How Do I Adopt A Cache?

[+media601]

How do I adopt someone's caches when the original owner agrees to the exchange? Most of the adoption information I've found in the forums deals with abandoned caches and unresponsive owners. Thanks in advance.

Ok that works if someone has requested that I take over a cache, but how does the cache owner put the site up for adoption? As an experiment I entered a cache that I own and still got the message: "You have not been asked to adopt that cache'.

Good question. I submitted one of my own, also, and still got the same message.

Just ask the agreeable cache owner to go to that URL.

sept1c_tank and myself tried that and entered our own caches as an experiment to see what forms appear when someone puts a cache up for adoption. We both got the same message--"You have not been asked to adopt that cache". Is this a bug in the site?

Same results for me too!

Jeremy has made another fix to the adoption page to correct issues with the adoption page. There is also some discussion in this thread in the website forum.

 

Since you are having issues with the site, this topic now belongs over there. I'm going to close this one in favor of the topic linked above.
