Ok I'm on a roll today. Something else that's been asked for a lot... the ability to find people near you with the same bike. So now you have it. Click on Full Search and enter some text into the "bike" box. Don't be too specific though... putting "Honda CBR1100XX Super Blackbird" will NOT give you results for people who've just put "Blackbird" or only put "CBR1100". Simply search for CBR or Blackbird to get the results you need. If you put a space or comma then you can add additional words... both words must be in the person's profile for the profile to be returned in the results

Wheely they haven't got access to your address mate and most peeps have their bike pic on their profile anyway

yea it works fine, make sure u put a good distance in and don't be too specific with the kind of bike ur searching for. I don't think it's a security risk... you shouldn't be putting photos on ur profile with your registration visible anyhow. And your address isn't available, so I don't see what the problem is. It's something that's been asked for (a lot) so people can create their own local group for the kind of bike they have

The search works a treat Matt but you can only search for Males OR Females so cannot see all in one go. Change radio button to drop-down with Males, Females, Both ???

Sounds good, I'll do that tomorrow (bedtime now). If u use the Browse profiles, click on an area, edit the URL (the postcode and miles) and that will show all male and female (temporary workaround for u)

i know, it's great that I've created every line of code by hand - I know how to manipulate the site without even checking the scripts lol.
