Trip reporting issue inverting images
It is most frustrating that the website inverts pictures sometimes and there is no recourse. Not sure what can be done about this but it would make filing trip reports faster and easier if the system worked more smoothly and without frustrating glitches like this. Also, improved support for smart phones would be nice so things worked more smoothly on these devices. Many of us don't use computers much anymore and it's frustrating when you have to turn your phone sideways to see the full contents of a field or for an onscreen button to work.
1 voteThank you Doug for sharing this feedback/idea. I have taken a look at your most recent trip report and saw the inverted photograph. Once a photo is 'loaded' upside down, there is no way in the website to flip the photo. I was able to download the photo, flip it, and re-upload it which worked but ideally the photo should not flip upon load. To help me understand what may be going on with the initial load (and see if we can prevent such a use case in the future), can you share the original photo you uploaded for me to test with?

"Subscribing To" or "Liking" a Newly Posted Activity To Receive Updates About It
The activity email notification is great but often times it notifies me of activities that have been posted but are not open for registration.
It would be great if I, as a hopeful participant, am notified about an activity I'd like to register for at some point. If I could "like it" or show interest by "subscribing" to the activity that way I can get updates if anything changes regarding the activity (e.g., roster fills, registration date changes, trip cancelled, etc.). The number of "likes" or "subscribers" could be visible on the activity page to notify other participants of levels…

POST THE TIME OF EVENT PRIOR TO SIGN UP
So many activities don't have a time posted for when the event starts. I have to wait till I get an email to see the time and then have to cancel if I'm not available. Why is this happening?

Thank you for reaching out with your idea! I had a quick clarifying question - are you referring to Mountaineer's Events or Mountaineer's Activities? If you could share an example that would be helpful!

Show leader notes again when requesting leader permission
Many times, people don't read leader notes when requesting leader permission.
Perhaps the leader notes could be shown again when requesting leader permission to ensure that people read them.
The leader notes may contain additional pertinent information about the activity which participants should consider when requesting permission, or may contain specific requests for information, so requests missing this information end up being incomplete.

Leader permission requests should go to co-leaders and mentored leaders as well
Currently, even if an activity with leader permission has a co-leader who is an admin and a contact, that person does not receive leader permission request emails.
The same would apply for mentored leaders.

Rate Hike Preferences
I get daily emails describing upcoming Mountaineers hikes but for the most part they are too challenging or too long for me. I joined GoHike this year to find out about shorter hikes. I prefer hikes that are less than 10 miles. I think if would be great to be able to choose in preferences: Hikes less than 10 miles or Hikes greater than 10 miles/ strenuous.
