Tips & Tricks
After creating or updating a form (in <code>custom.xml</code> or <code>test.xml</code>), you need to close and restart Gramps to test it.
If the "New" & "Edit" buttons don't appear in the form then there is an XML syntax (or other) error. Unfortunately, "Forms" will not tell you this or where the error is! Luckily you may get a message in "<code>gramps51.log</code>" (in the root of gramps user directory for v5.1) that may look like:  <nowiki>Traceback (most recent call last): File "C:\Program Files\GrampsAIO64-5.1.2\gramps\gen\plug\_manager.py", line 252, in load_plugin _module = self.import_plugin(pdata) ... File "C:\Users\Dennis\AppData\Roaming\gramps\gramps51\plugins\Form\form.py", line 114, in __load_definitions dom = xml.dom.minidom.parse(definition_file) File "AIO/xml/dom/minidom.py", line 1958, in parse File "AIO/xml/dom/expatbuilder.py", line 911, in parse File "AIO/xml/dom/expatbuilder.py", line 207, in parseFile xml.parsers.expat.ExpatError: mismatched tag: line 12, column 10</nowiki>
