You can see the final post says that the trackable isn't there but they don't post a "missing" log so it seems to me it should still be showing there.
-
There was one marked as missing so I just accept that and will grab it back into my inventory but another one was dropped in a cache 8/8/22 and a note was posted on 26/8/22 say it wasn't there. They did not actually mark it as missing.
On the one I am actually querying, it was dropped into a cache a long time ago. I checked through all the subsequent logs and the CO had to replace the cache as it had disappeared (along with my trackable I assume) but unless it has been marked as missing, I don't see how it is still not shown on the cache on the web page.
On another point, I wish that cachers would just post a note saying a trackable is not in a container instead of marking it as missing. It can then be retrieved from the last known cache.
I really must stop going through my owned trackables as it is disheartening!
-
I decided it was time to have a look at where all my trackables were and have now seen a second one that is shown as being dropped off, no one has retrieved it, and yet it is no longer shown on the page. Surely, even if the trackable has disappeared, it should still show on the web site. I haven't got the heart to see what has happened to two others just yet!
-
It really is a nightmare to keep changing the date. I have had to go back over some of my logs to change the date when I logged the day after finding them. Please, please get this changed.
-
That worked, thank you.

Thank you. I tried that but it didn't work. Have you any other ideas? I always start on the map.

I no longer have my "caches found" number under my photo. I think it might also have had my caching name there as well.

I did a sequential AL yesterday. It was not a pleasant experience. At Stage 4 the notice board is missing. Many people have mentioned this in their logs but I assume that the owner has no idea. Obviously, if one cannot figure out the answer then, as it is sequential, the AL cannot be completed. Apart from that I believe there should be a good reason to make an AL sequential. Especially when there is a choice of parking places.
I lost sight of my original point when I wrote the above. It was that when anyone completes one of my ALs I do not get any notification. Every now and then I have to make a conscious decision to go back to my ALs to read the logs. Otherwise I would have no idea if stage info was missing.

Even with the best testing tools, the things in the environment that the questions are about can change. If a question becomes unanswerable because the sign it refers to is removed or replaced by a new sign with different wording, the owner's not going to know about it because there's no way to log a DNF or NM, and they'd be even unlikely to notice a lack of finders because owners don't get notified of those either. Once an AL gets past 10 completions, the owner can't even see when the most recent completion was.

I've been trying to send a message via the message centre but my page is blank. That applies to my computer and my android phone.
-
Hooray! It's been fixed. Thank you.
-
I noticed this a few days ago and it is driving me mad. I also prefer not to use View Maps. I hope this will be changed back.

This is happening to me. I've tried other browsers and Recaptcha Validation Failed.

I am unable to get into my lists from the dashboard. I can access them by going into a cache page that is on a list and clicking on that. So I haven't been asked for feedback as I can't even see my lists!

I have found and solved indicators in all my lists. Must have been a temporary glitch. Also, when I do search, then filter, then apply, the filtered result comes up at once. No need to do this twice. Win10, Chrome 97 in this case, if that makes a difference.
I'll have another look tomorrow when I switch my computer on. The search problem, where it just takes me to the main page, and I have to put in my filters again, has been like this for some time so I've just got used to it. But the missing solved and found icons were a real pain.
-
Thank you. That worked. But it seems I shouldn't have to open and close the site just to do something that I was always able to do. I already have to search twice on the filter button. When I initially filter the webpage comes up and I have to go into the filter again. I've just got used to it.

Please check the filters on the Lists... by default when you generate a List the results show only caches you didn't found yet.
I am talking about lists that I have already generated then go back to after a caching day. So yesterday I found some of the caches on my Solved list. Then I went back to my (already generated) list and look for the smiley face so that I can delete them. Also on my lists, if I have corrected the coordinates, there was an icon on them to show they were corrected. This no longer shows on my lists.
-
In the past, when I make a list and subsequently find one of the caches, the refreshed list shows a smiley face. Also, when I corrected coordinates I used to have a little icon on the cache name. Now I get neither. Sorry if this has been mentioned before but I have searched and cannot find anyone else who have had these problem. One more thing, when I click on Search then Filter, the first time I press Apply nothing happens. I then have to click on Search then Filter a second time and then it works. Hope these problems can be fixed.

Still no dashboard. Also, cannot get into my lists or Reach the Peak. Tried shift F5 and nothing changes.
-
Just tested it and it is still broken.

This happened to me today as well. I sent numerous, partial messages to a CO because I didn't realise that pressing carriage return would automatically send the message. Once I realised, I still forgot that pressing enter sent my message so the CO received a number of one sentence messages before I had finished.. This was despite the fact that I had unticked the "press enter to send". It drove me nearly mad and I am sure made the CO wonder if I knew what I was doing. I hope this can be sorted out. It should be enough to just untick the box once.

Right-clicking the link in Gmail and selecting Open link in new tab works, still. For those wanting a quick workaround.
I've just spent a long, long time trying to find out how to download my "My Finds" gpx without any luck. This worked. Thank you so much!

We've had souvenirs deleted by asking Geocaching HQ.
"hiding" not the same, and getting souvenirs not wanted just because we cached that day, we found that HQ will delete them for us if asked.
I can only think you managed to get them deleted before some new rule came in. They categorically stated that they would not delete any of my unwanted souvenirs when I asked.

I have just received a reply from Geocaching HQ. They say they cannot delete unwanted souvenirs, only souvenirs that were awarded in error. They end by thanking me for my understanding. I don't want any thanks because I don't understand why I have to accept unwanted souvenirs in the first place.

Trackable not showing on web page

Thank you. That can be the only answer. I'll bring it home now.
