Wrong position of male and female spouses
I have come across a position in the tree where the male and female spouses are reversed as shown below.
Is someone able to correct this?
The relevant ID numbers are
John Wright MHZR-6TY Alice Rymer KG67-TBP
Jane Wright 9VQ9-W2Q James Wright G8FM-LSM
James Wright L26P-D1Q Hannah Sutton 9KGT-WXW

Tidied up the duplicate and still the same issue.
Cindy Heckers suggestion above suggests to me that there may have been an option that has since been removed.
I have looked at the tree from all of Jane & John Wrights children by -
1 Opening Tree view from Jane Wright
2 Selecting each child individualy and viewing tree from the bottom left of their popup card
All open correctly (Male parent to left Female to right) except Sons James and John
It appears that there was an issue in these parent child links
I have now corrected this by -
1 Open the parent and then open the broken link children in new tabs
2 Opening the parent and scroll down to the relevant child and open the edit / pencil icon
3 Remove the CHILD from the parents
4 Copy the PARENT ID
5 Go to child tab and refresh - parents should now have gone
6 Add parent by ID and paste copied ID
7 Add as couple if correct
8 Go to tree - Refresh page and positions should be fixed

Thanks for the response.
I have just tried on both the website and the mobile app and there does not appear to be a switch position option.
On the web the only options below tools are - see all changes and delete relationship.

There is a duplicate for James Wright G8FM-LSM, James Wright 9VM8-YNM. It MAY help if you clean up the duplicates. At the least, it can't hurt and may make it easier for the system to handle.
