Stat box for TB's


Parabola

Recommended Posts

Hello, Sorry if this has been addressed before which I'm sure it has been. I thought I had seen somewhere that you could change the url of your TB page, and it would make a neat square with a your TB's picture, how many miles, and where it was.

 

I'd like to get these for some of my bug's. And are they in html, so I could put them on my profile or say my blog or something.

 

Thanks for any help.

I've been meaning to post the steps in a new thread. Just haven't done the final edit.

 

Here's one that SUp3rFM & Cruella worked out.

 

1 - Upload an image to the TB and set it as default TB picture. Save it.

2 - Go to the TB page, choose the option of Edit item. You'll notice that the URL on that page ends up with something like guid=lots_of_numbers_and_letters. Copy those "lots_of_numbers_and_letters"

3 - Use the following url: "http://img.geocaching.com/stats/tb.aspx?guid=" where after the = sign, you should place the "lots_of_numbers_and_letters".

4 - You can start using the display feature. Just use it as <img src="http://img.geocaching.com/stats/tb.aspx?guid=lots_of_numbers_and_letters">. I don't think you can use the tag on the forums with this feature since it does not allow the display of dynamic images.

5 - If you want your TB display to point to the tb page, you'll have to make a "simple" link in HTML. It's like this:

 

<a href="http://www.geocaching.com/track/details.aspx?guid=lots_of_numbers_and_letters"><img src="http://img.geocaching.com/stats/tb.aspx?guid=lots_of_numbers_and_letters"></a>
