  1. The problem may be related to the fact that since groundspeaks last update on 13th of May the geocaching.com map is only accessible via a secure HTTPS connection.

     

    If you open http:/www.geocaching.com/map the URL automatiically changes to https:/www.geocaching.com/map

     

    It seems as though Groundspeak didn't register the https://-URL for the plugin.

     

     

  2. It seems that this issue is only occurring when attempt to send from the map page as opposed to sending from individual cache listings. I have notified the engineering team of this issue.

     

    I have found a probable root cause!

     

    If you open the geocaching.com maps via http://www.geocaching.com/map/ the URL changes to https://www.geocaching.com/map/

     

    It seems the garmin plugin is not working when using a secure HTTPS connection.

     

  3. In all fairness Groundspeak does not have any control over "3rd party software" and if the 3rd parties are not part of the approved API group then there is no mechanism (or requriement) for Groundspeak to communicate any such changes to them.

    It seems some approved API group 3rd party software developers were not aware and not be prepared for this change...

     

    However, this most recent change seems to have caught the 'partner' developers by surprise, and for good reason, they do not know what to best do with the new content. When gc.com makes such changes, I do not understand why all 3rd party partner organizations with access to the API would not be notified in advance of a change like that.

    • And of course, no release would be complete without a solid round of text changes, site updates and bug extermination.

     

    Solid...????

     

    You've broken a lot of 3rd party softwares by just changing the term "Stages of a Multicache" to "Physical Stage" and "Question to Answer" to "Virtual Stage". link

     

    Thanks to notify us this change in advance...

     

  4. I started a "refresh cache data" of my GSAK database.

     

    After exactly 900 caches i received a final message "The number of calls allowed for this Method has been exceeded" and the process stopped although my full format balance was 5100.

  5. When i click on "View new content" I got:

     

    forums.Groundspeak.com Driver Error

     

    There appears to be an error with the database.

     

    If you are seeing this page, it means there was a problem communicating with our database. Sometimes this error is temporary and will go away when you refresh the page. Sometimes the error will need to be fixed by an administrator before the site will become accessible again.

     

    You can try to refresh the page by clicking here

     

  6. I've noticed that the site seems to have trouble maintaining lots of connections at one time. For example, if I'm looking at a number of different caches at the same time in browser tabs, the site will sometimes take quite a while to connect to a cache page after I open it, but others will open almost immediately. I suspect the load balancer is acting up again.

     

    I reported this issue a few weeks ago and still have... no response from GS until now...

     

    http://forums.Ground...dpost&p=5337344

     

    It seems this issue is back again.

     

    When i click on a geocaching link i get a brown background and have to wait...

     

    fyi: other websites are fast. Only access to geocaching.com is slow.

     

    Nobody else has "loading" problems?

     

    Today, I opened a new IE session to www.geocaching.com -> the page hangs after loading 60% of progress.

     

    I opened a new session in the same IE windows to www.geocaching.com -> loading page was as quick as 'greased lightning'...

  7. Another good example of a Favorites glitch is the International Space Station cache.

     

    1 found by AstroRM (did not favorited the cache)

     

    2 write notes by OHL Hockey Guy and LordBrtisch

     

    It was OHL Hockey Guy who favorited this cache but did not logged the cache with a FOUND . link

     

    Result: International Space Station has unfairly 1 Favorite or a 100% Favorites/Premium Logs score...
