Description of problem (please provide a set of steps we can use to replicate the issue, and make as many as you need.):
Step 1: I successfully created a new place called “Thung Khai Botanic Garden” a nature reserve in the south of Thailand.
Step 2: When I go to that place via the drop-down menu “More” → “Place” → “Find a place”, it says “No species have been listed for this place yet!”, even though I have many verified observations there.
I may be wrong, but I think you have to manually create a Check List for the place for the Species list to populate. If you view the Observations tab (next to the Species list), you can see the observations there.
@pttrsn, I have never manually created a checklist for a place, and my Places do capture the observations inside the place. I’m not sure what the problem is here, but I don’t think that’s it.
Under the observation tab, I do get all the observations, but nothing under the species tab. I tried to create a cheklist as explained by pttrns, but without success.
the title of the thread is a little misleading. the issue you’re seeing is not related to observations. it’s more related to taxa in the checklist.
When I first posted the message I hadn’t realised I could obtain a list of the observations of the place I had created. In fact, going through the place filter in the exploration section I’ll get everything that I need: species and observations, which I hadn’t realised I could do.
Thanks for your help.
