+Heidee_Hunter Posted March 20, 2013 Share Posted March 20, 2013 On the Groundspeak support/help www page, under trackables-fancier features, section 2.2 2.2. Displaying Several Trackables on the Same Page, Good For Races the following instructions appear... 1. Find the GUID of all the Trackables you want to include. 2. Insert that GUID at the end of this URL format: http://img.geocaching.com/stats/tb.aspx?guid=96d1611496d16114-beb That is, in the above example, replace everything after "guid=" with the guid number of your own Trackable Items. My question is… How do you find the GUID of a trackable? Is the GUID the number on the coin itself? Or is it the reference ID “TB12345”? or something else? Quote Link to comment

It is neither, it is a code for the home page of the trackable. For instance your "Tiki Man" TB has a GUID of 4116655 Cheers Quote Link to comment
+Heidee_Hunter Posted March 20, 2013 Author Share Posted March 20, 2013 OK, so then do you have any idea why this html snippet (as per the support note) doesn't work?

+Isonzo Karst Posted March 20, 2013 Share Posted March 20, 2013 (edited) TB has a GUID of 4116655 that's not a guid, that's an Id number A guid Id is going to be 32 characters long, with 4 dashes If you post a log to your own trackable, you'll see that guid as part of URL of the log page. I went to post a log on your Tiki Man TB the log page URL looks like this: http://www.geocaching.com/track/log.aspx?wid=8431a9b0-8ed3-4f1b-85bd-f6e052828cca 8431a9b0-8ed3-4f1b-85bd-f6e052828cca that's the GUID You'll find that if you click the trackable name, FROM the log page, you'll be sent back to the trackable page, with the GUID used in the URL. http://www.geocaching.com/track/details.aspx?guid=8431a9b0-8ed3-4f1b-85bd-f6e052828cca Edited March 20, 2013 by Isonzo Karst Quote Link to comment
