So a Python line in the WEBSITES section of WebPack.py that reads like:
<pre>["Person", "WikiTree", "WikiTree", "https://wikitree.sdms.si/function/WTWebProfileSearch/Profiles.htm?&Query=%(given)s+%(surname)s+B%(birth)s+D%(death)s&MaxProfiles=500&SortOrder=Default&PageSize=10"],</pre>
creates a {{man menu|WikiTree }} submenu line to the contextual pop-up menu's {{man menu|Web Connection}} group in the People category view.
Selecting that a {{man menu|WikiTree }} submenu line for a Person Gramps records as being named ''Richard Milhous Nixon''; born ''12 January 1913'' in ''Yorba Linda, California''; died ''23 April 1994'' in ''Manhatten, New York''; would send the following query line to your default browser:

==Issues==
If the external website that "[https://gramps-project.org/bugs/tag_view_page.php?tag_id=281 Web Connect Pack]" queries against changes its query method, please raise an issue on the bug tracker.

If the query no longer works because the website updated the way searches happen these addons will need updating also.
