Editing records

There are two ways in which you can modify your already submitted records.

From the right hand column: Latests sightings

On the right hand column as you enter those following the add sightings on this locality or add a precise sighting path (see section 3. Submitting records “Step 3/3: Transmit my sighting”). The list shows your last 30 submitted observations, under each site and date. To edit a record click on the pencil and to delete use the bin (see image 20). When selecting to edit a record, you get a short summary of the observation and three tabs from where to modify the data: picture and sound, data and site (see image 21).

If you choose a record that belongs to a list (for example records entered at Roc de l’Alemany in image 20), you have further options at the bottom of the summary. Click the bin with a pen to delete the full list, or click the pen with plus sign (+) to add a new record to the list. There is also one more tab to allow you to modify details for the full list: Modify the form (see image 24). Any changes you make under the Modify the form or Edit place tabs will apply to the whole list.

From the left hand column: All my observations

It is also possible to modify your observations by going to All my observations on the left hand column of the screen (see image 25). Click on the icons next to each record: bin to delete, pen to modify. If they are part of a list, you can also delete the full list (icon bin with pen). Pacing your mouse on top of each icon, you will see too which action they correspond. When editing, you will be taken to image 24.
