I am trying to add my great, great grandad to my tree. But when I click on his son, the Add Father, Add Mother and Change Parent buttons are not highlighted so are unuseable.
Any ideas on what to do next will be most greatfully received?
Thanks

Just tried my tree and it seems ok. Are you sure there isn't already a parent there, albeit a blank outline?

I have just gone back in to my tree and found that I had put a blank space for the gggrand parents. I have now successfully entered them on my tree.
Thanks to InspectorGreenPen and DizzieLizzie.
