**** DRAFT / CONCEPT / IN DEVELOPMENT ****

Hi guys

Please could I have some feedback on a new design I have for the calendar which I've been working on recently.

Note that it is FAR from finished and you can expect to see errors and buggy behaviour.

I'm only looking for feedback on the general idea/layout and specifically on mobile phones. Can your phone load it ok? Can you scroll the map around? Can you open events?

Thanks

Matt

Oooooh Matt that's fancy 😉😀.

I can both scroll the map and open and close events. On my mobile phone.

No idea why but these links still don't open a page fir me so I just have to copy and paste the link..... But that's easy I just do that.

Suzi, you probably have a popup blocker enabled. You should disable it.

Sandi, check your date range

On the map I see Sandi, there are loads of bikes all over the map at various locations and when you click on a bike it opens all the event information 😊

The link works for me, and I can see the bikes etc. However when trying to move the map around I have to zoom in massively to obtain the location and event detail, which then doesn't display in its entirety. I'm using android mobile, I rarely use my laptop anymore.

Is there a need for this as a map is already shown on the event listing anyway? I usually check out the event and then click on the map to ensure I know where I'm going and the distance.

JP - Old calendar not possible, sorry. No way. This is better anyhow - now you can select your date range and see WHERE they all are happening.

Lindsay, the map on the event page is static and you would have to open ALL events one by one, then click the map link to Google one by one, just to know where they all are. This new page I'm making puts all the info into one page for you

I might make it so you can switch between text list and map view

I don't understand why it's not clear.... so you can see WHERE things are.
A long text list of events isn't handy if you don't know where all the places are. Visually seeing them on a map really helps
