    What instructions are needed ,as far as i can see it is easy peasy territory ,just read what it asks for, job done first time,  no instructions needed
    The more i read, the more i am certain it is 90% a user problem.

    Glad you found the number you wanted. You could actually have typed “CAMC Ashbourne” as a Google search and got the answer in a millisecond.

    By the clubs response to the points raised it NOT a user problem.  The club clearly acknowlege that the new system has numerous problems. Try search for a CL near Bridlington with hook up, hardstanding and good reviews.  I wish you luck in a seach which would have taken me seconds on the old system.

    Thank you for comment about using Google, there are a number of Cl's near Ashbourne it would seem pointless to use Google when the club site should supply the information on all the sites near Ashbourne.  I repeat, try seaching for a CL near Bridlington with a hardstanding and hook up on Google.

    Where has the club admitted it has numerous problems ? All i see is a few minor problems which people are making in to major problems 
    With such a complex system problems  with the soft ware should be expected 
    From what i can see compared to many newly launched software packages ,the IT people have done a good job 
    For god sake give it a chance

    But the Club had a queuing system at the ready so obviously expected a rush.  I have had no problems getting into the systems for the last few days.

    No, not a user problem. As I have said before the CL search facility is much worse.

    For those trying to search for a CL, try clicking on "Show Certificated Location" before you search in the "Book a campsite". As TMTO says easy if you know how and I agree it is not easy for all those not too used to using software.

    It will show Club site in a county first but you do get the CL list. Unfortunately "Hide Club sites" is not an option and I agree the filters are rubbish. They don't reflect what most of us look for. What exactly is meant by Motorhome Friendly???

    Google is good. “CAMC Bridlington” gives nine CLs in the area in a flash - all details of each of them are there.

    I think there is a lot of user problem hja, its certainly not all down to poor functionality.

    Dear Eurotraveller,  Many thanks for your great advice regarding serching for a details of a CL and its reviews using Google rather than the club portal.  It's the way I will browse in the future.  Other members need to realise that your advice is the best way to find a good CL with the right facilities that a regular CL user requires.  It's a pity that the club seems to have forgotten the needs of a basic CL search facility for it's members when signed into the club site, it's still there but seems it can only be found using Google.

    You can do eactly the same with the Clubs "Book a campsite" search. Right click on image to open in a new tab.

    peedee,

    Just tried your solution again and it didn't work having tried a number of times today.  Which is why I raised the subject on this forum just like a number of other club members.

    The simplest way is to type CAMC and a location into Google.  It takes you straight into all the CL's in the chosen area, no ticking of boxes or getting a list of options offered on the club booking page.  Especially the promotion of the clubs own sites, which I don't use.

    I'm using my windows 10 desktop and it works fine for me. Got to log off for a while but I will also try it on my Android tablet later and report.

    I think the booking demo video would have been useful to see before the new booking site was launched but at least it's here now. Desktop version.

    I don't have a laptop.

    Lots of people don't .

    When I log onto the web address on my tablet, " this" is what a calendar looks like.

    note the days do not line up with the dates. 🤔

    Thoughts?

    The calendar works OK on my iPad. I assume they haven’t tested compatibility on all  devices

    If only programming of software, was as simple as that 
    Your solution is totally unworkable, it would mean running two separate systems, which are totally independent to one another

    "as far as I can see" you must be short sighted then. You must  belive the vast majority on here with genuine concern regarding the new booking system shortfalls are technology illiterate imbeciles.

    wedgy do not try reason with the posters as their modus operandi will always be the opposite to what nearly all other posters find with any threadundecided
