No matter what I do only North is accepted now.

It seemed a little glitchy to me.

Right, dunno, many things not making sense in WM site these days.

Just tested with Firefox. The same. South is not accepted. Every time I switch to S, it goes back to N in the next step.

Confirmed. Using Firefox, once I save the waymark the South changes to North. South is not being saved.

So, with you, only Firefox. With me, both. With other folks, who know. Waymarking.com is becoming a kind of poltergeist place.

Are you running the latest Windows 10 update - KB4556799?  Seriously, I'm not having any the issues everyone else is - but I'm still running Windows 8.  
There are numerous websites saying that this latest update is doggy doo - you seriously might consider going back to a restore point before that update was put on if you have it and see if that doesn't clear the issues.  Just a thought.  It seems awfully strange that all of these issues popped at the same time that Microsoft release did.  Just something to ponder...

Iconions....

 

1) It's not acceptable that a proper functioning of a website relies not in a browser but in an OS.

 

2) It's a simple thing. Either N or S. Combo box. Option. Besides, the issue is at the server side. Because the change is accepted, than apparently saved, and then... it was not saved. 

 

3) You mentioned Windows...  In my case, the issues are replicated in my Android phone.

 

4) For the record, I also use Win 8 in my main computer.

Again, it was just a thought and I was trying to help.  I don't waymark with my phone - I'm strictly a camera and GPSr person, that was the only reason I mentioned the Windows 10 upgrade.  I should remember that other people like their smartphones - mine is there just in case I'm stuck in the boonies somewhere.   

Waymarking is lucky to have any support from Groundspeak at all.

Yeah, well, I don't use the phone either, just for testing. I suspect the main reason why Waymarking.com was not discontinued yet it's due to its high ranking in SEO. It's amazing how often it shows in searches I am running in different subjects.

The test waymark I created with Chrome for Android won't let me switch back to North.  It's stuck on South and I cannot recycle it.

[+Torgut]

That's interesting. Meanwhile, regarding the original problem. it's a pity it's the S which is impossible to have. If it was N, it would be fixed faster :-)

[+Torgut]

Thanks to whoever fixed this! I can finally resume my WM's submissions! :-)

[+ScroogieII]

Again, I know I'm late to the party, BUT, has anyone ever thought to just put a minus sign in front of the Latitude (-) when things aren't working well in your latitude?

It might be worth a try.
