Notifications that can't be acknowledged

Submitted by stephentyrrell… on

Hi,

I've had a notification in my inbox here for a couple of months that won't go away when I hit "Acknowledge this list of notifications". I just get the following error message:

Array ( [error] => Validation error [code] => 2003 [errors] => Array ( => form_error_messages.source_type.default ) )

I had hoped that getting another notification might help to clear it, but now I've just got 2 notifications sitting there! Anything that can be done...?

 

Redirecting records to the right geogrpaphical area

Submitted by JudyW on

I have found a few records have come through for me to verify which have been automatically flagged as incorrect because they are outside my geographical location.  However, the records are correct (photo included) for the area concerned - just incorrect for the area I monitor.  is there any way I can redirect them to the right geographical area - I don't want to make them as incorrect when they aren't.

Thank you!

How do I set an accurate vice-county for a record?

Submitted by A G Duff on

Forgive me if this has already been covered in this or another forum.

I found an insect close to the boundary between VC 8 (South Wilts.) an VC9 (Dorset). The six-figure grid reference is interpreted by iRecord as being in VC 9 / 8 whereas I know that it came from VC 8. The record was uploaded from a spreadsheet using the field Vice County (supplied) set to 8 - this field is ignored. I tried editing the record and setting the field Vice County to 8 but this edit was also ignored.
