Attach Source Tool fails to install

[Doug_B]

I've installed AttachSourceTool.py in my gramps plugin directory, but
Plugin Status shows "Fail: name 'register' is not defined".

I'm using gramps version 3.1.1-1.

Any suggestions?

Doug,

You'll have to be very careful with bleeding-edge code like this, as
it hasn't been well tested, and requires you to be especially
sensitive to the details. As our new Addon system evolves, this will
be easier, put for now here are some updated instructions.

This is a tool that will add a shared source to people that you select
(everyone, or by selecting by a filter). These instructions are just
for Gramps 3.1.

First, delete those original files (the AttachSourceTool.gpr.py was
just for Gramps 3.2 anyway).

Now, get the file:

http://gramps-addons.svn.sourceforge.net/viewvc/gramps-addons/contrib/AttachSourceTool/AttachSourceTool.py

and save it in your user plugins directory. If you then restart
Gramps, you should find a Tool -> Attach Source. If you have further
problems, please put a note in the bug tracker:

Thanks, and let me know if this works for you,

-Doug

Thanks.
I've installed the new Attach Source Tool and on a quick trial it works
very nicely on 3.1.1-1 with filtered selections of persons.
