedcom-file to it and tried many features. It's amazing!

One weird thing is that names are shown like FirstnameLastname without spaces between words. I wonder what is the thing which makes such thing. The version is 1.7.3.

There are no spaces because your GEDCOM file does not contain spaces.

e.g. your GEDCOM file contains

1 NAME Firstname/Lastname/

instead of

1 NAME Firstname /Lastname/

You can fix this in webtrees.

Control panel -> Modules -> Batch update -> Fix name slashes and spaces

I don't see Batch update on my Control panel. Version 1.7.3.

I use FinFamily and if that is a bug writing

1 NAME Firstname/Lastname/

to gedcom, I can tell the FinFamily programmer to fix it. If not a bug, I shall add name fixing module to webtrees.
