Favourites
At the beer festival last weekend when we were discussing how the blogs should handle routes Nick suggested that it would good if the CanalPlan Location insertion button gave you a drop down list of the places on the route for the day you are blogging about. This is a great idea and WILL be implemented.
However thats all well and good if you are writing up entries that are part of a blogged trip. What if you are just writing up an unplanned trip, or a short trip that you haven’t run through CanalPlan?
That is where the Favourites come in. You will be able to maintain a list of “Favourite” Places – this will, by default, include your nominated “home” mooring and you will be able to add other common locations (moorings for pubs etc) that you regularly refer too. You will also have the ability to change the descriptive text for the link (so you don’t have to edit it each time you insert a link).
Work on this functionality is well underway and should be in place within the next couple of weeks.
