[Release Notes (Website only, Tagging Friends) - June 20, 2017]

' timestamp='1498059259' post='5661963']

Mmm, this may be a stupid question.. but what is this feature good for?

 

The name of the companion can also be written per keyboard and may be as fast as this feature.

On the other hand why should I want to know if someone is mentioning my user name in a log?

 

The idea is to be able to tag friend(s) if you're geocaching in a group. Take this example: two people were geocaching together, but only one person could record which geocaches were found. The person recording could mention the other in all their logs. The person who was not recording can now easily see which caches they found together(and log em of course!).

 

My girlfriend is usually behind on her logs...she simply brings up my profile page and uses that to see what caches we found together...so I'm with fraggle...what is this feature good for?

[Maps in the statistics page]

I had this problem a week or two ago and when I went to look again so I could report it, the maps were working.

 

At this time I am seeing the same problem as SisqoKid.

[Release Notes (Website: Send to Garmin) - April 10, 2017]

I like the hooks into search & lists for this. Since most of the backend work is done to create a GPX to send to the GPS from a list, would it be possible to add another option on the list page "Save as GPX" in addition to "Send to GPS"? I'd rather manage my GPX files on my GPS myself so I'd like to download the GPX from the list page and bypass the Garmin plugin. I can create a PQ from the list page, but that's a bit more cumbersome than just downloading the GPX from the list page.

 

This way, we who do not have Garmins can play, too.

["Edit Attributes" hidden, "Cache owner actions" puzzle]

I'm about to log maintenance on one of my caches and the Edit Attributes link is still there. I don't see the Cache Owner actions link you mentioned. Everything looks just like I remember it.

 

Perhaps you came upon some Groundspeak work in progress?

[Instant Notify not working]

A friend asked if I saw her new cache and I hadn't. Another one I didn't get the notification of publish.

 

When can we expect resolution to this problem?

[Mission GC Summer Souvenirs]

Go to the gc.com home page (the New search page) and scroll down a little...

[Field Notes glitch]

I didn't completely understand this post at first, but now that I'm trying to catch up on my logs, I certainly do. Please fix it. One step forward, two steps back...

Firefox 45.0.2

[500 server error when trying to archive cache]

I also got a Server Error 500 when trying to Update Coordinates on a cache. Normal browsing on the site seems OK.

 

Firefox 45.0.2

[500 - Server Error]

Parts of the site seem to be working off and on, but there are still issues, including the occasional Server Error.

 

There's several threads going already and Keystone tells us they are working on it.

 

I guess it's time to go watch TV.

[Spam messages.]

I've got two so far. Heres a good reason to be able to delete messages from the Message Center.

[D/T Avg missing]

I've also seen this problem recently and seems to be happening now, even after a few refreshes.

Using Firefox 38.0.5.

[Check your Hides, dear owners!]

Straying just a bit here, but I thought the oldest active cache in Ontario is Deer Bait, hidden 2/17/2001. GC2B4

[KML export of caches from bookmark list does not use corrected coordinates]

I just noticed this problem today when adding a mystery cache to a bookmark list. Now I see it is an old issue.

 

Is there an easy workaround? Are there any plans to fix it?

[[Question] Field Notes date stuck in future]

The "Clear All Field Notes" button will also reset that date. You may need to upload some notes (un-checking the box) in order to get the button to appear.

 

Thanks Lil Devil, worked like a charm!

[[Question] Field Notes date stuck in future]

I don't know how, but somehow my GPS marked a find in the Visits file on 10/7/2018. I noticed it while logging so corrected the date. The problem is, the website now thinks my latest find is in 2018. So whenever I go to upload Field Notes, it considers that to be the date of my last find and won't upload my current finds unless I uncheck the box. I don't always delete the Visits file from the GPS, so if I uncheck the box, I am bound to get older (already logged)finds uploaded again.

 

Is there a way to reset the Field Notes date on the website? I've uploaded current files that have correct 2015 dates, but the website is retaining the latest found date as 10/7/2018.
