[image] This is a traditional project. That map used to show all the obs IN the project. Does not matter whether I turn ‘featured obs’ on or off – it only shows a few obs. The only active option is to show – all obs across iNat. What has changed ? Or what can I change ? https://www.inaturalist.…

[image] The green dots are yesterday. The red ones are last week. But where are all the previous hikes hidden ? One reason why I made the project was to have a record of our usual routes – where we go in a given season to see that. Yesterday for Pauridia capensis – found a first one. And hoping …

[image] This used to be the default display, which I can still see – but must first click thru to obs and then choose Map.

I just noticed this on my traditional projects, too. The map on the front page used to show all the observations in the project, and now it only shows a few (perhaps the 24 in the grid of Recent Observations?) I don’t know when this change occurred, but I don’t like it.

I would at least like a toggle on the map – on the front page – to display all obs in this project. I presume it is easier on the servers to display less. But then I would be happy if the default map was blank, and we were prompted to choose what we want to display, this time.

Is this an intentional change, or a bug, @tiwane ? If intentional, can you explain the rationale, please? If a bug, can you please move it to Bug Reports? Thanks!

@tiwane Asking again as I just noticed a post from you elsewhere so you must be around!

The second project only has 126 obs. Maybe there is a cutoff number ? Or date ?

I just checked one of my Traditional Projects with 17k+ observations and it has the same “recent observations only” issue
