Is anyone experiencing a problem attaching several sources one right after the other ?
My problem is that if I am attaching several in a row the program does not remove the one just attached.
After removing cookies, clearing all browsing data it still does not work like it has in the past.
There is a work around but not as it was before.
Trying to send a query there is no response.
Also, cannot find it in the Solutions Gallery under Partners ?

FYI
I am just another 'lowly' User/Patron ...
Just in passing ...
As an aside ...
The access, to the "Solution Gallery", in 'FamilySearch', is located, at the BOTTOM, of MOST pages/screens ...
https://partners.familysearch.org/solutionsgallery/s/
Including, Partner Access ...
I hope, that this may help/assist, somewhat.

I can't figure out what you're asking. When you write, "if I am attaching several in a row the program does not remove the one just attached", what do you mean? Remove from where?

RecordSeek is not a Partner but a program and the directions in Wiki are not working. You can not find it in the Solutions Gallery. The way I have found it just to attach as a source and add to source box. Quick answer......back later....also, when you contact RecordSeek there is no response. I have tried.

Under Source 'Add a new source' - fill in the data wanted and then click the box at the bottom - Add Source to My Source Box' if wanted. You then can attach that source to anyone.
Note: When finding a record to be attached and following the instructions given on the wiki page attaching the source as instructed - it works great BUT REPEATING the process to attach another record the program does NOT have the one you are wanting to attach but refers back to the previous one making it impossible to attach.
The other method works [ or if you are attaching one a day maybe ]

RecordSeek ...
I DO NOT know, about the 'FamilySearch' "Research Wiki" page/screen, on "RecordSeek" ...
But ...
That Said ...
Not so long ago ...
I simply went, to the Website for "RecordSeek" (ie. https://recordseek.com/ ); and, through there, ADDED the "Extension", for "RecordSeek", onto the "Browsers" of BOTH, 'Google' "Chrome"; and, 'Mozilla' "FireFox".
We have only recently, just started to use "RecordSeek", to "Create", some 'User-Defined' "Sources", from EXTERNAL Websites.
And ...
It works just fine ...
[ Mind you, we have NOT tried, attaching, MULTIPLE times, one after the other, through "RecordSeek" ... ]
Previously, we used to do such, MANUALLY, through the "Sources" 'Tab', of an individual/person, in the "Very" LIMITED "Space", of "Creating" an EXTERNAL "Source".
Now ...
That Said ...
IF, you are originally referencing, with your 'Post', that you are having Problems/Issues with, "Creating"; and, "Attaching", through "RecordSeek", MULTIPLE times (ie. one after the other), 'User-Defined' "Sources", from EXTERNAL Websites; THEN, that matter, is NOT specifically related to 'FamilySearch'.
In such case, that is a matter for "RecordSeek".
As such, you NEED to contact "RecordSeek.com" directly.
[ ie. Of course, you CAN provide "Feedback", through the "RecordSeek" programme, to "RecordSeek" ... ]
Just my thoughts.
Good Luck.
I know, that this certainly may not help/assist; but, I hope, that this may provide you with, some additional, insight; and, perspective; and, another avenue to pursue.

Try the process.
Direct contact to RecordSeek.com / feedback brings NO RESPONSE.
Contact with support - can not help.
The work around of just creating a source works. And if only one a day the way described in wiki RecordSeek it works. As was said previously, removing cookies from all browsers - clearing the computer does not resolve but found a way so happy.
Thank you Brett for your input......[ you have a family name - all good ]

Again, regardless, of the 'FamilySearch' "Research Wiki" page/screen, on "RecordSeek" ...
We have been "Creating", a NUMBER (ie. Certainly, MORE than ONE), of 'User-Defined' "Sources", from EXTERNAL Websites, through "RecordSeek", in a Day, WITHOUT significant Problems/Issues.
UNLESS ...
Of course ...
The ONLY problem/issue that we have encountered, is if one Adds, TOO many, CHARACTERS (ie. EXCEEDS the LIMIT, of the Number of Characters, that 'FamilySearch' accepts/allows), in ANY of the "Fields" of:
▬ Source Title
▬ Where the Record Is Found (Citation)
▬ Describe the Record (Notes)
▬ Reason to Attach this Source to this Person (Optional)
And, one gets:
In Chrome
In FireFox
Now ...
IF, that is the case; THEN, ...
Such, can be easily addressed/fixed, by going "Back"; and, REDUCING, the NUMBER of the CHARACTERS, in the Field (or, Fields); so, affected/concerned.
But ...
That Said ...
That has NOTHING to do, with the NUMBER, of 'User-Defined' "Sources", from EXTERNAL Websites, that one creates, through "RecordSeek", in a Day.
OR ...
Question:
Are you referring to attaching A 'User-Defined' "Source", from an EXTERNAL Website, that you created, through "RecordSeek", to MORE than ONE individual/person (ie. MULTIPLE individuals/persons)?
IF, that is the case; THEN, ...
We have NOT tried that; as, we send such "Sources", to our "Source Box"; and, where, necessary, attach to, ADDTIONAL individuals/persons; and/or, to "Couple" Relationships; and/or, "Parent-Child" Relationships, from our "Source Box", rather than through/via "RecordSeek".
Just my thoughts.
Good Luck.
I know, that this certainly may not help/assist; but, I hope, that this may provide you with, some additional, insight; and, perspective; and, another avenue to pursue.
