  1. Opposite here for the second part: My caching partner has over 7k finds and when I click all finds I get 4k+. And if I try to see his placed caches (wanted to read event logs), I cannot see even his very recent event, now archived. So I sure hope they fix the problem soon!
  2. SAME. I am having an awful time trying to find an older cache. When I click on a friend's cache profile it says they have 198 owned caches. I am sure a bunch are archived but when I try to show them I get ONE. That's it! And yet when I look at a different CO (who I think is the CO for what I want to find) their cache page shows a few more and includes only active and disabled. WHAT on earth is going on? The constant changes lately have been (from this user standpoint) mostly for the worse. I keep saying, if it ain't broke don't fix it. A similar issue: looking at a friend's finds who has over 7,500. They have 7000+ physical finds and almost 500 ALs. But when I look at their find list it has a number in the 4000s! Can 3000+ of their finds SERIOUSLY be archived? I guess maybe but I doubt it and there is literally no way to know. What a mess. Please can someone official (ie a Lackey) tell us if there will be a fix? You cannot hide archived caches since they are often included in live puzzle caches!!!!!
  3. I hadn't even thought of this - same here. For years I can load a cache page and get no map (in 4 different browsers that I use regularly FWIW). I have repeatedly had to "view larger map". It's always frustrating.
  4. Oddly I have fewer problems in Firefox and tons in Chrome (consistently, not just recent). Right now the logs show in Firefox but not Chrome. FWIW.
  5. I can never understand why there are so many entities (especially online) that can never go with the old saying "If it ain't broke, don't fix it." Way too often companies (including Groundspeak!) spend $$ and hours on "upgrading" or "improving" when it is totally unnecessary. I'm not saying they are not making things better, but they sure have been good at breaking stuff lately. I have issues with: seeing logs, personal notes (KEY!!!!!), bookmark lists, and more! All these things used to work just fine. So call me +1 to many of these complaints/issues.
  6. I will add I get the error on Chrome and Firefox and Safari! It is an URGENT need to fix!!!
  7. I honestly can't believe that something THIS basic is still not fixed. I am still unable to click through and find a trackable. The link simply does not work, Error 404 etc. It's a pretty basic function and I seriously doubt it is a difficult bit of programming to fix. COME ON Groundspeak. PLEASE FIX.
  8. Bien que j'aie été contacté en privé, je clos ce fil de discussion en disant : WOW, @Tungstène n'est-il pas un grand héros ? Merci beaucoup !
  9. Adding information... En ajoutant quelques informations, voici une cache que je sais avoir faite ce jour-là car j'ai trouvé plus de photos. Et j'ai oublié de l'enregistrer aussi. https://coord.info/GC49GTA
  10. Bonjour! Je suis une Americaine, mais j'ai voyagé en France et j'ai fait du géocaching en 2019. Aujourd'hui, mes souvenirs photo m'ont montré une photo prise 19 Mai 2019. Je sais que j'étais en Bretagne et que je logeais un peu près de Carhaix-Plouguer. Nous avons fait quelques visites mais probablement pas à plus de 100 km environ. J'ai regardé mes journaux et je n'ai rien pour cette journée ! Je pense donc que je l'ai trouvé et que j'ai oublié de l'enregistrer. Je sais que c'est un long chemin à parcourir, mais si quelqu'un reconnaît la cache ou peut-être peut-être demander à quelqu'un qui pourrait le savoir ? J'aimerais savoir où il se trouve et l'enregistrer ! Merci beaucoup!!
  11. Wonder if this thread needs moving or re-posting in the web form for bugs?!
  12. I rarely look but apparently locked my milestones going back to 800. It looks like you can update which cache it was, because I see what is there for my 900 is wrong. It's not a big deal but I wondered why nothing seems to be unlockable? Maybe once locked that's it? But then why does it allow me to open the dialog box to change it? (screenshot attached, green save button looks active but nothing happens))
  13. I'm with you here - not sure what metrics were used but it sure seems like: premium members who've been in the game a long time and have active numerous caches. I thought the ones awarded I know of were well deserved, so whatever algorithm was invented seems pretty good from here. Only a small sample, of course.
  14. My take on the above is that the replies misunderstood the post. No one suggested that cachers do the calcs themselves, I think, just that there's enough information on the page FOR Groundspeak to do the calcs and get it right. (Although I will suggest it in a sec. Listing caches for a trip I don't think shows % only FPs? Unless using an outside website I guess?) While I sort of agree here, the huge dip in %FPs for those caches that are basic and getting huge numbers of finds but maybe more from basic members than premium, the calc would be really unfair to the CO/cache. Here is an odd example btw: a cache with over 200 FPs and 8900+ finds... https://coord.info/GC26VRH Currently it says 5% FPs, but the actual calc if you include all logs is 2.7% (half!). So I suspect (but obvs am not going to count) it is calculating the % from the PM logs. And granted, people go to it because they see something with a LOT of FPs. And yet actually it has a low percentage. (And isn't that great of a cache to be honest!) My point is, I think, that there is no winning here. Nothing suggested by anyone is "perfect" and actually all are problematic. I understand that FPs can be valuable, but they are often over-hyped and over-used IMHO. I don't want to banish them, but honestly I would just get rid of the percentage thing. Let people look and figure from the FPs whether to go for something, or look at FPs vs number of finds, if so inclined. I think the % calc has made a lot of work for GS programmers with results that are unsatisfactory to most everyone in some way. Not to mention buggy as h*ll!
  15. It isn't locked yet but anyone know exactly when it will lock? GC9FAVE that is... Trying to remind a friend to post. LOVE reading friends' choices and descriptions.
  16. FWIW you can always add another reviewer note, that's what I just did. Better than nothing?
  17. I can currently go from a cache page to the trackable(s) in it but CANNOT go from any trackable page to the cache page it is listed in. (Is it just me or does it feel like ever since the whole logging thing was changed that there are a lot of things breaking?!)
  18. Perhaps I should start a new thread, I don't see this being discussed but... did Groundspeak totally change photo formats? All of a sudden ALL my photos look teeny tiny when I click from cache logs. They used to be a size I could see but not now. Am I imagining this????
  19. Any ETA for the fix? Still a problem on my end!
  20. Is anyone else having this issue? It's happening to me on Chrome (latest version) on a PC. I can see a list of trackables that are (supposedly) in a cache, but every time I click one I get "Error 404:DNF". I gave it several hours... problem still there!
  21. Update... tried to log in Firefox, no luck. Then waited 15 minutes and tried again and it works. Website blip ?!?!
  22. I just logged something on the website yesterday with no trouble. (I'm on Chrome, latest version.) Today I cannot log AT ALL. The page opens to this. The dropdown doesn't work and there is no date. URGENT fix needed!
