  1. They are aware of the problem, just be patient... https://twitter.com/GoGeocaching/status/1676302519377735685
  2. Just verified it. The Pocket Query contains 1 co-ordinate per cache (see wpt-element in .GPX file), which will be the corrected one if it has been corrected. Otherwise it will be the bogus.
  3. Today, I installed an update of Chrome (version 100, before I had 99) and all is working fine again.
  4. I asked other people as well and they don't have this problem. Also, when I select 'OpenStreetmap German Style' it works fine. I noticed that the error has changed from 418 to 403 now (Failed to load resource: the server responded with a status of 403 ()). When I open one of the tiles (for example 'https://a.tile.openstreetmap.org/14/8447/5371.png') of the map in the same tab of the browser, it also loads fine, isn't that strange in case I would have been cut off? Next to this, when displaying the map in another browser (Edge), the 'OpenStreetMap default"-map is also shown without any problems.
  5. Since yesterday, I can't use the "OpenStreetMap Default" map anymore when browsing caches via https://www.geocaching.com/map/ in Chrome. When selecting this option, I just get a blank map with all my caches on it. When choosing "OpenStreetMap German Style" it just works fine. The 'Black and White"-version doesn't work either. I had a look in the browser's console and noticed a lot of 418-error messages on GETting the tiles for the map. I saw the same issue reported here: https://help.openstreetmap.org/questions/83828/tile-layer-418-error When opening the URL of such a tile in a seperate tab, it just loads fine. Is anyone experiencing the same problem? I believe Groundspeak shall have a look at this.
  6. Don't show again .......... for that particular link? Links to external coordinate checkers for example will be different for each cache listing. So I still will get these popups for every new cache listing when I click on the checker in that listing? Normally, for each individual cache listing, I only click once on a checker link....
  7. Thanks for this first fix. However, using CTRL+clicking on the link to open the link in a new TAB still doesn't work. The link still opens in the current TAB after the notification. Next to this it would be very nice to have a "don't show this warning anymore" checkbox in the pop-up, to be able to opt out of these (for me annoying) notifications.
  8. Had the same problem and fixed it. Recent versions of Chrome block insecure downloads (from http-sites) if the link starts from a secure (https) website). The link to the PQ is to an http-site. Your Gmail is an https-site. You can fix this easily by going to: chrome://settings/content/insecureContent On this page, add the following allowed URL and you're fine again: 'https://mail.google.com' For some background info, refer to: https://www.ghacks.net/2020/10/08/chrome-is-blocking-downloads-here-is-why/
  9. Currently, found (mystery) caches are shown on the map at the location of their 'bogus' coordinate. That's nice in case someone has put a lot of effort in making a nice GeoArt. This way, the GeoArt is restored when you found all the caches. But..... For multiple reasons it would be very handy to see the caches on the map at their final location (i.e. at the corrected coordinate's location): When planning to place a new cache, I would like to have an overview of the actual location of the caches in the target area. Since I found all the caches in my neighbourhood, I don't have this overview anymore. When helping out other geocachers it's handy to quickly see the actual location of a cache. etc. Therefor I've got the following suggestion: Is it possible to have a check box in my account settings or on the map itself (panel on https://www.geocaching.com/map/?) to be able to choose whether you want to see found caches on their actual (=corrected coordinate) location or on their bogus location?
