Why is current trip and how to set/unset and show/hide it

Why Plantour uses the current trip

The current trip is Plantour's active trip context. It lets the application know which trip should be used when you open trip-specific pages such as Participants, Items, Todos, Bags, Shared items, Shared todos, and Comments.
  • When a current trip exists, the toolbar can open trip pages directly for that trip.
  • When no current trip exists, current-trip-only actions are disabled and the toolbar text shows No Trip Selected.
  • Showing the current trip name in the toolbar is only a visual shortcut. It does not create or change the trip by itself.

How to set or unset it

  1. Open the Dashboard Trip section and click Trips.
  2. Select the trip you want to work with in the trips page. Plantour stores the selected trip as the current trip.
  3. If no trip stays selected, Plantour clears the current trip and the toolbar falls back to No Trip Selected.
A simple mental model is: in Plantour, the selected trip becomes the current trip.

How to show or hide it in the toolbar

  1. Open the toolbar features menu with the bars icon.
  2. Click Hide Trip if the trip name is currently visible, or Show Trip if it is hidden.
  3. Plantour remembers that visibility preference and keeps the same current trip underneath. Only the toolbar text is shown or hidden.
