How to message someone from inside familysearch?

RichYoude

It has been suggested that I message someone who posted info about someone I am trying to link to me. How do I message from inside familytree?

To point you to the Familysearch messaging feature - you can access it in top right - the little chat icon between the question mark and the bell icons - of the window.

Once in messaging you can type in the To: field the username and then input the Message below.

Unfortunately, there is a restriction that you will only be able to send to users you have initially messaged through their contact link in the FamilyTree.

I hope this helps!
