I just tried it ?
when creating the solution the ( key word ) can't have spaces
but when I checked the solution worked - I used a space and it worked
doesn't follow a known format for a solution.
Please use the same format as on geocaching.com: N/W DD MM.MMM, N/W DD MM SS.SSSS or DD.DDDDD, or a keyword with no space for keyword solutions. -

Yes, the correct answer can contain a space. But, the answer without a space is also correct.
Thank you ( arisoft ) I'll write it up now

simple question .
certitude
key word puzzle solution
can the correct answer have a space in it
like
( black cat ) or does it have to be ( blackcat )

Please don't reply with any negative comments or abuse to the question I would like to ask .
"virtual rewards 0.4"
were you awarded a credit ( "virtual rewards 0.4" ) and have no interest in using it ?
if so I'd be happy if possible to adopt it / pot it to good use .
Like I said please don't be negative , its only a question , please only response if your happy to let yours go .

Happy logging Basic members

We all know why and how to uses the likes of Quicklinks
question is when will the ( bug ) be fixed
the list of found (PM) cache by my youngest is getting longer by the day
she has found and signed the logs whilst caching with Me .
-
watching this thread as I too used to use the quick link to log my Basic member daughter as finding cache's when she's been caching along side Me ...
looking forward to the function returning ( soon )

My first impression of the new layout was good I like it.
until I attempted to log a TB Discovery.
Log preview
See a preview of your log including any formatting and markup.
I like to use # ,###, *, **, and *** in my logs along with the odd [8d]
I found that the PREVIEW is not what gets posted ?
for bold type , # Littel-leggs show in the preview as BOLD , but when you view the actual log is not , its what you have typed in # Little-leggs
you still need to type # Little-leggs #
etc
I'd like the PREWIEW re-gigged

If what you're doing is OK, then it'd be OK if everyone "dropped" a TB in a cache every time they felt like it without actually leaving it behind, then left it there until they felt like "moving" it to another geocache, right? And then we'd never have to worry about whether cache inventories was correct, because we'd know for sure that they were not.
The cache is missing so its immaterial weather I drop a TB ?
goes back to the beginningdo cachers log their DNF
and do C.O react ?
does HQ react ?
19 ( nineteen ) DNF's and the C.O has done nothing , and yes before you go into one they logged in on the 27th Aug 2023 ?
sort these issues out before thinking about one TB which can't be in a cache cuss the cache is potentially missing .- 3

following good communication with the seller , He's now taken the listings down , he's sent the T.O a message , but the T.O hasn't been active for years , who knows they might respond , he'll give it a week and the he says he'll put the TB's ( four ) in a cache locale to him ,
Fingers Cross these T.B's will be back in the game soon for everyone to move and enjoy .

question
how many cache inventory's reflect the correct contents of a cache ?
thank you , LOTS
how many C.O will go and check the contents , to see if it match's the inventory ?
DNF , is it me or is the cache missing , has the C.O checked on that fact , I doubt it . the cache the coin sits in has six DNF's , no maintenance visit by the C.O no interaction by the reviewer ?
I'm surprised you have mentioned the fact the fictitious TB is in a cache I didn't find which potentially is not even there and its a ( NANO ) and the coin wouldn't fit in a NANO ?
13 DNF's on the cache ?
then a Found log by a cacher with 11 findsthen 6 more DNF's
this must be a very well hidden nano under a bench ?
where's the C.O , which one of the rules does this contravene

that's problematic, because it's not in the cache it purports to be in.

Hello ,
viewing e-bay , I found a TB, I looked in to it as the sell had the tracking code on display ?
the coin has been activated , owned by a cacher and not the seller . this was clear as to the wording of the add .
if they'd been the TB owner who was looking to sell it it would have mentioned ( this coin is adoptable )
I have communicated with the seller , who says he bought the coin's in a junk shop .
Question ,
are the coins now his to re-sale on line
or do they still belong to the T.O ?
-
WoW
this has defiantly put the cat amongst the pigeons.
no mention of the DNF ? was the cache there , has its owner maintained it , or was it me having a bad caching day .
visit a TB to a cache ,
do you take ALL your TB's to every cache you visit it to , I think not

I'm not here to tell you how to manage your travel bugs, but looking at the history, it appears you pick this up and drop it off in every cache you DNF.
That's twice as much work than simply keeping it in your inventory and choosing the option to only visit it, which is what you should be doing when you take a TB to a geocache but take it with you when you leave.
Example:

Example:
That would also avoid the confusion that's potentially created when someone DOES find the cache you DNF'd and wonders why your coin isn't in the inventory. Because currently, GCA1E4A purports to have your coin inside it. Which would be impossible, since you didn't find it.

Visits don't show on the map.
Dropping does
twice as much work ? its my coin and I like to log it ?
I should be ....?
where does it say I can't
coin not in cache ( if ) its found ? it says in my logs don't expect to find my coin cuss I didn't find the cache
and do you really expect to find every coin just because the inventory says there's a coin there ?

That highly depends on whether you've set them up for the same search radius around your home coordinates.
Your PQ is limited to 40 miles around your home coordinates.Can you confirm that the same is true for the regular search? (By default it runs a global search that would yield a lot more results.)
Even if you run the original search based on the same 40 mile radius, there are almost 15000 caches in that radius.
PQs will always pick the first 1000 by distance around the reference point. This is finite and cannot be modified further - PQs are a snapshot in time.Search, depending on how you filter it, will return the 1000 that is most relevant to your additional filtering. So you may get a different set of 1000 from the 15k total if you filter additionally on Last Found vs Distance. That is the benefit of Search being dynamic vs a finite snapshot by distance.
I don't see anything wrong here.
From where I'm viewing there is a problem ,
both the PQ and the search are set with the same criteria ,
40 mile radius
not owned by me
not found by me
why are the two searches so different , when they used to be the same , only changed since

@HHL
Thanks for your report and the extensive documentation.
It appears that while we fixed things with the "include all" aspect of attributes, there is still something amiss with the "exclude all" aspect.Unfortunately you're still not including screenshots so my best guess is that you're talking about the PQ preview in old seek/nearest:
Without knowing exactly what PQ you're looking at or whether you're actually looking at an actual PQ vs just some other search results, it's hard to troubleshoot.
That said, clicking on "Last Found" would always sort the results on the "Last Found" date in either ascending or descending order. If there were unfound caches, you'd see them at the top when sorting in ascending order. Based on my tests that still works as expected.
I can't speak for how many clicks it used to take vs does take but am not aware of us having changed this part of the behavior. As noted above, the sorting still works.
As noted in my post from November 2, we've identified the issue, so no further help is needed at this point.
A fix will require rebuilding the polygon service that creates the coverage along the route. This is a larger ask and hence this one is taking a little longer.
two search's for un-found cache's
one using PQ which shows just four cache's
second search using search tab filtering out , not owned by me , no found by me , see how many more cache's there are un-found near me
should they not be the same ? -

I'm sorry, I am unable to follow what you're describing. Please compare your report to the other reports in this thread and try again. I'd be happy to help once we have a complete report.
Hi Bl4ckH4wkGER
LAST FOUND , option
I used to be able to use this option to find ( UN FOUND ) new cache's by clicking it not once not twice but by clicking it three times ,
when I do this now it only shows me ( currently four cache's ) three trads and an event ,
but it used to show me a lot more ,
I know there is a lot more than its showing me , evens up until the new year 2023
my question is why can't I see them like I used to , when clicking Las Found three times .
-
The LAST FOUND , function seems to not be working as I would like , or as I used to use it ,its only showing two un found cache's ones and even and the other a trad ,
searching via the search a cache I see there a lot more than the tow shoeing in My PQ
