Error in the add spouse page?

I was just adding a female spouse to Bennett Munro, who had two children attached to him. One of them, Benoni, already had a mother attached --- Bennett's second wife. When I went to create the profile for Bennett's first wife, at the bottom where it lists the children and asks if you want to make the new spouse a parent to them, it says, "Benoni Munro [has father]."

Should this say "[has mother]"? It seems to me that comment in brackets was included to explain why there is no check box next to his name, allowing me to set his mother or not. It is obvious that he has a father, since the whole reason his name was listed was that he was attached as a son of Bennett.

I think this is probably the same issue as was raised in https://www.wikitree.com/g2g/1473894/adding-parent-spouse-bug? There's no comment on that to say it has been added to the list of bugs, so perhaps if you add the tag "bugs" to your question then Jamie will notice one of them and add it to the list.

I was looking for that!  Thanks for posting the link. smiley

Thanks, Paul
We're redesigning how family members get added, but I'll try to make sure this isn't a new problem with the new form :)
Oooh, a revamp. That sounds interesting. Thanks, Jamie
