'Each month from January through October, at least 2,020 hosts will be randomly selected from those who opt-in' Is it random or are those of us who hosted a 10! Event excluded? How many cachers actually applied to host a 20 year Event? (just wondering if if worth getting my hopes up each month....) Thanks M

I think you're missing the point. It's more of a privacy issue really.

No. There would be no point in doing so either.

In order to view a cacher's profile, you have to register. However, there are no checks on the intentions of someone who registers. In case anyone is wondering, this was prompted by a nasty message sent to us my someone who registered yesterday. I have no idea who this person is and I am not happy with just everyone being able to view our stuff and we have deleted all information for the time being. Perhaps making the gallery premium member only as well would be a good idea. Thanks

We logged some caches on Friday evening using one phone and they were DEFINITELY showing as found on both our phones on Saturday morning. They are now not showing as found. Likewise, about a dozen cached logged yesterday by phone are now not showing as found. Don't say they were deleted as the caches were by many different COs.

I used the comments on lists a lot! It's bloomin' annoying that they have all been removed without warning.

We've found done over 700 Labcaches, found over 1500 Wherigos, placed 17 original Wherigos , found over 570 virtuals, had placed caches within the revevent time period etc and still didn't seem to qualify for anything. I think we must be black-listed

Looks like it might be a partnership thing.... https://mancunian1001.wordpress.com/2019/08/05/bored-this-summer-how-about-some-geocaching-fun-by-bus/ https://aboutmanchester.co.uk/stagecoach-manchester-launches-summer-geocaching-app/

That's quite intersting. The Comercial content guidelines for Adventure Labs seem a lot more vague than for normal caches Lab Caches: Adventures cannot require or encourage players to pay a fee for a product, service, access, or for charitable purposes. Access to Adventures must be free for participants. Normal Caches: Cache pages perceived as commercial will not be published. Commercial content includes any of the following characteristics Overtones of advertising, marketing, or promotion Suggests or requires the finder do any of the following Go inside a business Interact with employees Purchase a product or service Name, links, or logos of the following Businesses Commercial products Competing games or cache listing services Links or logos of agencies and organizations (including nonprofit organizations), unless needed for permission This suggests that Lab Cahces DO allow advertising, marketing, or promotion.

That's strange. A cacher friend of mine (who was given access to create a set) said that they have to be approved.

Seeing as we have been deemed not worthy of taking part in the last two swathes of lab cache releases (or Virtual Rewards for that matter), I'd be interested to know what future plans are afoot for this type of 'cache' Are there plans to allow everyone create 'adventures' at some point in the future? Mark

I was under the impression that cachers had to be offered the chance to create a set of Adventures Labs and then the caches were reviewed before being published, so I was somewhat surprised to see a set of Lab Caches placed by a bus company and encourages uses to use their own app to plan the trip! Mark

The accesskey is missing on these elements id="ctl00_ctl30_hlSubNavViewBrowseMap id="ctl00_ctl30_hlSubNavGeocaching2Minutes" id="ctl00_ctl30_SubNavBulkCodes" id="ctl00_ctl30_SubNavGiftMembership" and duplicated on these two id="ctl00_ctl30_hlSubNavLists" id="ctl00_ctl30_hlSubNavTrackables" Not sure when this changed but it was only in the last week or two. Thanks

Have all Lab Caches apart from those set for Mega/Giga Events been published now? Are there any plans to have more set by individual cachers? Thanks

Does anyone still write Wherigos using Urwigo? I cannot say how disappointed I am with it. I from 2008 to 2015 I used the Groundspeak builder but it no longer works on the new computer I have so I thought I'd try to use Urwigo instead. I give up! It looks nice but I find it virtually unusable for anything but the most simple of cartridges.

Can SOMEONE please show me how to call a lua function in Urwigo? Screenshots or a link to a youtube tutorial would be great. Thanks Mark

Yes, that would be the normal way to do things but I just can't get it to work in Urwigo It would help it I actually got an error but no, nothing at all!

It's possible to type my own code in Urwigo but I can't see how to pass parameters to the functions. If it relies on using global variables it would force pretty poor code style. Both these issues were REALLY EASY to do in the Groundspeak Builder . Yes, the one which everyone says is useless

Can someone please explain this for me? We found this cache on 5th May 2017 as shown on the cache page but the GPX files (both in the cache-page download and the My Finds file) say 6th of May 2017 I have no idea if this has occurred with other logs - I'd be surprised if this was the only one - but I noticed this one as it broke a run of consecutive days finds. The date in the GPX download certainly used to be correct as we had a 368 day run showing in FindStatGen Thanks

Can anyone answer my question here? https://forums.geocaching.com/GC/index.php?/topic/352105-urwigo-how-do-i-use-undocumented-properties-and-pass-parameters-to-functions/ Thanks

Urwigo: I can't figure out how to use undocumented properties eg: b = zoneFinal.CurrentBearing and how do I incorporate my own functions and pass parameters to them? eg var_direction = getDirection(b) If I create a function using the gui, the only available method appears to be 'call'. I can't see how to specify parameters If I paste in the lua code in a run lua code action nothing seems to happen Thanks

I didn't realise the app prevented early logging; I never log Events (or caches) by phone. At least it's a step in the right direction.

I'd be surprised if this hasn't been requested already, but how about preventing Attendeds from being logged before the actual event date? Why does it bother me? I have a PQ which I preview frequently to see what events there are and in order to exclude old events I select the 'have not been found' option. This means that events which have been logged by time travellers get missed off and cue the tumbleweed.... Thank you

So, given the lack of response to this, I suspect no one cares. :( Pity really as I find it really useful (when combined with a couple of greasemonkey scripts to make it usable that is)
