The email importer does not seem to handle multi-stop trips.
I forwarded an airline confirmation email to trips@dopplr.com. While it correctly identified by first destination, it ignored the second destination and thought I was returning home after only two days. While the page with other possibilities discovered in the email listed the second location, I was not able to indicate I would be going to both destinations over the course of my trip. Furthermore, the edit box for the trip did not have the option to add an additional destination (unlike in normal trip creation), meaning that I had to delete the trip and enter the trip by hand – not hard but a sign the email-based importer failed.
I’m frustrated

Inappropriate?Peter, you're correct that the importer does not yet understand multi-stop trips. We're working on that, and hope to show progress in that area soon.

Inappropriate?Ok, I guess I just jumped to the conclusion that it already understands them. I'm looking forward to the support! -
Inappropriate?It also appears to be the case for importing trips via iCal from TripIt.
If you look at my upcoming trip (username: jauderho), I am flying to Taiwan on Sep 3rd (via Tokyo). It is getting imported as a trip to Tokyo which is inaccurate.
Also, it looks like the carbon calculation for the upcoming trip is showing up as zero. -
Inappropriate?This is huge for me. The cost-benefit for dopplr is seriously impacted for me. I'll only use it if the benefit I get out of it outweighs the effort(cost) required. Until this gets fixed, the effort is more than I'd like to spend.
Maybe I'd be willing to input simple trips manually. Multi-stop trips happen to be the most tedious manual entry unfortunately.
I’m anxious

Inappropriate?I had tried the import trip from Tripit to Dopplr functionality for my trip to Taiwwan last September.
If you look at the trip, http://www.dopplr.com/trip/jauderho/3..., it was incorrectly imported as a trip to Tokyo. I had a layover in Tokyo but never spent any substantial amount of time there.
I would suggest that Dopplr understand layovers (maybe anything less than 4hrs in between trips is a layover?)
I’m sad
