  1. For some weeks, or even months, I have noticed that there seem to be no more notification mails for new private messages, as there used to be in the past. It is quite a nuisance when for instance a cacher is on tour, has a question for the owner of the cache he is looking for, sends a message and the CO doesn't even notice his request befor late in the evening, when he happens to open the website and sees the yellow marker. Is it a bug, or is it a new feature?

  2. Yesterday, June 6,  I played an Adventure Lab (sequential). When I called up the title page and clicked on Start, the app showed the title of stage 1, but the description of stage 5. Next step, title 1 and description 3, and so on. I could complete the Lab, but not in the sequence the owner intended. When I checked my own Lab, it seems to show the same fault: click on Start produces title 1, but description 3. This makes my Lab unplayable because the directions are given by video clips, and one follows another. Is this a general fault? Did anyone encounter similar difficulties?

    Pere, looks like you are clicking the drop down from the main profile... do it from the labs.geocaching.com page... so, like you I used to just click on the lab cache link from the geocache type list in my profile, but now I too get the blank screen... I logged in, and got the same image as everyone (the one advertising adventures on the app).. it's from that screen that you use the drop down to access your finds... a lot more effort to get there than it used to be, so I hope it gets reverted back.... image.thumb.png.3c973f9655a16c77f686c65e70a80231.png

     

    Thanks for the tip, 1in7! Found it. When opening the labcache page, I start with the builder page as a default, and there is no menu button. From the main page it works.

    The team is now aware of this issue and is looking into it. We hope to get it fixed soon.

     

    Until the issue is fixed, you should still be able to see your finds by logging in by clicking the login button in the upper right corner, then click the menu button in the top right (looks like a V), then click "View Finds". It looks like this might not be working for some folks - we apologize for any inconvenience.

     

    This doesn't work for me. When I click the chevron that is what I get:

    No "View Finds" here. But HHL's workaround helps.

  5. When I wanted to see my Labcache finds, I used to go to my public profile, Geocaches section, click on the corresponding line, and was redirected to the appropriate list. Last time I used this successfully was Sunday, May 2nd. When I tried this yesterday, it didn’t work anymore. When I put my mouse pointer on the line, the address shows below, see screenshot:

    What I get is this page:

    With other cache types, this procedure still works, for instance Wherigo:

    image.thumb.jpeg.691c266f2f7422fce0fdb2f0d22d1f8c.jpeg

    Clicking on this links redirects me to the correct Wherigo find list. So, I think, this just concerns Lab cache finds. It would be nice if this issue could be fixed in the near future.

    Thanks in advance!

  6. I've had this bug since April 17 (for 20 days now), and it is still bugging. Could HQ at least give us some progress report, apart from "Thank you for reporting this issue. We have passed it along to the Engineering team. "?

  7. Same here, and has been addressed already by other users in another thread.

     

    Engineering team in Seattle should be ashamed of themselves! Some basic rules about programmming I learned:

     

    1) If you want to change a website, draw a backup copy first

    2) Write your changes offline

    3) Before putting your changes online, test them.

    4) Have them tested by someone else.

    5) Put them online

    6) If something is wrong, put the backup copy back online

    7) Correct mistakes offline

    8) And fast!!!!!

     

    Seems quite straightforward for me! You know, some of us out here are paying customers, and we expect performance, not excuses.

     

    Just my two cents, no offense intended.

    I tested this earlier today (Windows 10 / Chrome) and it seems to have been fixed.

    Nope. I tested it just now with Windows10/Firefox, and the bug is still bugging

  9. Hi there,

    for some days now, I encounter a problem with the checkbox "press Enter to send". Before, I left this box unchecked, and it used to work properly. It is unchecked when I open the message center, but every time I want to start a new message, it will check automatically. Then, every time I want to enter a line feed, the message ist sent, even if not completed. Even when I uncheck the box during writing, the message is sent when I press Enter.

    First I thought GCLH was responsible, so I deactivated it. The problem is still there. I looked in the Settings section, but could not find a possibility to leave the box unchecked as a default. Maybe I'm just a little blind and could not see the text for the letters. Can anybody help me?

  10. I have had an AL since November 17, 2019, with 5 stages (standard), together with a Mystery Bonus Cache.

    As of today, I can see, using the information available:

    • 223 participants

    • 203 completions

    • 166 finish logs in the app

    • Nicks together with finishing times and dates of the first ten finders

    The bonus has 158 finds

    This leads to some conclusions:

    1. Some cachers start the adventure, then get tired of it and do not finish.

    2. Some cachers finish, but decide not to leave a log in the app, and go for the bonus.

    3. Some cachers finish, do not leave a log in the app, and don’t go for the bonus.

    4. Some cachers use GPS spoofing software, guess some answers, but can’t finish.

    5. Some cachers use spoofing software, and by intelligent guesses (or other spurious methods) get the answers right.

    6. Some like 5) even log the bonus online without having been there (I checked the log)

    Having said all this, I fully agree with the sentiments and arguments expressed before. I would like to see who found my Lab, and when. I once asked HQ for the reason not to provide the player completion statistics any more, and received „privacy politics“ as an answer. I’m sorry, but this is b…s... (censored). In what way ist the privacy of the first ten finders less valuable than the privacy of the rest? And: the information in the completion statistics is NOT personalized, as I usually don’t know the person behind the nick (unless I have met him or her in person). And I want to be able to verify valid logs, and to reject obvious fake ones.

    So, please, HQ, do something about this!

  11. Hi Christian,

    das ging aber schnell! Also GClh läuft bei mir auf Firefox, Betriebssystem Windows 10, Tampermnonkey v.4.10.6112, GClh v. 0.10.6

    Von weiteren Beeinträchtigungen habe ich nichts bemerkt.

    Gruß

    Hallo zusammen, ich hätte da mal gern ein Problem :-)

     

    Früher konnte man hier eines der Logtyp-Symbole anklicken und die Logs wurden dann entsprechend gefiltert. Das geht bei mir seit einiger Zeit nicht mehr. Ist das generell weg, oder habe ich nur die richtige Option in der Config-Liste nicht gefunden?

     

    Herzliche Grüße, und bleibt alle gesund,

    Peter

  13. And now, as of last week, the "player statistics" file has disappeared from the leader board. I think this is helpful information for the cache owner, as there is no physical log for the Labs, and not every finder gives a comment before leaving the app. Will player statistics be back? Real soon? Please? Completion statistics does not give more information than the diagram does.

     

    PS: Yes, reading the file is a pain in the .... , bur it works for me with Excel.
