On this topic, the new update, just available, fixes the ordinance information problem, to some degree. There are still some things that don't work quite like they are supposed to, such as, for example, sharing ordinances with the church doesn't work now, which means that if you want to do that, you have to go into the FamilySearch Family Tree website to get the sharing done -- every time.

Nevertheless, I very much appreciate all that is being done, and if we can be understanding and patient, I'm sure things will work out okay, and in the meantime we can enjoy a happier life.

I agree with you on coordination of changes. It makes it so much easier for everyone.

We try - failure to coordinate can result in things going sideways in a hurry.

Happy hunting.

    Janie,

API’s exist so that third parties can interface with their data. I understand changes need to be made and we are not dealing with
    high security information here… after all most of the people who
    are listed in family search are dead.

    You would think that any changes to the API would be sent to the
    developers of those who use them so that they can make the changes
    to their systems in advance of the new API deployment.

    Or they could maintain backwards compatibility for some time so
    that people can switch over to the new API smoothly.

    As for the Govt… I’m former US Gov employee… I’ve seen many things
    fixed until they are broken.

    Hey Allen,

    I work for the US Government, and I resemble that remark! 😁

    But you can't sit still. The computer industry is constantly
    changing to provide better, faster, safer, and sometimes those
    changes have unintended consequences when you are trying to
    interface with applications you don't own/control.

        Why do they like to do things like this ☹ it was working just
        fine.  You would think that Ancestry and Familysearch were the
        us Government where if it’s not broken they keep fixing it
        until it is.

        LDS members - FamilySearch has changed their API (the
        programming code we use to interface with them) so you won't
        be able to see your Ordinance information on FamilySearch
        through Legacy (via the Temple tab). Luc is working on fixing
        the code on our side to match theirs and then we will get an
        update out as soon as possible.
