Hi. Thanks for your reply.
I’ve doubled checked this by creating places on both my own and a test account. The places only show in the users own profile, bit they don’t show if another user goes to the places tab, even if they have allowed the site to use the current location. It just shows no places found, use a different filter.
I thought it may be a template or plugin issue so have tried it with no plugins and the standard buddy press template but get the same result.
Maybe there is something else that I’m missing?
