Activity with duplicate name

Submitted by matpip@hotmail.com on

I've just set up an activity for Worcestershire Bat Group (WBG) records. But whenever someone tries to add that activity to 'my activities' or enter a record they get the following message: "The group you are trying to join has a duplicate name with another group so cannot be joined in this way." Someone who tried this showed me a screenshot of what seems to be a very old WBG 'group' (we have not idea when or who set it up) but I can't for the life of me find 'groups' under 'activities', so I can't see the details.

Adding hundreds of records from multiple sites

Submitted by ahankinson@lan… on

Hi, I have multiple plant records from multiple sites which were recorded using a 100x100m grid with centroid survey points which leaves me with almost 1000 survey points each with multiple species recorded. 

Is there a way to import all records in one using a spreadsheet? If so how do I go about doing this and what format / information would the spreadsheet need? 

Thanks,
Andy
