  1. I do a lot of craft and quickly learnt that there is no one glue. I have a big box of different kinds for different jobs and surfaces. One thing I use often on caches is sealant. Not sure if there is a more technical name. A clear-ish smelly gel that dries to a solid rubbery form. It’s flexible and waterproof and you can buy types meant for outdoors. I have a cache where a snail was attached and that remains good as new 5/6 years later. Another similar one lost most of the snail, birds I suspect, and all that remained was a snail shaped lump of sealant still attached to the container. Sometimes basic PVA glue will do the job, or the super glue stuff that comes in two tubes that you mix. The latter is not very flexible though. I don’t think we have ever relied totally on one thing though. A mixture of glue and, say, wire will often do the trick. Try out different things, leave it outside as a trial and see.
  2. Thank you for all your interesting replies and help.
  3. Exercise is important, caching isn't, fun yes, but not essential. Handling caches may prove a risk to others as well as yourself, it may not, but why take a chance? it is no longer a matter of keeping yourself safe and healthy it’s about keeping everyone. Your actions today could impact someone down the line.
  4. Thank you on4bam, I don’t use GSAK unfortunately. I’ve started the rather tedious task of doing them one at a time.
  5. Thank you, I thought that was probably the case.
  6. I’m thinking of temporarily disabling our caches but as there are a lot I was wondering if there was a way to do all of them in one action. Thank you.

    DNF PQ?

    Wow. Thank you Hans (HHL). That’s very kind of you. 208 left to avenge!

    DNF PQ?

    Is it possible to produce a PQ of logged DNFs which remain unfound. I have the log list of DNFs but that of course includes those subsequently found. I cannot use GSAK as my laptop is unwell!! I’m hoping to avoid going through a list and selecting individual caches. Thank you.
  9. Now sorted. Many thanks niraD. I went through the code and removed all references to height, leaving width the same. In the end it was easily sorted and not the big problem I feared it would be.
  10. Sorry I don’t know how to reply to a particular posting. Thank you niraD. There wasn’t a problem before but I am aware changes have been made. I will have a play. After all I can’t really make things worse! Most of the icons don’t add anything to the profile they are just vanity. I am coming round to the idea of deleting everything and starting again. I just panicked a bit and over reacted as I was concerned about the puzzle which is now disabled until this is sorted. Of course anyone who has seen my posts here or on Facebook will now know how to solve it.
  11. Thank you. I have amended my original post.
  12. This is my first forum posting and hope this is on the right part of the forum. No doubt someone will help and put me right if there is a more appropriate place to post I have a strange problem on our public profile that I’m hoping someone can help with. Some of the links such as CM stats and others are not showing properly. The linked pictures are just loading as very long stretched images. A few are OK and others such as My Geocaching Profile stats aren’t showing at all. I haven’t done anything to the settings so have no idea why it’s all gone haywire. I’m really hoping someone can help or I will have to delete going on for 6 years worth of work on the profile. One of our own puzzles requires access to our profile to work, hence my concern. As multiple different sources are involved it seems that this must be a GC issue as they are the only common link. I emailed the powers that be and they suggested I log out, remove cookies, and log back in. I did that and no change. They also said if that didn’t work to change browser. That also didn’t work. I’ve had no further help so I guess they have washed their hands of of the problem. It looks as if I’m going to have to bite the bullet and delete everything and start again. Unless someone can help. Someone on Facebook suggested turning off my add blocker. I did and again no change. Turning off and on again. No change. Friends have checked the profile and are seeing the same as us so it’s not just my iPad and PC playing up. Thank you. As requested. I use Safari but have tried on Chrome with the same results.
