Could you please put the "possible duplicate" feature in the interface of the web page, as it is and as it is in the fan view of the mobile application. The person who has a potential duplicate appears marked in yellow, but only does so in the application and not on the web page, which only appears in blue suggested records and red data problems.


It would help a lot.

Thanks.

    FYI

    Welcome to the "Community.FamilySearch" Forum.

    I am just another 'lowly' User/Patron ...

    Just in passing ...

    I am sorry ...

    I definite 'NO' ...

    In fact, that is the LAST thing, that we need ...

    We DO NOT want; NOR, do we need, the "Possible Duplicates", in the ORIGINAL Computer Website version, of the "Family Tree" Part, of 'FamilySearch', to display (ie. 'look') anything like, "Possible Duplicates", in the NEWER "Mobile" Application version, of the "Family Tree" Part, of 'FamilySearch'.

    As, the ORIGINAL Computer Website version, of the "Family Tree" Part, of 'FamilySearch'; and, the NEWER "Mobile" Application version, of the "Family Tree" Part, of 'FamilySearch', ARE meant, for the use, in Two (x2) DIFFERENT (Display) Screens.

    The ORIGINAL Computer Website version, of the "Family Tree" Part, of 'FamilySearch', is principally meant for the LARGER (Display) Screens/Monitors, for Computers (and, Laptop Computers).

    Whereas ...

    The NEWER "Mobile" Application version, of the "Family Tree" Part, of 'FamilySearch', is principally meant for the SAMLLER Screens, for "Mobile" Devices (ie. Phones; and, Tablets).

    There are TWO (x2) separate and distinct "Teams", working on the TWO (x2) separate and distinct products, for the TWO (x2) separate and distinct mediums.

    It is certainly BAD enough, that the ORIGINAL Computer Website version, of the "Family Tree" Part, of 'FamilySearch' is being MADE to 'look' like "Social Media", in general; and, some of the "Social Media" features, of the NEWER "Mobile" Application version, of the "Family Tree" Part, of 'FamilySearch'.

    I would humbly venture to suggest, that many of the OLDER Generations, would be MUCH Happier, NOT have the ORIGINAL Computer Website version, of the "Family Tree" Part, of 'FamilySearch', 'look' like "Social Media".

    Whereas, I would humbly venture to suggest, that the YOUNGER Generations, would be quite Happy, to have the NEWER "Mobile" Application version, of the "Family Tree" Part, of 'FamilySearch', to 'look' and 'feel' like "Social Media".

    But ...

    That Said ...

    Please DO NOT confuse or mix the two ...

    Again ...

    I am sorry ...

    I definite 'NO' ...

    In fact, that is the LAST thing, that we need ...

    We DO NOT want; NOR, do we need, the "Possible Duplicates", in the ORIGINAL Computer Website version, of the "Family Tree" Part, of 'FamilySearch', to display (ie. 'look' like), "Possible Duplicates", in the NEWER "Mobile" Application version, of the "Family Tree" Part, of 'FamilySearch'.

    Just my thoughts.

    Brett

    ps: And, I happen to use BOTH, the ORIGINAL Computer Website version, of the "Family Tree" Part, of 'FamilySearch'; and, the NEWER "Mobile" Application version, of the "Family Tree" Part, of 'FamilySearch'.

    [ Although, NOT for SAME purpose ... One is for doing the REAL work; whereas, the other, is just for 'Shown and Tell' ]
