DannyCaffeine Posted June 4, 2010 Posted June 4, 2010 Does anyone else have this problem? I click on the map and it does nothing :S The yahoo maps one does appear but the geocaching one at the bottom with the icons does not. WHy is this? It has been happening since the site update.
+edscott Posted June 5, 2010 Posted June 5, 2010 Lots of talk in the web site section of the forum, but no answers about what if anything they intend to do.
DannyCaffeine Posted June 5, 2010 Author Posted June 5, 2010 It works in firefox but not in IE 8. Definatly a bug. Well that explains it.
+chipchic Posted June 5, 2010 Posted June 5, 2010 I too have been having this problem since the site update. I have found however, that if you go to the top of the page where it says "Map it" you can access the map that way.

Its gonna be a pain till it gets fixed.
+edscott Posted June 5, 2010 Posted June 5, 2010 There are multiple bugs. The map toward the bottom right of the cache page has lost most of it's functionality and there are browser issues most of which involve various versions of IE.

M.TEX Posted June 5, 2010 Posted June 5, 2010 Yes I got the same problem here and I found another way to look the map. Near the map on the left side of the page there are many links . One of them is Geocaching with google map. Just click and you will see what you're looking for. But yes , they should fix this.. M.TEX
+leejas72 Posted June 5, 2010 Posted June 5, 2010 I noticed this the first day. What I did to solve the issue was to right click and then open in a new tab, or window, or page. Either way it will open and show other caches and be able to be zoomed in and out.
+edscott Posted June 5, 2010 Posted June 5, 2010 Yes but your new link does not give you a usable map on the cache page thus requires extra printing costs and time. Paperless is fine for those that do it but I don't think it should be pushed down our throats.
savant9 Posted June 6, 2010 Posted June 6, 2010 I didn't even notice this problem at home using Chrome, it wasn't until I was being "productive" at work (IE8) that I noticed this as well. But ya, simply clicking on the text at the left of the map to open in "Geocaching.com Google map" works fine.
