Accessing the Locations List

To modify the additional location data, first you'll need to access the Locations listing page.

Click on the 'GeoType' icon in the toolbar on the left. [ Figure 1 ]

Entering Additional Location Data

From the Locations list [ Figure 2 ], click on the name of a particular location.

The example below [ Figure 3 ] uses the 'Iceland' location as an example. Obviously, depending on the scope of the location, not all of these fields may be used, but some (such as the thumbnail or rating) may be universally relevant.




Fill in any (or all) fields; click 'Make Changes' to save.
