Request: Add an "Add spouse" button when there is no existing spouse
I was just attaching a marriage record to a couple, but I hadn't added their marriage relationship yet. When a profile already has one or more spouses, there's a dropdown that lets you choose which spouse to attach the record to. If none of them match, you can select "none of the above. However, because neither of these people had any spouses attached, that pop-up wasn't available and there was no "add spouse" button or "choose spouse" dropdown. I was able to work around it fairly simply by creating the relationship on the "Details" page on one of the profiles, but I was surprised there wasn't a way to do that straight from the source linker. I'd imagine this feature was intended to be included but may have been overlooked.
EDIT:
I want to clarify the issue, because I think I might have found the problem. The record had already been attached to both people in the marriage, and so the source linker gave me the error that someone had already been attached as the spouse. Now I get why there wasn't the option to add a new spouse.
