Wouldn't it be convenient if you could arrange profiles by distance from you when browsing them instead of just within specific postcodes. It would be nice to say, limit searches to within a 50 mile radius if that's how far you're able to travel.
Just a thought!!! |

"You can already do this with advanced search."
I noticed you can search on [partial] postcode but there is no distance setting. Is that for paid members only? |

Same as me then.
"

This doesn't seem to do a distance search, just match a postcode. So for instance if you type in "LS" it will match all postcodes starting with LS. Not people within x miles of LS.
[to admin]
You can use Google geocode API to get the latitude longitude of a postcode, then simple trig will get you the distance as the crows fly. Although the API only allows 1000 calls per day for the free account, so would need to keep a record and only request new postcodes!  |

The list that comes up shows first the people in your area move down the list and it shows people a little further awat etc |

I don't think it works like that. I just searched for the first 4 characters of my postcode and within the results I got some people in Swindon, then some people in Chippenham (approx 20 miles away) then some more people in Swindon, then Corsham, then back to Swindon, etc... etc... etc... |
