Adding additional people not suggested in a document

"the Source linker doesn't add everyone on a specific document I'm working on. It is a birth certificate and it mentions the parents and the child but there are witnesses related to them that I want to add. This helps link other uncles and related and in the search.
I tried getting support via whatsapp but the person spent 20 minutes asking for my profile information over and over again and never said how to do it. I'm not sure it is possible at the moment.
I'm also unable to work on family search on my computer, just my phone. It would be great if they check why that is. I had this issue last year with my HP and started working on my macbook pro and now having issues with the macbook pro. Stalling the work
And/or being able to use the link to attach to other people so it automatically generates the link of other profiles."
@ScottSeegmiller can you help?

Source Linker is only equipped to work with indexed data, and godparents/witnesses are almost never indexed.
To attach a source to people mentioned in a document who aren't part of the index, you can either copy one of the index entries to your Source Box and attach that copy, or you can attach the image or a link to it, bypassing the index. If the person does not yet have a profile, you'll need to create one using the "normal" steps (such as "+Add Parent" or "+Add Spouse" on an existing profile's Details page). If you save the source to your Source Box, then you can attach instances of it to multiple profiles, so you only need to do the data entry once.
As for not being able to use your computer: I suggest starting with updating your browser(s). FS commits to making things work in the "big 4" (Firefox, Chrome, Edge, Safari) in the current and previous versions of those browsers. If you use a version older than that, things may still work for a while, but eventually, you'll come up against something that the old browser can't do.
