I’m going to be writing a series of posts on various aspects of the new Route Planner. Today’s a simple one… how to share a route with your friends.The first thing to do is to create a route, and save it. Once you’ve saved it, you can then click on the Tools button and select “Route Information and Sharing”. In this release, all this gives you is a URL which you can copy and paste into emails, on your blog, or a forum. Here’s one of mine:<\/p>\n

http:\/\/www.marengo-ltd.com\/map2\/index.php?route=45<\/a><\/p>\n

You might want to consider starting the route from a public place, rather than your front door, if you are going to make a route public. Just to avoid unexpected visitors :) – I’ve done that with this route – it starts at the Richmond Gate in Richmond Park.<\/p>\n

In case you are wondering, anyone<\/strong> can view this route by clicking on the URL you provide. They don’t need to be signed up to the Marengo Route Planner. They can save it as a GPX too, and therefore use your route on their GPS unit. What they can’t do, however, is change it (unless they want to manually edit the GPX file).<\/p>\n

If you come across someone’s route (such as mine above) and you ARE a logged-in subscriber, you will be able to change it, and save it, but it will save as one of YOUR routes. So you can change it without worrying about messing up someone else’s route.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
