    I've decided that I don't care what date my caches are logged on. It the date won't stick I'll just log everything on whatever date shows up. I'm planning a trip soon where I might find up to 100 caches. I have no plans to keep changing the date for that many caches.

    I like to keep logs with the correct dates, but I'm now considering logging everything as I go using the app, rather than trying to write proper logs using a keyboard when I finish. It means logs will just be "TFTC", as I hate trying to write long texts on a crappy phone keyboard.

     

    Seriously, why is this such a problem?

    Sorry for the delay, but I can confirm that the team is still exploring options to make the log date sticky again and does plan to roll this out once they have completed the coding and testing. 

    @Frau Potter Can you confirm that the team is still working to fix this annoying bug? 5 months and counting, and though there is the get-around of using the old logging system, having to set the log type every time is almost as annoying as remembering to change the date with the new system.

  3. It's now been two months and it still isn't fixed. This is no longer merely frustrating; I am now getting angry that Groundspeak don't seem to care. It should be a simple bug to fix, but all they seem to care about is setting more and more ridiculous souvernirs. I have 31 caches to log today that I found yesterday, and will have to waste time fixing the date on every one.

    If you have a means to block scripts from certain websites (I use NoScript in FIrefox for that), you can disable scripts from

    • google-analytics.com
    • googletagmanager.com
    • googletagservices.com

    and websites still work.  And you have more privacy from that infamous company's tracking.

     

    While you're at it, cookiebot.com is nothing but trouble; block that too.

     

    I think that was part of the problem. When the problem first occured, I disabled all my add-ons, including the script blockers. All is working again now.

  5. After some experimentation, it seems to be my ISP (Virgin Broadband) that's causing issues. If I connect through my mobile data hot-spot it works fine. With Virgin Broadband, it seems to hang up with Google Analytics.

    I didn't know the leaderboard was used for anything outside of promotions.

    Yes, it was originally introduced as a way of comparing your finds with friends, and when it's not used for promotions it resets every Monday. TBH these promotions are getting a little tedious.

  7. Yet again the weekly friends league leaderboard has been taken over for use with the latest souvenir promotion. This time it's going to last a whole year. Is it not possible to create a new leaderboard for the souvenirs, and allow us to compare weekly statistics as before?
