+TxStrawberryCreek Posted August 6, 2018 Share Posted August 6, 2018 Is anyone else having problems with Finding Caches along a route? Three times today, with different browsers, I've tried to set up a route, with no luck. Today is NOT my first attempt to do this. I've done several Route PQs in the past. I clicked to Create New Route, specified the name of the route, then I get taken to a page where I specify the beginning and ending point. Then I click "Search," and the map box remains empty. After several tries of doing that, I decide to try to "Save Changes," and the resulting page says my route is 0 miles long. I have a support email in to Geocaching, but I just wonder if anyone else is having this problem. Again, this has happened today under Windows 10, on both Firefox and MSIE browsers.

+Jayeffel Posted August 6, 2018 Share Posted August 6, 2018 I'd help, but have no idea what you are doing! Don't know anything about routes as applied to geocaching. I am sure you will be inundated with advice. Good caching to you. Quote Link to comment
+GeoTrekker26 Posted August 7, 2018 Share Posted August 7, 2018 I encountered the same non response when trying to create a short route (<50 miles). I tried various combinations of end point designations, zip to zip, city to city, address zip to address zip and all failed when I pressed search. I’m using Win 10 and Firefox 61.0.1.

+captnemo Posted August 7, 2018 Share Posted August 7, 2018 Set up a route last night about 250 miles long without any problem. Created the PQ downloaded it my GPS and used it today. I using Win 10 and Chrome. Check your list of routes you just might find it there. Quote Link to comment
+HHL Posted August 7, 2018 Share Posted August 7, 2018 I just set up a route flawlessly. Hans Quote Link to comment
+GeoTrekker26 Posted August 7, 2018 Share Posted August 7, 2018 I tried it again today and it is working. It would be nice if GS would provide a notice that they fixed a problem if someone went to the trouble to report it. Quote Link to comment

When those started popping up, the release was rolled back. It wasn't a matter of quietly fixing a single item. Quote Link to comment

Perhaps a notice along the lines of "We rolled out a change earlier today that broke a number of functions, and we've rolled it back." would help the customers know what's going on and prevent them wasting time trying to fix now non-existent issues. 1 Quote Link to comment

Either way, I'm sure people would complain. 2 Quote Link to comment
+captnemo Posted August 8, 2018 Share Posted August 8, 2018 Just tried to make a new route and it's not working Quote Link to comment
+GeoTrekker26 Posted August 8, 2018 Share Posted August 8, 2018 Either it is still broken, or you fixed it with the rollback and broke it again. In any case, it is not working. Quote Link to comment
