Notifications sent by email not showing on website

Hi, I have received some notifications by email recently, including two where the verifier was able to identify plants I couldn't identify.  None of these recent notifications appears on the "my notifications tab".  Should they?  And is there a way of asking a follow up question?

I can't find the name of a beetle I have seen on the iRecord database

Submitted by NigelDownes on

I believe I have seen a Speckled longhorn beetle, Pachytodes cerambyciformis whilst on holiday in Wales, a couple of photos & references on the internet of sightings in the UK but I can't find on iRecord to record my observation using common name, binomial name or wildcard. Any suggestions?

Changing or adding an activity to existing records

I want to add some existing records to an activity, and also change some wrongly attributed records to the correct activity (oops, butterfingers!)
I see from previous comments that it's not possible to do this via editing.  
My plan was to download a batch of records, delete them, and then upload the spreadsheet with the correct activity edited into it.
