Poi Page problem or not

Can somebody check out the Poi submission page, in all cases the ID box is greyed out consequently cannot enter Poi ID to change thus showing error on submitting, looks like page error but then could be my end.

That is how it should be. The "greyed out" boxes are not, and should not, be user edited.

If you hover the mouse over the

it will explain.

If you need to reference an existing POI then use the method of clicking on the POI Icon to display the information just above the map.

Then click on the underlined ID number. This will auto fill all the fields.

This method was brought in because of all the typos in entering numbers in the 3 fields.

Makes no difference Oldboy even if I click on the POi to change it still stays greyed out. believe me i have tried always, and cannot clear the box, it will simply not autofill or accept manual input. even logged out and tried again. but will try again in couple of minutes.

Well managed to change one (I think) now having different problem on second one, Located Poi on map then changed to Hybrid clicked on Poi, then clicked on ID header, hybrid then refresh's and reverts to Map display.
Also note that in both cases have to click twice on ID header, not sure if its me or the site, but would be interesting id anybody else seeing problems, meanwhile will leave till tomorrow befor trying anymore.

Could there be a reason why my submission of Perpignan Rugby Club (USAP) at Latitude: 42.71466715137659 Longitude: 2.8909653425216675 keeps being rejected. I've tried submitting it a few times over the last couple of weeks but I never get an e-mail confirmation nor does it get added to the map. All my other submissions go through OK (e.g. Catalan Dragons just up the road from USAP)

Blame Google for this one - it is there, but for some reason it doesn't show on the map. There are numerous 'spots' in the UK that suffer the same fate.

If you download the (sub)category you will find it is present.

When you submitted a second time I made a mental note to email you - then forgot to do so. Embarassed

My apologies.

Google can be fun at times! There is something somewhere (either in Google's API or maybe a stray apostrophe in our data somewhere nearby) stopping POIs showing in that area.

If you search for 42.71099557492478,2.8911209106445312 then you can see the Rugby club at the top of the map but if you move up slightly then BOOM! all the icons vanish.

I'll look into it to see if I can work out the cause for this area.

OK, this particular issue has been resolved. It was caused by the Google API not liking accented characters on another POI in the area...

Time to go digging to stop it happening as opposed to simply removing a POI!!
