11th November 2025 — Support For Walk Cancellation Part 2 #17

build 357 — commit 4a2bc6b

Note that this change applies only to sites that have Local Walk Population. Cancelling a walk is different to deleting a walk as it still appears on NGX-Ramblers and Walks Manager, but is marked as cancelled with a cancellation reason. The reason for choosing a cancellation option is that a walk may have been previously advertised on the local group NGX website as well as Walks Manager, so members may be planning to turn up to attend the walk. The purpose of the cancellation status is to clearly communicate that the walk is no longer going ahead with an indication as to why the cancellation was necessary.

Prior to this release, only Upload to Ramblers was supported. However, now there are 4 Walk Export scenarios supported:

• Upload to Ramblers
• Delete from Ramblers (but walk stays on NGX-site)
• Cancel
• Uncancel

In all cases, the above steps are accessed via the walk edit page in Related Links → Ramblers frame as can be seen in the screenshot below:
