Source Linker Feedback

As of June 3, 2024, the option to toggle back to the old source linker has been removed.

⭐️⭐️ Note: This space is only for posts related to user feedback. Please refrain from posting general questions that are unrelated to this topic. ⭐️⭐️

The new Source Linker should work like the prior version. The difference is an updated look and feel to match the rest of FamilySearch.org and:

  • We have added the ability to edit the Tree person from within Source Linker.
  • Standardized dates and places are now automatically saved as the source is added.
  • A view panel was added to show the indexed record.
  • The ability to edit the indexed record is provided.
  • An indicator will compare the indexed record to the FamilyTree data and indicate when it is different.
  • New colors, fonts, arrows, and checkmarks have been added based on user feedback.
  • Baptisms now populate in the Christening field.
  • Marriage registration events now populate the Marriage field.
  • Death Registration will now populate the Death fieldd.
