Geocaching HQ has just posted a new topic entitled "Release Notes - April 7, 2015" in forum "Release Notes".

We’ll be the first to admit it: contacting other geocachers hasn’t always been the easiest thing to do on Geocaching.com. We heard your feedback and that’s why we’ve created the brand new Message Center beta.

 

With this new feature, you can send and receive messages from Geocaching.com. It’s still in beta testing, which is why we’d love your feedback for the final release. After you send a few messages, fill out this survey (https://www.surveymonkey.com/r/geocachingmessagecenter) and tell us what you think.

 

Features include:

 

 

Access the Message Center from the new envelope icon in the header

Start a new one-to-one conversation with another geocacher

Send an image (and you can even drag and drop the image into the Message Center!)

URLs will automatically hyperlink in messages

GC and TB codes will automatically hyperlink in messages

Check “Press Enter to Send” to default send by pressing the “Enter” button

Hide message threads from view in the Message Center

Block another geocacher’s messages from appearing in your Message Center

Receive email notifications about new messages

 

Note: The Send Email to User feature (http://www.geocaching.com/email/?guid=1b5e224a-bff1-476c-9c8c-2ddb2e2e1260) will continue to exist for the foreseeable future.

 

Have questions? We’ve got answers. Check out this FAQ in the Geocaching Help Center (http://support.Groundspeak.com/index.php?pg=kb.page&id=664).

I don't see it in the forums and when I click the link to see the topic I get engulfed in pink smoke.

I noticed a link "message center" about 45 minutes ago. The site answers to the click and opens something called message center, but it has a very "beta" feel about it... more like "alpha". But may be the installation is not finished yet; moun10bike posted something about an update rolling out about an hour ago. I'll look again tomorrow.

With this new feature, you can send and receive messages from Geocaching.com.

 

 

Well, for me, it continually asked me to enter my userid and password to log in

 

... Over and Over and Over again. I didn't get anywhere! I know it's Beta, so I'll try it again in a few hours/days. ....

 

Yippee, I was able to successfully send and receive a message from Paracelsus!
