+Olsonkidz Posted September 29, 2013 Share Posted September 29, 2013 Is there a way to have the DNF icons show up on the map like the smileys? It would be nice to see when looking at a map and I would assume if you've found it or its been archived it would either change to a smiley or disappear off the map in the case of a archived. I would like to see this on the map myself! Thanks Quote Link to comment

It's the forum for suggestions/bug reports, and where you will be able to find the various threads requesting "dnf's" to appear on the map: http://forums.Groundspeak.com/GC/index.php?showforum=139 B.

+Ms.Scrabbler Posted September 30, 2013 Share Posted September 30, 2013 Once upon a time we had them, they would show up in blue. Don't know why they took them away. Quote Link to comment
+Dogmeat* Posted September 30, 2013 Share Posted September 30, 2013 I'd like that if they would show up on the map. Wonder why they took that away.. Quote Link to comment
Moun10Bike Posted September 30, 2013 Share Posted September 30, 2013 We have a story for this request in our backlog. It is just a matter of it getting prioritized in a development schedule. As far as I can recall, the site has never shown DNFs on the map. Quote Link to comment
+J Grouchy Posted October 3, 2013 Share Posted October 3, 2013 (edited) I still think it should keep the cache graphic on a different color background (instead of a blue frowny face) - similar to how a disabled cache is grayed out on the map. That way you could still see what type of cache it is but instantly know whether you looked for it already. Edited October 3, 2013 by J Grouchy Quote Link to comment
+redsox_mark Posted October 3, 2013 Share Posted October 3, 2013 It doesn't show it on the map, but I have found the feature (which was added sometime back) to show the DNF status clearly on the cache page useful. When you see a unfound cache on your map and click on it to bring up the cache page to see it. Quote Link to comment
