Managing Route CollectionsFORUMS HOME SEARCH FORUMS

We've implemented a few changes today to make it easier to manage Route Collections, following various suggestions and feedback we've received. Our Route Collections feature enables you to create a collection of related routes that can all be shown together on the same map, e.g. triathlons, multi-day hikes, alternative routes.

The key changes are as follows:

• a new context menu on the My Routes page, with an "Add to collection" option 
  
  
• the My Routes page now allows you to quickly see which collections a route has been added to
  
  
• a direct link to edit a route collection from the My Routes and View Route Collection pages
  
  
• easier route selection when creating a new route collection

If you would like to find about more about Route Collections, take a look at the following How-To Guide: How to show two or more routes on the same map.

....and if you want to edit a route from the list of "my routes" you now need to select the"edit" option from a sub-menu where before you could do this direct from the presented list of routes, more key-clicks on the site that just likes to add to more key-clicks to what should be simple one click functions.

Surely it would not have been too much trouble to have left this option or made the "ID" a hyperlink to edit-mode in the same way you have made the "Route Name" a link to view the route?

Thanks, great. I really like the collection feature, but it has been a little hidden before.

Today I group my routes by tagging by starting point and long/short. I will probably change to or add grouping by collection as this will give the overview directly.

GREAT, Thanks!!!! :)

"the My Routes page now allows you to quickly see which collections a route has been added to"

Is this possible to also add in mobile view?

Yes, thanks Peter, we can look at adding that to the mobile too.

Hi Peter - I've just realised you can already see which collections a route has been added to when you select "Add to Collection". I'm not sure there is a need for another button, or indeed space!

Hi, I meant in the list itself to be able to see if a route is in a collection in the same way as you can see if tags are added, icon and number. I've a lot of space on my small mobile after tag icon.

It would be great to get the overview to be sure that all routes you want is included in a collection. 

Sorry Peter, I'd misunderstood - we'll look at doing that.

Thanks collection icon in route list. It makes it much easier to see if all routes filtered are added to appropriate collection. Perfect.

Great new feature and so user-friendly ! Thanks !

First user- friendly route planner! Thanks, because it's all we want to do......plan/log routes and save them!
