fish n Posted March 14, 2009 Share Posted March 14, 2009 I had a geocach that was unable to be posted because it was too close to another cach. It had a travel bug in it. So today I renamed the cach and hid it in a totally new spot with the travel bug in it. I was wondering how do I delete my old cach listing and how do I delete the status of my travel bug so that it does not say that its in my old cach but instead my new one?? Quote Link to comment
+StarBrand Posted March 14, 2009 Share Posted March 14, 2009 The proper thing to have done would be to re-use the old listing page with updated coordinates. There is no way to delete a page - only archive it. However, no need for that, just keep it and re-use it for your next hide. "grab" the Tb and it will be back in your possesion to re-drop.

+BlueDeuce Posted March 14, 2009 Share Posted March 14, 2009 (edited) "grab" the Tb and it will be back in your possession to re-drop. Yes, Grab or Retrieve the bug back into your Inventory. You can then delete the The Grab or Retrieve log on the bug page, and also the Drop log so the tracking stays accurate. Let us know if that's not clear. edit: missing s Edited March 14, 2009 by BlueDeuce Quote Link to comment
fish n Posted March 14, 2009 Author Share Posted March 14, 2009 Thanks!!!! So now I have the bugs location as "unknown". How do I list it as being in my new cach? Because I went to my new caches page and I clicked on "add a new log" and it didnt have a link or anything about dropping a bug. Quote Link to comment

Sorry Im new to this,thank you so much for your help though!!:] After you have the traveler in your possession, go to the page for that item and look in the "found it" drop down menu.

Create the log, and the bug will now be in your inventory. Go the cache page, and log a note, selecting that bug from the inventory list at the bottom of the page. That will drop it into the cache.
