+BCandMsKitty Posted April 26, 2008 Share Posted April 26, 2008 (edited) OK ... I've been searching for how to handle this, but can't seem to find the info I need. A bug has gone missing from one of our caches(GC17YH9). In January a cacher posted a find on the cache, and said that they had removed the TB in order to get the lid to close. However, they didn't log the TB out. I have since sent them 2 emails asking if they would log the bug out. No response. I have emailed the TB owner about the situation ... no response. Obviously, I would like to get this bug off the cache page so people aren't expecting to find it there. How do I get it out of my cache. Edited April 26, 2008 by BC & MsKitty Quote Link to comment
+BlueDeuce Posted April 26, 2008 Share Posted April 26, 2008 It's pretty straight forward. Just access the bug page and at the bottom of the Trackable Item Options there's a menu option for Mark Item missing. Click Go. Quote Link to comment
+BCandMsKitty Posted April 27, 2008 Author Share Posted April 27, 2008 I couldn't find that for the life of me! Thanks. Quote Link to comment

+Walts Hunting Posted May 6, 2008 Share Posted May 6, 2008 It's pretty straight forward. Just access the bug page and at the bottom of the Trackable Item Options there's a menu option for Mark Item missing. Click Go. That feature is only available on your own travel bugs. Not others.

I believe the cache owner has the option as well. Quote Link to comment

Any reviewer and the Hitchhiker Forum Mods can assist as well. Quote Link to comment
+joranda Posted May 8, 2008 Share Posted May 8, 2008 You could always post a note on your cache page to let cachers know that the travel bug is missing. Quote Link to comment
+BlueDeuce Posted May 8, 2008 Share Posted May 8, 2008 Wouldn't it be better to simply remove the bug from the listing? Quote Link to comment
