Issue with Relationship Viewer
I'm running into some issues with viewing relationships on FamilySearch.
Often, it won't load the relationship. This is what appears:
Then later on, seemingly at random, it ends up loading properly. This often happens if I manage to load a different relationship on another tab and then go back. The system lags just a little before successfully loading it, but is pretty quick when it fails, making me think that perhaps the previous example comes from it just skipping the process of finding the relationship somehow.
It's also worth noting that the relationship viewer will sometimes show completely different lines to the same ancestor. This was pulled up from an ancestor's name on the home page:
…and this is from the same individual's profile page just seconds later:
When backing out from the relationship on the profile and with the relationship still pulled up on the home page, the relationship changes to match the home page version. There seems to be a great deal of randomness involved here.
Today is the first time I've encountered this. This doesn't appear to be intended behavior. It's also pretty intermittent, so I don't know how easily it can be replicated.
