+oboegary & delaware hiker Posted May 11, 2010 Share Posted May 11, 2010 As a cache owner, I have posted photos and more importantly a trail map to the gallery. For items added to the gallery by cache finders, you are able to go to the picture and click to enlarge. But, if the Cache Owner posted the picture and you click on it, it just returns you to the cache information. I use Windows XP and Vista and IE but problem seems to be on all. It seems to be because their is no log related to the picture, but older versions of geocaching.com did not have this problem (some years ago). Any suggestions - especially on including the trail map? Any thoughts about changing this oddity in future updates? See you on the trails.... oboegary & delaware hiker Link to comment
+xamiam Posted May 16, 2010 Share Posted May 16, 2010 (edited) I have noticed the same issue, if you try to enlarge a photo from the cache owner all it does is take you back to the cache description page. Is this going to be fixed? Is this where we are supposed to report problems? I was able to view the photo by right-clicking on the photo and opening it in a new tab, using Google Chrome.

Hurrah, hurrah; the system works. This is the right way to report problems and it is fixed. Thanks for responding, xamiam. I thought maybe either there was a work around that I didn't know about, but if others noticed then it's a good thing to get in the forum. To Raine and the other programers. Thanks from the vain photographers and from the geocachers looking for the trail map so they don't have to bushwack. Link to comment

See you on the trails.... oboegary & delaware hiker I've been having the same problem, and I've just found that clicking the image link from the cache description page (just above the logs) works OK, even if the gallery link doesn't. At least, that did it for the cache I'm looking for now. I'm using Firefox, by the way... Link to comment
+oboegary & delaware hiker Posted June 5, 2010 Author Share Posted June 5, 2010 (edited) That is right for IE8 as well, gsbohr and others reading this. Seems that the programmers made a reasonable fix to me. My cache only has two things in the gallery, but many are full and you wouldn't go there for the map anyway. You would look in the cache description area at that link. Thanks for the input. Edited June 5, 2010 by oboegary & delaware hiker Link to comment
