Unable to un-merge profiles ?
I didn't realise there'd been an update, so I could be missing something on the how-to - Currently unable to un-merge profiles (from previous old 'bad' mergings) - the past 36 hours or so there's been no option to un-merge; the profiles are greyed-out with details & history but all inaccessible, like a fixed half-way between deleted & not?

@AshFrost thank you for the feedback. Are you able to provide a PID or link to the specific issue you are seeing?

My guess is that the profiles that cannot be unmerged are actually deleted profiles. You've never been able to unmerge deleted profiles, except by using the information in the "Deleted Person" banner. But because the normal banner that used to inform you of the deleted state of the profile is now missing, it's easy to get confused and think they are active profiles.
Here's an example: GNLN-PP4 is the deleted profile for Joseph Bottomley.
The fundamental problem is reported in the post Deleted Banner Missing.

Thank you to both replies, I appreciate it 😊
- I was deliberately un-merging previous 'bad' mergings of deleted profiles in order to untangle lines [where profiles have been erroneously merged due to having similar-ish names but regardless of them living in different countries / centuries, ect]
- So it's because the banner is missing, a temporary technical glitch not a permanent alteration; Phew - I'm kind've lost without that banner..1 -
Panic over; it has been restored! ~ MANY thanks 😁
