Description of problem (please provide a set of steps we can use to replicate the issue, and make as many as you need.):
Our local chapter of the Texas Master Naturalists are hosting the CNC for our county. Our computer uploaded observations are not making it into the collection project. App observations (iPhone and Android both) are showing up in real time with no problem. I’ve seen other forum postings saying the problem has to do with location circles. What does this mean and how can I teach a county-full of completely new users how to fix this? It is preventing anyone with camera photos (especially birds) from contributing to the project.
