  1. A minor quibble. The link to Google Maps, e.g.:

     

    http://maps.google.com/maps?q=S 41° 05.087 E 175° 00.599 (GC3C0XF)+

     

    Results in the following text on Google Maps:

    Showing results for S41° 05.087 E175° 00.599. Search instead for S 41° 05.087 E 175° 00.599.

     

    Following that extra link then responds with:

    Did you mean: S41° 05.087 E175° 00.599

     

    Can the website be updated to remove the spaces after S/N, E/W? This is either a recent change by gc.com or Google Maps.

    There's serious real-time privacy concerns with this. I doubt this will ever happen.

     

    How often do you go back and review an Adventure after the fact, and not right when you've completed it and the prompt pops up?

     

    However, unless it's sequential, there isn't a way to tell what location a user is when they complete the Adventure. (first three finders notwithstanding)

  3. What I would really like to see is a way to filter caches that DON'T have a selected filter, e.g. puzzle caches that aren't AdLab bonus caches.

    And while I'm at it, the current attribute filter options only allow for positive attributes, not negative (unless they come up with both in the results).

    It’s on greasyfork.

     

    It currently doesn’t do anything with the old shortdescription and related website portions of the cache page. I’m currently on a skiing trip so no support from me until the end of next week, but feel free to modify it as you see fit.

    Thank you! It works perfectly!

     

    I tried writing my own by removing the listener but couldn't work out where it was being attached. Your way of just ignoring the propagation is wonderfully elegant.

    Will there be a way to opt out of having this appear on each and every log I might want to read? 

     

    If you use the project-gc integration script, I've added a feature request to provide a toggle (similar to the other integration options).

    If you use a plugin for your own custom CSS (e.g. Stylebot), you could add this rule:

    div.upvotes{display:none !important}

    Or use the uBlock origin content block snippet provided by @koeniglich above

     

    Edit: I've contributed to the project-gc integration script and the changes have been released.

    Moving on... because topic...

     

     

    To @Oceansazul and @nykkole - are there plans to implement more attributes in the web search, and the ability to filter in and exclude?  Even if it's somewhere down the line :) 

     

    Please, please, please give us the ability to exclude attributes. Here's my default view of all my unsolved puzzles in New Zealand (newest first). There's only two in that list that aren't AL Bonus caches, and I want to be able to filter out the bonus caches:

    This assumption is correct.

     

    One of my 5 locations is "physical". I had to create a dummy geocache listing of type "Multi", populate it only with the locations of my physical Adventure Labs (in may case, only one), and ask a reviewer to do a location check on this listing. When this was done, the reviewer told me that I can now archive the dummy listing, because it's no longer needed. I didn't do that, though, to keep my physical Adventure Lab waypoint "known" in the database. Otherwise, someone might unknowingly put a real geocache right at the same spot.

     

    If you have a bonus cache for your AL, you could just add the AL waypoints to it and set them to physical, which takes care of the proximity issues.

     

    Another reason for adding the waypoints to the bonus is that it lets the finders know where they would be going outside the AL app. I did it this way for my AL (except as virtuals), as I was trying to make it tourist-friendly.

     

    I wish it was more common to do it this way. There are four ALs in central Sydney and I've only got one day for cache hunting, so it would be nice to be able to easily see where all the waypoints are and for which AL without swapping between them in the app (and my gc app of choice for the other caches). (Although only one of them is a visit in any order, with the others being point-to-point).

    ETA: (yes: the source HTML in some of my older descriptions which used uploaded images refers to imgcdn.geocaching.com - the Canada server presumably - and images are loaded via redirect to amazonaws)

     

    @thebruce0: imgcdn means the server is part of a Content Delivery Network (if it was country-based, it would have been imgca :) )

  9. Finish the (now archived) challenge series of 250 finds in each month - Februrary and May to go. Feb shouldn't be an issue - going to Sydney for a conference so booked in an extra day to make sure I grab Lane Cove - the only cache outside of the US that's older than the one I have.

     

    Hopefully the fires will be under control so I can breathe crossing the SHB.
