+leosoul Posted December 31, 2009 Posted December 31, 2009 When I open http://www.geocaching.com/map/ I want it to center on my home coordinates. It does not do it for me and by default centers on Green Lake Seattle. Is there a way to make it work ? Leosoul
+Nils-Olov Posted December 31, 2009 Posted December 31, 2009 You can click on the 'Map It' icon on 'My Profile' page. I you want you can bookmark that page instead of the Geocache home page.
GermanSailor Posted December 31, 2009 Posted December 31, 2009 1. Have you entered your home coordinates? 2. Sometimes the serves are a bit slow, so at first you see the map of seattle, after a while your map loads. Happy new year! GermanSailor
+leosoul Posted January 1, 2010 Author Posted January 1, 2010 You can click on the 'Map It' icon on 'My Profile' page. I you want you can bookmark that page instead of the Geocache home page. That is a workaround...thanks for showing me...but I guess the homepage should automatically load my home coordinates. Any other suggestion ?

But its not redirecting to my home coordinates. As earlier pointed, either I have to MAP IT or enter my home town in the MAP Page search box. Its frustrating. Any other suggestions ?

Mine is doing the same thing - even with home coordinates input, google maps always loads to Seattle and doesn't change.... Not a big deal, but it would be nice if I could figure out how to default to home!
+Lil Devil Posted January 6, 2010 Posted January 6, 2010 It's simple. Just pan the Geocaching Google map to where you want to show, such as centered on your house, then click "Link to this page" at the top. Put that link into a bookmark in your browser. Then, all you have to do is select the bookmark and it will show the map you want.
