Events of close relatives - incorrect relationship name

Open MarkyJ1 opened this issue 1 year ago • 3 comments

Individual page - Facts and events tab

If the events of close relatives are shown then the relationship name used for a partner (never married) assumes that they were married.

E.g., in the attached, I'd expect the event to be 'Death of a partner'.

As well as death, we have burial and cremation.

Would we also want "Death of an ex-husband" for divorced couples?

Or should we restrict this event to actual husbands (married, not divorced)?

+1 for death/burial/cremation of exes

My choice would be to just show vital events (birth, marriages, death).

If easy, use the relationship name as used elsewhere in webtrees e.g. 'partner', 'ex-husband'. If not easy then just show actual spouses and ignore the others.
