Looks as though it will print with details if you want it to

No go trying with the 1837-2005 England and Wales Marriage Registration Index either. just the headings, no details like names, year, possible spouses etc

and strange with a census. I inputted a surname and hit the first record that came up

Nothing on Frederick's bit, but it did copy the people in the household including him.

The same with censuses.

A way round it is to follow these instructions from FS Help .

It's a long-winded nuisance, but it works.

How do I copy record details from Historical Records?
Information
In Historical Records, you can copy record information and paste it into your word processor.
 
Steps (website)
1.  Perform your search on the Records Search screen.
2. In the View column of the search results, click the Record Details icon (looks like a sheet of lined paper).
3. In the top right portion of the screen, click Tools.
4. In the list that appears, click Copy to Clipboard.
5. Open your word processor, and press the Ctrl and V keys on your keyboard to paste. (On an Apple computer, use Cmd and V instead).


Then you can c&p the record from your word processor document to GR or wherever.

thank you
jst wish i knew why it has changed

I've just experimented, and find that it won't c&p on Firefox (although it always used to), but it will c&p as normal on Microsoft Edge.

I haven't tried it on Family Search, but I have found that highlighting what is on my screen, then pressing CTRL and C simultaneously, and then pressing CTRL V where I want it to paste has worked on several different sites.

It might be worth trying!

Unfortunately, Sylvia, the problem is that the whole record won't highlight.
Only the bits as in Maddie's post at 12:01.

I have some time this afternoon, so I shall try it!

i have sent a message to fs and wiill let you know what they say if i get a reply

i can now get in usig microsoft edge but not using firefox
what a palaver :-)
