+kagiuk Posted April 9, 2020 Share Posted April 9, 2020 Hi. Is anyone else having problems listing recently hidden new geocaches. I wanted to get some done while I had time, even if they didn't go live yet. Quote Link to comment
Keystone Posted April 9, 2020 Share Posted April 9, 2020 What problems are you having? New cache pages continue to be submitted for review. Whether your cache is published is dependent upon local conditions. For example, the UK Reviewer team is not publishing any caches at this time. 1 Quote Link to comment

I cannot seem to get past the add the co-ordinates page....it keeps changing them automatically to somewhere else obscure in the world or doing nothing at all. Quote Link to comment
+K13 Posted April 9, 2020 Share Posted April 9, 2020 Hmm. We submitted 19 last evening with no issues. Now we wait for the Reviewer to do his part. Quote Link to comment
+LoggieOggie Posted April 9, 2020 Share Posted April 9, 2020 yeah, I have had 2 geocaches published recently it was working fine for me too Quote Link to comment

Are you sure you are using the correct coordinate format? Quote Link to comment
+kagiuk Posted April 10, 2020 Author Share Posted April 10, 2020 Yes...checked co-ords and formats over and over again. Quote Link to comment
+kagiuk Posted April 10, 2020 Author Share Posted April 10, 2020 Not even getting to reviewer stage sadly. Done exactly as I have before so no idea what is wrong! OK anyway thanks y'all, at least I know it is only me! Many thanks. K Quote Link to comment

I know on a Mac it's command+shift+4 that will allow you to take a quick screenshot. Not sure what it might be on Windows although I think I have a pair of scissors image associated with a screenshot on my old laptop where I use GSAK and occasionally log. Quote Link to comment
+kunarion Posted April 10, 2020 Share Posted April 10, 2020 (edited) 5 hours ago, kagiuk said: Yes...checked co-ords and formats over and over again. Which web browser and Operating System? Can you give an example of the coordinates? Based on your other cache, I'd expect yours to be very much like this: N 52° 33.060′ W 001° 16.126′ I used the above coordinates just now in IE11, with no issue. The cache page accepted the coords. If you're getting minutes out to 4 decimal places (as seen on some GPS displays), use just 3 decimal places instead. If you're getting coordinates from something other than a handheld hiking GPS (or one that's set to a non-Geocaching format), and need to convert them, here's a site where you can enter, convert, and test coordinates.

+EthisEthat Posted April 12, 2020 Share Posted April 12, 2020 Well, where I live. You can't have new caches published because Covid-19 and all that. Quote Link to comment
