Search - Find - By ID - person card missing

The person ID card is now missing when using Find by ID. Until just recently one could search by an ID, see the ID in the results, hover over (or click) the person's name and get a person ID card - which contained relationship icon and ordinance icons, etc. Now the click opens the person's detail page.

Has this feature been retired?

    I am very disappointed with those programmers!

    The feature that was there is now gone.

    Now I am being FORCED to open to new tab and then go to find what ordinances were done.

    It used to be a little pop-up by click the name (that pop up used to show tree or person).

    Waste of my time going 2 steps further then back to do another search repeatedly.

    (I have more than 13,000 in shared, mostly maternal Germans).

    I have to do checkups on the completed and what is not completed to prepare for my temple trips.

    For me, the click has always opened on the detail page which has all the icons like this

    Notice the Blue Button: If I click on Detail View, it turns the button white & covers the Reason & Changes info part so you may want to check your Detail View

    This is the Person card that is missing from the Search - Find - By ID screen.

    @Amy Archibald Sorry if this is too simplistic, but this is where I started

    Then I picked Find By ID and entered L7BZ-1S9 to get Results (1) then clicked on the name to get the person card for Alfred Albert Robert Liedtke that you describe

    Thank you for your screen shots. This is not what I'm referring to. I can get to the person's detail page just fine. I want the hover over ID card to come back. It is available on other places within the Family Tree. It is just missing from this search feature now.

    Personally, I like the change. Rarely do I need the popup when I am searching by ID, and with the elimination of the popup, I go directly to the person page, saving me one click with its associated mouse movement every time.

    I certainly understand that some people might find the popup useful in their workflow, but I just thought I'd share a contrasting perspective.

    Alan Brown, I don't like it because I prefer what Amy said. - I have hundreds and I do NOT need to go all the way to full profile every time just to check on relationships and status of ordinances.

    Please restore the feature to "Find" section.
