Profile page: Brief Life History and Other Relationships do not display Last Changed date or user ID

For the Brief Life History, the Last Changed date and user ID properties do not appear on the profile page, the modal display of the history or the editing form of the history. It seems that the only way to find this information is through the change log.

For the Other Relationships, these properties are not shown on the profile page but are always shown on the modal editing form.

Both of these items are in sections separate from Vitals and Other Information, each of which has its own switch to control the display of this information. Those switches do not affect the reported behaviour.

Can these properties be displayed in the same places as the other profile properties?

I have filed a Make a Suggestion form to this effect. I am posting this here for anyone who is interested to see (including myself).

    @JulianBrown38 Sometimes I use the Notes and Collaborate to direct users to Brief family history - have you tried that and what do you think?

    @maryellenstevensbarnes1 I was looking at this from the perspective of a user who encounters a brief life history and would like to contact the author. At present they would either have to use the change log, or take a punt on one of the contributors displayed against a different property. That user wouldn't necessarily be the most recent contributor to the brief life history.

    @JulianBrown38 Good observations. I would make two notes:

    • The omission of the contributor details on the Brief Life History on the website seems like an oversight. Interestingly, the Family Tree mobile app shows the contributor details for the Brief Life History, just as it does for other conclusions.
    • The display of contributor information for Other Relationships exactly matches the way it is done for primary (Couple and Parent-Child) relationships. I'm not saying it's optimal, but at least it's consistent. If a change were to be made in this regard for Other Relationships, the corresponding change should be made for the primary relationships as well.

    For the Brief Life History on the Person's Detail Page, some relationship details cannot be shared as they may involve names for living people
