markandlynn Posted March 16, 2007 Share Posted March 16, 2007 (edited) A few people have commented on our profile page (thank you) It was created by uploading our My Finds PQ (see the bottom of this page) It is important that when you go to the Its Not about the numbers website that you create a login account and tell the site which country you come from in the preferences section It can then generate the HTML for your profile or any other webpage you want. It also lets you see the top ten for any country and overall stats that you want. In addition you can compare yourself to other cachers who have also uploaded their stats by ticking boxes on the search pages. This compares more than just number of finds it gives you average terrain and difficulty, the length of your online logs amongst other things like counties and countries visited. It does not currently separate finds in other countries from the list so you will be pushed down the lists by some of the people who have visited america recntly Hope you find it interesting and dont push us to far down the lists but as its not about the numbers dont worry to much. edit to add preferences section so it knows where you live Edited March 16, 2007 by markandlynn Quote Link to comment

+walkergeoff and wife Posted March 16, 2007 Share Posted March 16, 2007 At last I've got it working. My PQs come in zm9 format (don't know why!) and the upload wouldn't work. I converted it to .zip format, and it worked! []. So my previous contribution to this thread is redundant. But why do these files come in zm9 format? Quote Link to comment
markandlynn Posted March 16, 2007 Author Share Posted March 16, 2007 That link takes you to a page where you can log in, but not where you can create an account. Or am I missing something I should of added that when you first upload a my finds pq you need to type in a password at the same time. You can then login and use the preferences page to set your home country Quote Link to comment

+Hi-Tek Posted March 21, 2007 Share Posted March 21, 2007 Excellent utility, many thanks for allowing us all to use it. One small request - could the output date format be dd/mm/yyyy not mm/dd/yyyy as it is now? Quote Link to comment
+The Hoffies Posted April 17, 2007 Share Posted April 17, 2007 Just been looking at our caching milestones and noticed the following statement below the graph: "Based on your overall rate of 0.12 finds per day, you'll find number 200 around 11/28/07 and the big 1000 around 2/27/26." Hold fire on the "big" congrats thread If your stats are similar I suggest we have a race! Any takers? Keep smiling Dirk Quote Link to comment

Yes they have had some issues with popularity on a monday morning when everyone does thier my finds query and overloads the site (sound familiar to another sites issues ?). Have a read of the blog for more details they now have over 3600 people using the site on a weekly basis. Quote Link to comment
Nediam Posted April 23, 2007 Share Posted April 23, 2007 Cheers markandlynn I had read the blog over the weekend when I was having trouble logging in. Unfortunately I haven't been able to log in at all since submitting my file last week. I was just seeing if any other people had got problems or if it was just something I had done I've resubmitted my file with a new password a couple of times just to check I wasn't typing it incorrectly. Guess it just may take a little time for the server to sort itself out Quote Link to comment
+The Hoffies Posted April 23, 2007 Share Posted April 23, 2007 Does anyone know how to get rid of an 'uncalculated' UK / Ireland County (under Finds by Location)? I know which cache it is, but don't know how I can allocate the correct county to it. Thanks Quote Link to comment
+beejay&esskay Posted April 23, 2007 Share Posted April 23, 2007 I found yesterday that the "uncalculated" (for the US) took quite some time to process...perhaps 6 hours. How long have those caches been uncalculated? (If days, then I would guess it is an issue with the files that describe the county the cache is in.) Quote Link to comment
Nediam Posted April 23, 2007 Share Posted April 23, 2007 Just tried to get into the site and got this message.... "I'm currently in the process of moving INATN to its own host. Unfortunately, you stathounds are going to be stuck for a couple days until I get everything moved and back in order. Sorry about the inconvienience! -Dave P.S. If you're seeing this note, then you're viewing this page from the new server, so that's a good start... " Looks promising Good luck Dave, hope you get it running OK Quote Link to comment
+thunderbird30 Posted April 28, 2007 Share Posted April 28, 2007 Looks like this site is still having problems..... Quote Link to comment
+beejay&esskay Posted April 28, 2007 Share Posted April 28, 2007 I'm able to access the site and view information including maps of finds that don't require any new "work" by the site. Other summary information that I think it does on the fly (like US map of counties with finds) is very slow, but it does finally work (for me.) Quote Link to comment
Nediam Posted April 28, 2007 Share Posted April 28, 2007 I'm still having problems logging into the site I can upload stats and view them by searching for my caching name, but when I try to log in with my password, I get an error message I've tried contacting the owners but as yet have had no reply. Hoping that it's just a waiting game and it will sort itself out eventually Quote Link to comment
Nediam Posted April 30, 2007 Share Posted April 30, 2007 I posted a comment on the latest blog on the INATN site stating I was still having password problems. Dave has just replied with this comment:- "Dave - April 30, 2007 @ 5:21 am There’s something going on with the password system that I’m overlooking. I’m still trying to figure out what…" Looks like he's working on it Quote Link to comment
Nediam Posted May 1, 2007 Share Posted May 1, 2007 I've just tried the site again and it all seems to be working fine I can now log in and set my preferences. Thanks Dave for sorting it, hope it wasn't too much of a pain. Cheers Quote Link to comment

The site has been updated recently and it may not have your password. Just re-upload your zipped GPX file with a new password and see how it goes. If the site hasn't been fixed then it may just be that my data has finally been processed, in which case you may need to wait a few days or so. Quote Link to comment
