Hello,
I am trying to edit/add stops to my latest adventure. I can’t add locations or change them on the main or mobile site.

I am using Safari.

many thanks,

DAO

It still works for me, so there's probably something specific about your trip which will need to be looked at by Peter.

To make certain Peter will look at the right trip: Libyan Adventure is the trip which is giving this problem?

@Peter: I see Error: Input data given to 'selectedTripLines' is not a valid GeoJSON object. in console log for that trip.

I find Safari to be very difficult to use - it won't do some websites that it thinks are unstable or don't have 'permissions' or something. It may just be a problem related to that browser. I use either Chrome or Edge on my cellphone

I am seeing something similar in adding photos. I can type in addresses and the photo uploader recognises them, but when I got to upload I get an error saying I need to select location.

I tried to reproduce but failed. I can see the two buggy locations in your trip, but even after copying the exact structure to my local setup, I couldn't create an error.

My only guess is that perhaps there was some momentary downtime (there was 3 mins or so yesterday). Is the problem still happening?

@Sander - that error message is unrelated, but thanks for pointing it out. It is more or less harmless, but I've got a fix lined up to avoid it either way. Will push that shortly.

@GregW, I'm not quite following this error that you are describing. The selecting of locations for photos happens after uploading so I'm confused about the order you are describing here :)

@Peter - yes, sorry, didn't understand the order in the background. The photos are all uploaded (and strangely some of them did get locations attached). It is when I am entering the location, which comes up fine as a quick selection beneath the box. But when I click on save changes, a red banner comes up saying "Please Select Location" at the top of the screen, and another red banner above the location box that says "Location close".

I can’t edit the locations. I started in Wakefield UK, not Massachusetts (I used to stay there years ago).

I can delete and start over, but cannot change the original location.

Many thanks.

Oh, yes, that's been a limitation for forever. Once a location has been assigned, you can't give it new coordinates.

The thing to do is to add the correct location (i.e. Wakefield, England). Then in the second step of adding it, position it at the correct location in the trip (i.e. change "After London Heathrow Airport" in the second field to "At Start"). And then "Delete Stop" on your wrong Wakefield Massachusetts location.
