  1. I got there. I had to go to the help center and search for "Friends List" that link took me to the friends list. Clicked on my finds on the friends list and then on profile at the bottom of my list. That took me where I wanted to be but it is a tedious work around. Time for someone to fix the issue we're all having from our bookmarked access to our profile. That's where we want to be in the first place.

  2. So, I can upload drafts Using Cachly, I can then post those drafts after editing, I can look at something called the Cache Owner Dashboard but all that lets me do is look at recent logs on my caches which I already read in my email. Now, I want to look at my Friends list ... nope, no link on the useless dashboard. My statistics? Nope no like on the useless dashboard. It has lots of nice white space for no apparent reason. Guess I'm done with geocaching for today. Maybe someone in Seattle will fix it tomorrow morning. One can only hope.

  3. I did a streak of 34 days once and found that it soon began to feel like work. I might try to finish the medium version here but I already know I've no interest in the the "Hard" version. Last month it was caching 20 days out of 28 available and got a bit tedious. Now, with 35 days available they switch it up to a 28 day streak. WUWT? I can see the hamsters chortling in the balcony seats saying, "Let's see how high they'll go when we say, 'Jump" "

     

    The folks working on 366 day streaks, or lifetime streaks won't be bothered by or encouraged by this challenge. I'll be interested to learn the number of folks not previously mentioned who finish the Hard version here.

     

    Cache on, it's all fun.

    Unfortunately, it is. The initial issue was caused by recent privacy requirements that allowed users to hide their last visit date. This in turn broke this aspect of the friends feature. The only real option we had short of an entire overhaul of the feature was to remove the option to sort by last visit date.

    Yes, that is unfortunate. Thank you for letting us know the cause of the issue.

    Thank you to all for reporting this issue. I will pass this info along to our engineers so they can begin looking for a solution. Thanks for your patience in the meantime.

    Simply removing the option to sort by last visited is not even close to being a solution.

    At least the other options show a list of friends. The option I was asking about doesn't even do that. 

     

    And, this reply sounded so hopeful. Now, not so much.

    Thank you. 

  8. Thanks for the hot fix. Now, perhaps, it could be reduced to the size of the "Your Caching Chronology" line at the top of the actual statistics? I think a line to access the edit screen is needed but one line should be enough to do that. Thanks again.

    I don't see how scrolling past this small box is any worse than scrolling through the entire length of stats.

    "Yearly breakdown" grows longer each year...

    Because, if I ever wanted to change these I'd happily follow a link to do that. Meanwhile, I don't want to scroll past them while I looking at actual stats whatever they might be. You present a good idea though. While they are removing the tedious editing page they could also code in compression/expansion of the yearly breakdown.

  10. Why am I suddenly presented with an "Edit your geocaching statistics" window when I open my statistics from the "Dashboard?" This has not been happening before. I did not click on anything where I might be asking to do this and it is tedious to have to scroll down past this every time. I made not changes in the boxes chosen and clicked "Save Changes" in hopes that it would then go away. No such luck. This window does not appear if I go to the Statistics page from my Profile page. This is what it looks like:

  11. Using Chrome

    When I'm on a Geocacher's Profile and want to view either the caches they have found or the caches they have hidden I run into an "Error 500." What's up and is a fix in the works?

     

    From a Profile I click on "Geocaches" then "All Geocache Finds" and the next page is "Error 500" Same if I click on "All Geocache Hides."

    That's a really good question. 

    The help center doesn't quite answer it but says this:

    2.1. Who can create an Adventure

    Geocachers

    The Geocaching Adventure Lab® app is in the next phase of its evolution. For now, Geocaching HQ’s first priority is to make sure that Premium members who qualify receive at least one credit.  

    Thanks, I did read that. I don't think it answers the question which is. Can my sister, who only caches very occasionally need to be a premium member so she can do Ad Labs with me when I visit. I used to be able to use the work around to log the few premium caches we happened to do together. Thirty bucks a year is not a go for as few she's done.
