Issue Attaching Sources to People
Hi all! I've been getting into genealogy lately and love this website... but over the last few days, I've encountered an issue.
Specifically, when I try to connect a source to a person, or just to get to the screen where you do that, I get a page that looks like this:
The page never finishes loading, or gets to a point where I can actually connect sources with individuals as normal.
I'm on Firefox, if that makes a difference. I know a friend is having the same issue, but I've seen individuals in my family tree have sources attached in the last few days, so it's clearly not affecting everybody.
I can provide any more information if needed.

Such errors on FamilySearch are often caused by a momentary connectivity glitch that your browser has "helpfully" saved in a temporary file (cookie or cached page). The quick and easy way to check whether this is the case is to temporarily switch to a different browser. If it works there, then some housekeeping (clearing your FS-related cache and cookies) in your original browser should restore functionality.

If this happens to me where the spinner never stops I click on the (Review and Attach) button and the source linker continues. This happens often when I try to attach a 1950 US Census record.
