Why is the "Add Spouse" buttons greyed out for these Living persons?

Jon W. Thomas

I was processing a record hint for my 5th cousin born in 1948 who I've previously created as Living. The record hint shows a daughter born in 1976, and it shows the father's name (husband of the mother) both of which I didn't have. But when I tried to click "Add" for the husband in source linker, it kept complaining that I hadn't checked the Living or Deceased radio button, but I had clicked Living. Rinse & repeat, over & over same results.

So then I tried to manually add the husband mentioned in the source, by clicking the "Add Spouse" button, but nothing happened because it was greyed out. Notice that the "Add Child" button is also greyed out. Is there a new reason? Or is this something turned off while engineering is fixing a related bug? See snapshot.

I looked at some of my other living people (more closely related), and their buttons are not greyed out. But I looked at Julianne's sister Debra, and her "Add Spouse" buttons are also greyed out. Hopefully engineering can take a look at my account.

I found out these questions are not supposed to be asked in "Groups", but in "Help Categories" (hence why nobody has responded). So I've duplicated it at https://community.familysearch.org/en/discussion/120102/why-is-the-add-spouse-buttons-greyed-out-for-these-living-persons/p1?new=1
