+gregzll Posted October 4, 2009 Share Posted October 4, 2009 Can someone share with me the process of "Dropping" a trackable into a cache after I previously logged a "find" Quote Link to comment
+secretagentbill Posted October 4, 2009 Share Posted October 4, 2009 I believe that you can drop a trackable while logging a "note" on a cache. Quote Link to comment
Keystone Posted October 4, 2009 Share Posted October 4, 2009 I am moving this thread from the Geocaching Topics forum to the Travel Bug forum. Quote Link to comment
+Gitchee-Gummee Posted October 4, 2009 Share Posted October 4, 2009 (edited) You should "Edit" that log entry (without actually editing what you wrote)......... scroll down to the bottom of that page and highlight the traveler that you wish to drop into that cache, then "submit". EDIT: You can do the same by logging a "note", as mentioned. Edited October 4, 2009 by Gitchee-Gummee Quote Link to comment
+Cache O'Plenty Posted October 4, 2009 Share Posted October 4, 2009 (edited) You can't drop a TB by editing the find log. The drop field isn't available. There are two ways to do it that I know of. 1. Delete the original find log and do it again. (Copy the text of your log to your clipboard to paste to the new one) 2. Create a Note log. The TB field will be available there. Just a comment like "Oops, bug drop" to explain why the note. Edited October 4, 2009 by Cache O'Plenty Quote Link to comment

Many cachers will also go back and delete their "Oops, bug drop" Note log to reduce the clutter on the cache page. Deleting this Note log on the cache page will not in any way affect the traveler.
