more stuff:
Boeing 737-800 for some entries 738 for other entries (for example). Have you standardized aircraft yet?

"Top 10 Aircrafts"
Should be "Top 10 Aircraft"

My top ten in order are - huh?

The update looks good, it is easier and quicker to enter data and on my computer, the speed of page access and drawing is at least multiply by 2 to 3. So good work

Agree about that, the auto-completion is not great. In airport typing FRA does not retrieve Frankfurt.

Thanks for the suggestions! Will do my best to answer all your comments.

It's now working. The system built is actually working, except in some cases when two or more airlines share the same IATA code (this was the case for Finnair, because Flybe Nordic was incorrectly (?) registered as having the 'AY' IATA code as well). For the moment I then decided to leave the airline field blank in this case, but I might instead decide to "autoselect" the first result which appears (the selection will then be wrong sometimes). I'm still not sure which solution is better. Any idea?

This is a problem similar to one flagged by another user on this thread that I haven't been able to reproduce so far. I will try to investigate a bit further on the origin of the problem.

You're right. In the data page, the column selection was actually temporary and reseted every time the page was refreshed. Now that I've added a better permanent solution, I've remove the selection of the columns from the data table. In the settings page, I've decided to only show for the moment only the columns that are less frequently used, but might add some more columns during the next few days (such as the departure and arrival time).

I've been implementing the premium economy option this morning already. I will test a bit more this new feature this afternoon, to make sure everything's fine.

These two issues are actually related. I don't know exactly why yet, but it seems that the aircraft name was not saved correctly when you (and other users) imported their flights. I've just fixed it in the database and will investigate to avoid having this problem in the future again.

Nice, I didn't know this company. Thanks! However I will first look into it in details before starting any action: the last thing that I want is to see the website made inaccessible because of a certificate issue. First I focus on correcting the bugs that are reported, and once the version 2 stable enough I will look into it.

Noted and added on my todo list. Problem is that it's something which will keep me busy for a while, since I need to update the sizes and then check that everything's fine on different screen sizes.

Nice idea as well. I kind of like the pie charts (as you might have guessed ) but this is something I will keep in mind and think about once the version 2 stable enough as well.

I've set the maximum width of the website to 1200px. The version 1 didn't have this restriction and didn't look really good on large screens, so unfortunately, this is not something that's going to change.

I tried typing FRA and it seems that Frankfurt was successfully retrieved (in sixth or seventh position, however). I could easily make the search much more efficient by displaying only the results which have an IATA code matching the 3 letters introduced, but I thought it was nice to be able to search for airports by typing their name directly as well (especially if you don't know the IATA).

Cheers!

I guess this boils down to personal matters and I can see your point. Personally I really prefer that typing the IATA code means an airport is there first in the list. This is what most flight booking engine, search engine, Flightaware, etc ... do. I am fairly happy with those as they match to IATA, City name code (TYO for Tokyo) and full name, and present the list in a smart way that usually what you want is at the top.

thegrailer

Here is what happens when typing in airport codes - can't determine if this was answered above () -- should ORD be near the top or do I need to start by typing C H I C A G O for Chicago and then ORD will appear?

Also, more kudos for the improvements. I like ^^^

Cheers

What mountain is in the pic on the personal charts page?

One more request/question: Is there anyway to leave part of the date blank? I flew decades ago where I remember the route and airline but only the year (maybe month too). Back then I flew once/twice a year and those trips stayed in my memory (as opposed to now where it's C1-C2 twice in a week). I also have old DL data that shows posting date rather than travel date - so I have the correct year, maybe the month, but not the day.



Cheers -

Hi,

As suggested, I've decided to change a bit the search system for the airports. Now, when you type your three letters the following happens :
1) If the letters match an IATA code in the database, only the result having this IATA is displayed (meaning that typing 'ORD' only displays Chicago as a single result)
2) If no match is found, then the system searches for matches in the database according to the name and the location of the airport.
Hopefully this will solve some problems

I've got no idea which is the mountain on the picture, this is actually a generic picture coming from the images bank Shutterstock

No, for the moment you can't leave any part of the date blank. It would be a great addition, but not possible for me to implement right now since I'm focused on different tasks and since it would require to change many parts of the code... Added to my todo list, to be done over the next few weeks, along with the possiblity to import flights from Tripit.

Awesome --- for the reply alone. Doubly awesome that you listen to the users.

Looks like I will have lots of flights on the first of the month lol ---


Thanks

Cheers

Hi guys! Some quick news about what's been going on during the last few days on Logmyflight.

1. Since English is not my primary language, I've got an American friend currently busy browsing the website to make some corrections. If you spot something, don't hesitate to let me know as well, as this definitely helps a lot.
2. As suggested by some users already, I've just bought a SSL certificate to increase the security throughout the website, by moving it to the HTTPS protocol. Hopefully, I will be able to set up this certificate sometime this week or early next week.
3. It's now possible to leave a public when modifying a flight.
4. As promised, it's now also possible to add some flights even though you don't remember the complete date of the flight (when you choose the date of the flight, you can stop after selecting the year or the month, if you don't remember the exact day, for example). I still need to test a bit more this feature, but it should already be working for everyone.

Cheers!

EDIT : the SSL certificate has now been installed on the server. You can now access Logmyflight more securely using the following url : https://www.logmyflight.net. See you there!

Hello -----

I like the way the site is running. Now if only I had time to enter older flights

Cheers --

logmyflight

Thank you for your support, it means a lot to me

I got to say I don't have the same problem as you have. I've haven't travelled this much so time is not really an issue. The hard part consists in searching in all the emails and files kept over the years to find some data to add to my flights... Not an easy task!

By the way, here are some of the features I've been working on since the last update :

• First of all, I've hired an English native speaker for a few hours and he corrected most of the grammar/vocabulary mistakes throughout the website. It should look (a bit ) more professional now.
• I've also created a blog, in which I'm going to put the major updates and milestones of the website. You can keep in touch by accessing it here : https://www.logmyflight.net/blog
• As required by different users, it is also now possible to modify some data of your flights directly from the data table, without having to access to the "modify" page. This is a feature reserved for the first class members though (at least at first).
• Finally, I've just added today in the "more" page a new map showing the flights currently taken by members of the website.

As always, I'm quite busy with all of this but any suggestion is more than welcome

thegrailer

The "modify selected flight" button at the bottom of the page doesn't seem to work -- just noticed that.

Cheers

logmyflight

I'm not really sure to see what you mean. I've just checked and it seems that both "modify selected flight" buttons are working? (for both the previous and future flights table, I mean). What do you mean by "it's not working"? Thanks!
