Hi I found this…
myheritage.com
The site was powered by WIX and unfortunately I cant use edit mode to preview the code.
Does anyone know how I could create something an equivalent?
I would use a database and show a link from each node on the tree to a dynamic page with information on many species from that family.
If this is not possible do I create the images, text and leaders or branches joining nodes manually and how would this best be achieved?

Built by Wix, doubt it when there is WP plugins used on it.

If you want to connect multiple datasets, then you can look at using reference fields in your datasets.

As for dynamic pages, you can easily do those.

For the family tree you might have to look at doing it through HTML code, which you can find examples of online.

If you want to pass from the page to the html component and from the html component to the page then you can simply use code for that as shown here.

Hi my apologies, this is the site i was referring to. If you just google you get something else powered by wp as you say.
That being said, thanx for all the references to methods to create a tree structure you researched for me.

Hi, we are looking at doing something similar. Did you figure out the right code?
