  1. Here is something I just noticed. I had my Latest Activity section set to community (see mine and all my friends logs). I then clicked on one of the logs to see what it said. Great. I then clicked the back button to go back to my dashboard and then Latest Activity section went back to being just my own logs. I've never seen this happen before on either of the computers I use. Is anyone else seeing this issue? Shouldn't the selection be sticky? I am running Windows 10 with Google Chrome.
  2. Yep, we agree and we already have plans in place to work on both of those points of frustration. We'll be excluding trackable visit logs soon and condensing more than one entry from a friend in a day to "benandjayme found X cache and 99 more - click to view". Thank you Jayme. I am really looking forward to this
  3. Also, I am now seeing the last 30 days in the Latest Activity section. And there is probably hundreds of logs in this section for me now, which includes every single trackable that my friends have visited to caches. I really don't care to see about which trackables my friends have visited at caches. This section currently takes up SO MUCH SPACE, it seems to go on forever. The amount of entries on here is a bit ridiculous. I don't think there is any reason to see the caches or trackables that my friends logged a month ago. I originally liked seeing which caches my friends found in the past few days, but if there's going to be a list of hundreds of entries, I think I'm changing my mind. I think 30 days worth of information is a bit excessive and that the trackable visit logs are unnecessary.
  4. I can't remember if this has been brought up, but on my Dashboard under Recent Activity there are 12 entries for "X user" submitted "cache" for review. I think this would be something you would NOT want anyone, outside of the cache owner and the reviewer, to see. I'm sure my friend doesn't want me to see when they submitted their 12 caches for review.
  5. Like MartyBarfast, I also appreciate seeing the metadata for Recently Viewed caches. I don't think each entry in that section needs to be condensed to one line, but I would still like to see it condensed AND the GC Code added. Here is a mock-up of how I'd like to see it presented: Very nicely done! I like that a lot. Getting rid of some of the white space makes a big difference.
  6. I don't think this was accidentally cc'd to you. Geocaching.com's summer promotion has a pirate theme, so they sent this email to everyone.
  7. This might have been said already, but I would find it very helpful to have the GC# included in the information displayed in the Recently Viewed section of the Dashboard.
  8. It would be especially help if in the Recent Logs section that was a link to the cache page or trackable page there as well. I find that about 99% of the time I would want to click a link here to go to the cache page or trackable page, especially for the trackables I visit to caches. There's nothing included in those logs, so having the link go to the log for that trackable visit is useless.
  9. I agree with this suggestion also. It would be nice to see on the dashboard a list of my owned caches that have a Needs Maintenance flag on them instead of having to look through my list of owned caches.
  10. I think this link will be helpful to you. https://payments.geocaching.com/?renew=true
  11. It would be easier for you to just delete it yourself. I've done this a few times with caches I own.
  12. Feel free. Let me know the GC when you do so I can enjoy reading the logs as well. One of the other ideas I had and made a cartridge for was Tetris. Unfortunately, the player apps aren't ready for something like that. Some of the apps will croak when the 200+ zones are created, some show only a pin on the map for a zone instead of showing the zone's shape (this makes playing the game more of a challenge), and some don't update their map at all until you click out and revisit the map. The good news is Groundspeak's emulator and Webwigo can play it. If you're wondering about the 200+ zones, I had a decision to make: move zones every time a tetromino is moved in the well or make the game board into a giant LED screen, toggling zones on and off like LEDs to make the tetromino appear to fall. I chose the latter because I believed once the zones were set up, toggling their active states would perform better. I've got it. Thanks. I will have to wait awhile to work on this though. My laptop crapped out recently and I had to buy a new one.
  13. Hey Ranger Fox. This sounds like a very cool Wherigo idea. I'd love to put one out in my area.
  14. I would say just go ahead and change it. You may just have to explain to people that you've done so.
  15. Geocaching.com has an official app for iPhone that you can download for free. Just search for Geocaching in the App store.
  16. You did. BUG: Accidentally Select Drop, Change to Visit, TB still gets Dropped Yes, that was me that posted that there as well. I wanted to cover all my bases.
  17. I think I found a bug with the new logging. When logging a cache, I accidentally clicked "Drop" for one of my trackables when I meant to select "Visit." Before submitting the log, I clicked Visit for that trackable and at that screen it was highlighted blue that "Visit" was selected. When I submitted the log, the trackable was dropped in the cache, even though I changed it to be a Visit log on the previous screen. I replicated this error as well after I accidentally did it.

  19. Make a Pocket Query from the list to get a GPX file of all caches in the list. You download the Pocket Query, it's not sent by email. Can I make a Pocket Query from a text file? I usually get an email with a list of caches for a GC trip. I copy the email to a text file so I can put it into GSAK. But, I'd also like to load the list to GC.com so I can Create a bookmark that can be seen by the Official App. If that part can be done I'd like to keep it in the same order that the email was in. I don't think what you're trying to do is possible. How are you getting a list of caches in an email? Is a friend just emailing you names and GC codes? You could just create a bookmark list on geocaching .com and then type the GC codes in and make your list that way. And then make a pocket query to put on your GPSr or phone.
  20. Because that is just the way it is.
  21. Downloaded Wherigo cartridges was never a function of any of the Geocaching apps.
  22. It is quite refreshing to hear this. I have often felt in the past that HQ has made a bunch of changes and then not said anything else about it, even though people are providing feedback and talking about the things they don't like. Thank you for being open and honest with us and for keeping us updated.
  23. I'm puzzled. I see the reverse: in the old page, visits are now and have always showed up in the "your logs" section, but on the new page's "recent logs" section, I don't see them. Ah, yes. You are correct that they do show up in the old "dashboard" under "Your Logs." I just never seemed to notice them that much because they are smaller and less in your face so to speak. So much white space makes it really weird looking. But I do see trackables I visited in the new Dashboard. See photo below. Also the two trackables I visited at the cache I found are a few entries below my log for said cache. I don't know if it's always been this way or if I'm just noticing it more now that the spacing is so wonky. My main question would be since my own logs are now combined into a section along with my friends' logs, will I see trackables that my friends visit to caches in this section? I haven't seen that yet, so I'm guessing now.
