Adding to Trusted Lists

Question

I just tried adding a nephew to the trusted list for my cousin, his mom.  He just joined wikitree and I added his email address (3-4x in fact)

I'm then taken to a new page to      "Add an Unrelated Person"  That calls for a complete Bio setup.    Which makes no sense.

When I return to the Privacy page for the relevant profile (for his mom), my nephew's name does not appear.   I cannot find a way to see a list for that profile.     I DID just receive an email indicating that my submission worked, but I'm puzzled at the strange manner that this info is handled and displayed.

Answer 1

You have to enter the same identical email address that your nephew used to join WikiTree. Otherwise it takes you to that Add an Unrelated Person page. 

If you are sure that the address is correct, then perhaps there is a 24 hour lag after he joins for WikiTree to recognize his status? (not sure)

Comments

Thanks Joe.   The lag effect probably explains why he still had trouble directly after I submitted his address, but worked an hour later.    I'm still perplexed that his address or name does not NOW appear on the trusted list.   Ie, how can I CHECK to make sure the list was properly updated?   Not clear to me.
