I was looking through the Local pages and the HelpThing pages for Local, and I had some questions about things that may have changed and things that are unclear.
The main help page for Local says this, about setting your location: "If you want to show your location on your profile, viewable by all LibraryThing members, check the 'Use in profile' box."
As far as I can tell, there's no longer a "use for profile" box. So location-setting on profile and Local are mostly separate now: your profile location can affect your Local location if you don't have the latter set, but changes to your Local location never affect your profile. Is that right?
The Local Members page ( http://www.librarything.com/local/members ), it says, "This only shows members who make their location public." I think that means "members who make their location public on their profile," and that's what the HelpThing page says. Is there any chance of getting the main Local Members page updated to clarify that?
