An Error Has Occurred

Thank you for using FamilySearch.org

I have tried this in Firefox, Chrome, Edge and Vivaldi, and I get the same error message. If I go to that database directly and search, I don't get a result for her. It's been a couple hours since I first tried it, so "soon" should have happened.

    'Yes' ...

    When you select the "Record Hint", you get this ,,,



    Then, when to try to "Review and Attach", you get this ...



    The URL for that "Source" was: https://familysearch.org/ark:/61903/1...

    [ie. https:// familysearch.org/ ark:/ 61903/ 1:1:JW53-LRY ... but, without the 'spaces']

    Which, when you try to access, you get this ...



    Certainly, NOT good; or, NOR helpful ...

    This is off topic, but I thought you might like to know this. If you look at the Supported HTML document for GetSatisfaction.com, you can use the "code" tag to put in full URLs. E.g.:

    https://familysearch.org/ark:/61903/1:1:MDF1-Z8H

    'Thank You' so much for that.

    Always drivers me crazy when I want the whole URL to appear (be displayed).

    FYI

    In case you had not seen this, a subsequent related post on the problem/issue, from 4 Hours ago:

    Record Hints show a blank screen.

    By accident, I just came across these two Knowledge Articles in FamilySearch:

    I can't see top-level menu or other parts of FamilySearch
    https://www.familysearch.org/help/sal...

    Turning off an ad blocker or similar program was something that I was NOT aware of.

    Why is FamilySearch blank?
    https://www.familysearch.org/help/sal...

    Most likely unrelated; but, just in case, you never know ...

    I thought this might help.
