Brett we seriously need an option to edit our post and to be able to delete double post. I have to make a whole new post if I want to be able to correct something I did or said in a previous post.

Yeah, it's on the list for sure. The list is long though. I have to add photo uploads, tags, and all kinds of other things.

The reason that feature isn't higher on the list is because it's easier to simply proofread what you've written before submitting it than it is to submit it, then proofread it, then edit it, then submit it again. With the other features that are missing, there are no other ways to work around them so I want to get them up and running as quickly as I can.

Proofreading a post can easily be done before submitting it. Also, I can quickly and easily edit anyone's posts because of admin functions I've built in for myself so for now I'm able to handle it.

But that feature is on the list. It just isn't the highest priority right now.

BMI:

Body mass index (BMI)

BMI is a formula that uses weight and height to estimate body fat. For most people, BMI provides a reasonable estimate of body fat. The BMI's biggest weakness is that it doesn't consider individual factors such as bone or muscle mass. BMI may:

  • Underestimate body fat for older adults or other people with low muscle mass
  • Overestimate body fat for people who are very muscular and physically fit

It's quite common, especially for men, to fall into the "overweight" category if you happen to be stronger than average. If you're pretty strong but in good shape then pay no attention.

Dm:

Dispatcher, Fleet Manager, Driver Manager

The primary person a driver communicates with at his/her company. A dispatcher can play many roles, depending on the company's structure. Dispatchers may assign freight, file requests for home time, relay messages between the driver and management, inform customer service of any delays, change appointment times, and report information to the load planners.

OOS:

When a violation by either a driver or company is confirmed, an out-of-service order removes either the driver or the vehicle from the roadway until the violation is corrected.
