The "Colour" (ie. "Legend") Scheme for "Temple" Work has been CHANGED.

.

Previously, there was x8 (really x9) "Colour" states for the 'Status' of "Temple" Work.

For whatever reason, 'FamilySearch' felt/considered that there were too MANY states for the 'Status' of "Temple" Work; and, reduced the number.

Now, there are ONLY x4 "Colour" states for the 'Status' of "Temple" Work.

A lot of Member Users/Patrons, were; and, are (still), concerned with the change.

This was the first iteration of the changed "Colour" (ie. "Legend") Scheme:

If you go to your Tree view (Family Tree), you'll see the following option on the upper right corner of the FamilySearch screen: "Options" . Click that and the menu below will appear, showing all of the various colors and symbol meanings. You'll notice that I use a dark background with white lettering for my Family Tree view - that's what the "Invert Colors" option (last item at the bottom of the menu) means, just above "Print." You can self-select each of those options on your Tree simply by unchecking or checking the check boxes next to each one (i.e. turn them on or off).
