This webtrees custom module adjusts all themes and other features, providing a look & feel closer to the webtrees 1.x version. The project’s website is cissee.de.
This is a webtrees 2.x module - It cannot be used with webtrees 1.x.
- The overall width is adjusted for larger resolutions, as suggested here
- The individual page is adjusted further:
- Smaller sidebar
- Less padding between elements
- The key-value pairs of the name parts are inline
- Gender information is moved to the header (as an icon)
- Media edit controls is moved to the edit menu (a better place for these edit controls may be the Media tab itself)

- All edit dialogs are also displayed in a more compact layout.
- Note that this module itself is not a theme: The webtrees user will not be able to switch between the compact and the regular layout! All layout adjustments are globally configurable though.
- Further suggestions are very welcome!
