This absolutely is NOT stuff we should discuss on the user forum.

As far as I am aware this correspondence was never addressed to the user
forum.
It was addressed only to subsurface at subsurface-divelog.com

AHHHH. No, that's not what we do just yet.

Ferguson is a bit slow to understand. Apologies for unnecessary discourse.

I was concerned that the + button has no function. But I now realise it is
*not* a clickable button at all but only an indicator. Problem solved.

That match is by name, not by distance. I'm a bit confused what you are

See the attached image. The list at the bottom has no relation to the dive
site. My only point was that this is probably not helpful at all and
extremely confusing to the general user. This is
compounded by the heading that says: Dive sites at same coordinates. I
would expect
that this list would only include other previous dive sites at Durban??

Kind regards,
