How to link to a correct name when there are unresolved homonyms #162

Closed marekborowiec closed 6 years ago

marekborowiec commented 8 years ago

I'm facing the following problem.

I noticed that in the list of synonyms for Cerapachys longitarsus 434999 there is a name Cerapachys bicolor. Clicking on it takes you to taxon Cerapachys bicolor 434909, which is incorrect. The link should be to Cerapachys bicolor 434910, which is an unresolved homonym. However, when I'm trying to correct is by inserting a name from the drop-down list, it does not give me taxon ids, only the names, and so I'm only able to link to the wrong bicolor.

@marekborowiec Added in #350. Now the dropdown uses IDs, so you can pick the correct one (or even enter an ID).
