Hi! I noticed something strange with the number of members shown for each city while using "find members > browse countries" in order to find a host. Usually less profiles than stated appear.
Random example: I look for members in Colmar, France. Browsing by countries to the region of Alsace I see there are 8 BW members there:
http://www.bewelcome.org/places/FR/Alsace
But following the link to Colmar I see only 6 profiles:
http://www.bewelcome.org/places/FR/Alsace/Colmar
Where are the two missing? Are they frozen/deleted? Or is there a counting bug? I thought it could be a privacy issue, but I cannot find any profile preference like "hide my profile to members".
It's not a single case, actually most of the cities in the "region page" pledge a higher number of members than profiles you can see in the correspondig city page.
By the way: Entering "Colmar" in the search field in "Find members > Map search" leads to no result at all...

Some personal recent tests seems to show that the first problem is now solved for example : on
there are 6 people in Colmar and on
there are also 6 people
we shall group the following bugs about the http://www.bewelcome.org/searchmembers problem : http://trac.bewelcome.org/ticket/1531



Explanation:
The way the pages are counting the members differs. One considers only normal members. The other condiders the one temporary Inactive and may be out of Remind.
A decision about which one count is to consider.
Keep in mind that a member searching for a host can contact the three kind of thes above.
