  1. I do experience the same problem, on 2 different accounts on 3 different phones. 2 Android 12 app version 9.47.1 and 1 iPhone The strange part is that some lists do download while others fail. A notification appears: "Download of the list failed. Something went wrong. Please try again" I now noticed that the failed download is also present for some pocket queries in the app List Download failed https://coord.info/BMD79ZX https://coord.info/BMD8PBE List Download OK https://coord.info/BMA0YND https://coord.info/BMC2JDD I did uninstall and reinstall the app but the failed download did still occur.
  2. Yes, now the search results only shows the owners caches. Good that it was a bug that was easily fixed and kudos to the ones that made the repair to the code.
  3. When I try to see the owned caches of a user the result is all geocaches in the world instead of the ones owned by the profile in seeing. All geocaches - all in the world Traditional - all traditional in the world Multi - all multi in the world An so on This appears to be a system wide bug/feature as it seen on several browsers. Chrome android mobile Edge desktop Opera android mobile
  4. I was about to write that its still possible to change the date. So it was good that I actually looked and realised that the option to change the date on picture added to logs is removed. However, if you add pictures to the description by the upload tool the image is never added to the gallery so there is no date to be seen. About the possible differences is the image date and the publish date I'm certain that very few cachers would even notice it.
  5. On computers the only way that I can see is to use GSAK to download the caches and them filter for attributes Depending on wich OS your mobile phone has there is apps that can filter for attributes even for basic members.
  6. Seems like an reasonable change to me. Strange that it is only a suggestion, meaning it's optional, and nothing that is required.
  7. Have you tried clicking on the little calender symbol with 31 in it? Then a pull-down menu will appear where you choose the date by clicking on it.
  8. Depending on the Android version choosing an specific app to open links might be impossible. There are apps, like "better open with" that emulated to be a webbrowser if I remember correct and can be used to choose any app to open a link. I do remember that this has been discussed and explained in the past in the forums.
  9. On project-gc you can also get a list of all found ALC. And it's easier to copy the data if you want to get them into a database for example. https://project-gc.com/Profile/LabList
  10. Yes, you can choose a radius from a specific coordinate. Or choose a country and region, but no country. More settings are: Cache types Cache size Found status Difficulty Terrain Attributes positive and negative Placed date
  11. You can also try to flip your phone 90 degrees to one side into landscape. Then the browser will show the page content in a wider way.
  12. It works fine in a browser on the smartphone. You might need to flip the phone to landscape for all fields in the list to be visible.
  13. In the normal search results you can sort by placed date. In the list view you can also sort by placed date. It's the field furthers to the right. In the list view of a Pocket Queries you can also sort by placed date
  14. I predict that it will take maximum 24 hours before a website is made where these codes are collected and shared. And within 144 hours we have hundreds of accounts that have found 1 million caches. What you suggest is very similar to Adventure Lab Caches, and those are.logged by thousands by cachers that get the answers on-line. So no, this far from a great way for future geocaching.
  15. If I understand the question correct you have s number of geocaches and want to know which attributes these have together. Is this right? Then cachetur.no will be useful since all positiv and negative attributes are shown within a trip.
  16. To answer your question. Pictures of the container is seen as a spoiler as it might indicate where it's hidden or show a unique hole made construction that ought 5o be discovered on sight. If the logbook is wet, trashed och filled with signature logging a "Owner maintenance required" is the correct way to alert the owner, and coming visitors that something is wrong.
  17. The only solid guideline, or rule in this case, is that the logbook must be signed with you geo-nickname before a physical cache is logged as found. This has been the case since 23 years and will hopefully remain as long as geocaching.com is active. If there is no signature in the logbook the owner has the right to delete your log. All this is written in the guidelines and help center. 2 documents/places that it should be mandatory to read before starting an account. It you want this to change contacting Groundspeak is you option. Or heading to any of the other GPS based games that have no requirement to sign a physical log book.
  18. Some log type are by design given a date that never can be changed: Needs maintenance/owner attention required Needs archive/reviewer attention required. Disable Enable Archive This is deliberate since it would/could be chaotic among the logs if owners could backdate owner maintenance for example. Despite this is might be possible to use one of the API partner apps to change the log date. It appears that the log date of Mega events has been possible to change despite the locked log date on events.
  19. The short answer is that the coding for adventure Lab Caches have no country, region, size, d/t, attributes, publish dates and more that geocaches has. More answers from Moun10Bike can be read in this tread: If the found ALC mess up your statistics you can delete them or start a account where you only find Adventure Lab Caches on.
  20. Country souvenirs is only given when logging a found/attended/webcam picture taken on geocaches. So you get no country souvenir by finding only Adventure Lab Caches.
  21. 50 caches will most likely attract a lot of cachers when all of them is published. So placing them in the same area is easiest for the visitors and for you to make the necessary maintenance. So my recommendation is to choose a forest to place all stages and containers in. With a good access point to park cars or get to using public transport.
  22. I can recommend the app GPS Point, only available on Android. It use averaging, Meaning hundreds of coordinates are taken during a few minutes and the average of them is saved. And the coordinates are shown as used in geocaching so you can used them directly.
  23. One way that should suffice the GPS need is to ha checker where something from the location of the photographer is entered. Like a number from an electrical cabinet och a word from a sign. The checker then gives the coordinates for the final. That can be hundreds of meters away or only 5 meters.
  24. I did experience this yesterday to on my friends iPhone. On my Android the journal entries was shown. It was on the same ALC that we both played at the same time.
  25. If you plan to find the oldest cache in all European geocaching countries there are 55 of them. That includes smaller self governing areas like Aland island, Guernsey, Jersey, Sark and Faroe Islands and countries like Ukraine, Russia and Belarus that you probably would like to skip visiting for a while. 27 of the countries belong to EU, some to Schengen, of the rest some are visa-free and some demands a visa. With that in mind it will be necessary to use a mix of different kind of transportation getting around. There is a wide network of trains and buses. But that will get you to cities while the oldest cache might be in a remote area. Low budget airlines is also a cheap way to travel around Europe. Rental cars will probably have limitations on driving them outside of the country where they are rented.
