How do I...? and other questions

Description

Post here if you have any questions about using the site that are not covered in the 'how to' guide.

Regular recording site

Submitted by Nicksand on

Apologies if this has been covered before.  I am entering my years moth records via the moths "sub page," after each set of records for a particular date I then go to the "where was it" tab and each time am offered a list of options from the drop down menu, for some reason I have ended up with several sites logged under the same name (maybe with slightly differing grid references), is there a way to consolidate these into just one site.  The records are for an MV trap in our garden.

"The taxon must be specified"

Submitted by OliverRat on

I'm trying to submit a casual record of a social wasp. Date, location, etc., all seem to be ok, but when I try to specify the taxon (a) I do not see a drop-down list when I start typing, (b) after entering 'Dolichovespula *' and clicking Submit, I get the general error message "The data could not be saved", and the error "The taxon must be specified" under the Taxon text box.

Error message submitting records at several places on one date

Submitted by Clavigesta on

I'm repeatedly getting an error message when I try the above and lose everything I have put in. The last one said "The data could not be saved. Validation errors occurred when this form was submitted ... The spatial reference must be supplied (related to attribute ) ...  (related to attribute )"

I'll have to get round it by submitting a separate list for each grid ref.

 

 

Storing information about your site from another sourse

In 2004 my site, Tackley Heath, was designated an "Oxfordshire Wildlife Site" and under these auspices a survey of the wildlife was carries out. Is it possible to upload the report of that survey to the Tackley Heath iRecord site for information?

How do I synchronise my activity across the web browser and app versions of iRecord?

Submitted by doug@consultin… on

Hi folks. Currently both sets of my records look completely different. The records I upload on the web browser don't appear on the iPhone app, and vice versa. Is there a way to sync all my sightings across the two platforms please?
