A week or so ago. I’ve since reinstated it. Wasn’t the first time.

They’ve disappeared off my unpublished caches recently.

It’s not just ad labs, my Magic Maker souvenir was dated the day after I attended & logged the event (also in Aotearoa New Zealand).

Using Safari to manage a list fails consistently for me.

This bug has been fixed going forward, and may be fixed for ad labs logged before the fix:

Still can't use Safari to delete a cache from a list.

Are you using Safari? They’ve been unusable since Dec 2022

If FTF isn’t available we’ll often save them for a streak / souvenir / dot day / etc. Or wait until we’re in the area rather than make a special trip out.

If you don’t post ASAP, other cachers can waste time & petrol trying for the FTF without realising it’s gone. Definitely good form to log as soon as possible in Aotearoa New Zealand.

It was mentioned in the forums.

There absolutely should be one, but this cool script counts for you, including ALs https://project-gc.com/Challenges//76697

Sounds like your phone is running low on memory when taking a photo, so offloads the AL app. Your options are more memory or GS writing the app to handle resuming properly. Wait till you’re out of cell reception and the app you were diligent to preload is unloaded 🤬

You can also see your ad lab finds here https://labs.geocaching.com/logs

Where are you trying to paste it? I’ve pasted all sorts of Unicode characters into the website builder and it’s been fine with them.

There's a Netherlands player who just logged a number of caches down here in Aotearoa New Zealand. The CO is inactive and the player is logging 8 years after their 'find'. Unsurprisingly their profile and stats are hidden.

I know a few people who use the stat, as they’re determined to never let it get longer.

You can absolutely edit the coords of the stages after the AL is live… and text, answers, etc. It’s the same easy process as creating the stages.

Multiple bugs when using Safari

Groundspeak just keeps introducing new issues with Safari. I browse a lot of sites with Safari, and geocaching.com is the only one which continually has errors. Regularly receive 'Safari Can't Open the Page' on random pages on the site. A refresh or 2 fixes it. Message Centre often displays a blank screen Message Centre often displays 'The conversation failed to load. Please refresh the page to try again.' Most recently, we can't edit details about a list. Most/all of these issues have been reported before. Safari has 10-20% of the desktop browser market, 50% of the mobile. Can Groundspeak do some testing with it please!

When hovering over the ? next to Points Remaining I see ‘logs until next favourite point: 0’. That’s either a very confusing design or bug.

Thanks for the PM Max, I'd forgotten the (hidden) option of clicking on your name on the leaderboard to show the individual points. And yes, I've received some 'Signal's Labyrinth item's!

I get this most times I visit Message Centre. You have to reload the page, sometimes twice, and it will appear.

So no souvenir for the firefly, just 60 points? I’ve got 1645 points so far by submitting drafts, but no firefly.

It seems to be a recent change, that when ctrl-clicking a link on a cache page (e.g. to geocheck.org), instead of opening the link in a new tab like every other website, geocaching.com instead displays a warning about it being an external link. If you OK that warning, the cache page is replaced by the external link, rather than opening a new tab. You can work around it by using the mouse to open the link in a new tab, but it's pretty annoying. Safari 15.4 on macOS.
