Hi, Richard, I have just noticed when saving a route you have added a Make Private checkbox, that works fine but if I then just go back to the route and then save the route it becomes public again. Thanks.

Oh yes! Fixed; thanks for spotting.
Thanks for the fix. Is it possible to look at something else.When you create a route and save it in a folder, when you go to edit and re-save, the drop down list always says no folder as the 'default' choice, is it possible to put the folder from where the route was located as the 'default' choice so someone could just click save. Thanks.
That should be fixed now.
Thank you.
Thank you both from me too, it is indeed fixed :-)
Ahh,, I've just saved my first route and wanted it to be private, but having noticed that a description would force it to be public unclicked that option, but then forgot to click the private box before saving. There seems to be no way to make a route private again once it is public. Nor does it seem to be possible to delete a route once made public. I really don't want this route public as it would reveal my private address. Please set the privacy tag or delete it (GrosKleinBeeren). Thanks!
You can set it to be private from your ‘Journeys’ page - click ‘My bike’, then ‘Journeys’, then the sunglasses!
Thank you.
Just wonder if a default of "private" might be helpful at that point, especially when refreshing the page after the description box has been unclicked. Not a high priority.
I also think routes should default to private. It is easy to forget to make them private. Accidentally leaving routes private is much better than accidentally leaving them public!
I don’t think there’s a single right answer to this – defaulting to private will lead to issues where people want to share routes with their friends but don’t realise they’re unable to do so. But I’ll have a look at making it a user preference so you can set your own default if you want!
Cheers!
