Genes say it is - but I don't think so!! Why do I have to go through yet another process to see the names that have been added recently, another to see the names that are now on page 2 where they all used to be on one page - and to have to wade through view view view to see the numbers!! Fail to see how this is an improvement on what we had before!! Or am I the only one?

No you're not - I totally agree with you - far too cumbersome.

Thanks heavens for that - was beginning to think it was just me!! Maybe they can tweak the page to keep the so called improvements, but also to restore that which we've lost.....

I agree too. I cant even work out where I need to click to see names added today that match mine. Any help would be appreciated for someone to point me in the right direction. Cheers

Richard, Get yourself on to the Name Summary page, top right hand corner where it says 'Tip: Refine your search to new matches within the drop-down' is the bit you want for names added today - or in the last 14 days.

I thought the names summary page was much improved. Everything together and easy to see. Perhaps I'm weird then!!
