  2. Then, it would be best if you chose how you would like to share your tree by using the tabs at the top of the opened window, such as those mentioned below;
  • Invite link creates an invitation link you can share anywhere and with anyone you want.
  • Email – sends an invitation to the email address that you enter.
  • Username – This lets you enter their username to send an email invitation to their registered email address; here, you do not need to know their email.
  1. If you are creating an invite link, you should skip this step. If not, you must enter the recipient’s email address or username.
  • To invite multiple people at once, click the ‘Add another email/user option’.
  • To invite a circle – click on the ‘Username’ field and then choose a circle to invite from the given drop-down menu. Now, if you see a list of saved logins instead of your list of circles, then you can click on the username field again.
  1. Next, in the ‘Role‘ menu, you have to choose which role you want the person to have, such as;
  • Guests – this views and adds comments; however, they cannot view living people automatically.
  • Contributors – they get to view and add comments, photos and stories. However, they cannot edit or remove existing tree content or consider living people automatically.
  • Editors – here, you can view living people automatically, remove and edit existing content, and add people, records, comments, photos and stories.
  1. Furthermore, if you send a link, you should choose the ‘Create Link copy link’ option. And if you are shipping an email, you can include a message and select ‘Send Invites’. When someone accepts your invitation, you will see your tree appearing under the ‘Trees’ tab in their account.

How do you accept a tree invitation?

The process for removing a tree shared with you

Browser

  1. You must first click on the ‘Trees’ tab and then select the ‘Create and Manage Trees’ option.
  2. After that, just above your list of trees, click on the ‘Trees Shared with Me‘ option.

  4. Finally, when you finish the above, click the OK button.

All about troubleshooting:

Solution 1 – Are you seeing a message stating, ‘An invitation you sent wasn’t received’?

Well, if so, from your tree, right in the toolbar on the left side, you should click the ‘More (the three dots) icon and select ‘Tree Settings’. After that, you must select the ‘Invitations’ tab and ensure that the email address or username you entered is correct. If correct, you should select the ‘Reinvite’ option in the ‘Tools’ column. If you have sent the invitation using their username, it will go to the email address they registered with Ancestry. Moreover, you could also try and use another email address if their first one (or their username) does not work.

Solution 2 – ‘You did not receive an invitation someone sent to you’?

You should ensure that the person sending you the invitation has your email address or username correct. If they do, you can contact Ancestry directly to see if Ancestry might have been blocked from sending an email to your address.

After going through the above information and process, you should be satisfied and ready to manage the Sharing Ancestry Family Tree.
