Please can someone tell me how to add a marriage date for my mum & dad in my tree. If I click on edit for either person, their details come up, but there's nowhere for me to add a marriage? If I go onto my dads details, I get a note at the bottom telling me I haven't put their marriage date in & when I click on the link that is there, to my mum's details, there's nowhere to put it? :-S

Hi Denise, sorry not posting to provide an answer but to acknowledge that I too am having "random" issues with this i.e. sometimes the marriage details section is visible and sometimes not!
I have often just clicked on random relatives at various point is the tree and then when gone back its magically appeared. :-S.

However often this has taken a long time and get so frustrated give up and log off.

Regards

I have found the marriage details disappear when I've clicked on the 'timeline', but it is possible to find them again. I have reported this fault.

The best place to update is on the 'home page' of the tree, use the 'edit' button.

There are many problems with the new style tree. If you have the option use the old style, it works better.
