• Rand McNally GPS devices join the roster of devices supported on the "Send to My GPS" tab.
• The new geocache details page was revamped with a new color scheme.
• The Geocaching Blog (formerly Latitude 47) received an updated look and feel to accompany the new name. Check it out at http://blog.geocaching.com .
• Bug fix retroactively awarded the Switzerland souvenir to those who earned it, but hadn't yet received it.

I'm still seeing the old cache details page. Is it still in random test mode?

Yes.

After update, I couldn't use Opera Mini. cachesites doesn't open anymore.. why?

 

I got error like. ' 403.6 - Forbidden

IP address of the client has been rejected.

The requested page can not be accessed via

anonymous proxies.'

So do I. I'm using Opera Mini in my mobile, because the listings (and geocaching.com pages generally) are data-consuming.

What happened to the ability to edit the post coordinates?

The same here. Should be changed quickly, because Opera Mini is in widespread use.

Only cache listings do not work, the rest of gc.com is ok.

Occasionally I'm getting caches (new look) that have changed font colors on the description and it's being extrapolated and applied to everything on the page. Makes some pages difficult to look at. Should the color changes be affecting all the logs and other info?

i have the same problem. 403.6 forbidden in opera mini. Where is the problem?

[+Mr Kaswa 1]

Same problem here.

[+JakeDanaiandConner 0]

and here! I also posted to the thread in the bug reporting for the geocaching.com website forum. I did some quick research on the error message and it looks like a whole chunk of IP addresses are blocked and its a setting thing on groundspeaks end. But I could be completely wrong, note the "quick research" line. I hope it is fixed soon.

See the thread in the Bug forum and the recent reply by the Admin.

I don't know if this is the right place to ask a question, but I'm just going to .

 

What happened to the WYSIWYG editor on the trackable-pages? It disappeared after the last update...
