There has, I suspect, been a change to the format on member’s observations pages. It used to be a simple list that showed all their observations, with details of where, and whether it had been IDed or not. Now it pulls up a map with annoying pop-ups, and applies any filters that you happen to use on…

Ah! Thanks, that’s much better - still applies my filters, but at least my ADHD is not being bombarded by all the pop-ups on the map…lolz

I agree about those automatic map pop-ups. I like being able to click on a map observation and see the pop-up, but when they automatically appear, it takes cognitive overhead and real clicks to work around. I’d like to be able to turn that off somehow.

Thing is I don’t have that filter set for my own observations and I remember someone mentioning that new link has it but it wasn’t intentional? Is it possible to make a place filter constant? I don’t quite understand what steps to do to recreate place filtering, I try and even the other page with m…

I have had mine on for so long, I can’t remember how I originally set it. I will try to look for the setting.

[Capture] Found it! I overlooked it the first time, so good thing I double-checked.

Ah! Never tried using this, thank you!

If I understand the map issue, you could open Edit Observations from your Home page instead of Observations. That’s a simple list with an accompanying smaller map in the sidebar. The filters being applied when you open another user’s page is annoying for sure.

Same here…and this is what it automatically applies when I look at another person’s observations page. [IN]
