I’d like to share my FamilyEcho tree with others while showing birth dates for the individuals in the tree. I’ve already enabled the “Show birth dates” option in my own view via the Options menu.

However, when I click on Share, I don’t see any option to include or exclude birth dates in the link that’s generated. And when someone else opens the shared link, birth dates (and possibly other details that I have enabled) are turned off by default—even though they’re visible on my end.

All of the option settings are saved in cookies on your browser. There is no mechanism for setting them for an entire tree. But all of the informatin is there. You would just have to tell them to click on options and turn on whatever you (or they) want to turn on.
