Hi Sam,
Thanks for bringing this up.
I hadn't thought about the "Latest News" on the homepage, which is indeed outdated.
This was addressed in the messages of this topic, but the article on the homepage remains.
I'll send this to the team right away.
All the best,
Julien
Hi Julien,
Good to see the issue fixed.
w.r.t. the future of plotaroute perhaps updating the announcement on the home page which currently states "that there will be no further developments on the Plotaroute website" which when combined with taking over a month to address bugs in major premium features that users are paying for and you will see why it feels like it is being abandond.
Hi Graham,
Regarding your question about the future of Plotaroute, you can find the most up-to-date information on this topic.
TLDR: "Our goal is not to abandon Plotaroute, but rather to explore how the best features from each platform can enhance the overall experience for all users."
All the best,
Julien
Hi everyone,
I just updated this topic.
Garmin sync should be working again!
The devs confirmed the link between the security measures added after the recent bot crawling attacks and the Garmin issue.
Thanks again for your patience.
All the best,
Julien
Is it official that they are planning to stop plotaroute? Is there a date for it to finish?
I use it as it's the only one I could find that allows you to join segments together & trace routes.
In the meantime, you can either create a route in the Garmin Connect app (bit rubbish as it uses Google maps which doesn't highlight/recognise footpaths), do the same in Garmin Connect web version but change map type to OpenStreetMap to see paths as well as roads, or continue using plotaroute and download the route as a .gpx file and then import to Courses in Connect web version.
Hi everyone,
I'm very sorry for the late reply.
The devs are aware of this issue and are looking into it right now.
I’ll be sure to update you on this topic as soon as I receive any news from them.
Thank you all for your patience.
Kind regards,
Julien
Yes - I am beginning to 'toy' with RWGPS. I have subscribed to Plot a Route as a paying guest for 10 years.
Viserando holds no appeal - and the home page is all about WALKING!
I guess they really do want everyone to move over to visorando with its worse interface, lack of garmin connection, and generally less functionality, so they are slowly doing everything they can to kill of plotaroute. I know I won't bother renweing my premium subscription when it comes round again...
I have also discovered I can now only download routes on my PC/ web.
I will normally do 'everything' on iPad and phone so this is inconvenient and when I am away on long distance tour would cause me serious hassle.
No such problems with RWGPS......
There seems to be an absence of reaction by admin to previous alerts regarding these major problems. Please ???
