+irisisleuk Posted September 11, 2020 Share Posted September 11, 2020 (edited) In the e-mails I receive with logs on my own caches or those on my watchlist, the link in the name after "Logged by:" is incorrect. Instead of linking to the profile name of the logger it links to my own profile. Edited September 11, 2020 by irisisleuk 1 1 Quote Link to comment
+oakwilt Posted September 11, 2020 Share Posted September 11, 2020 I see the same thing. The top part of the new profile page are my photos and the bottom part is the stats of the person who logged my cache. On the old profile page the whole page is mine. 1 Quote Link to comment

I'm not referring to the profile page, the bug is just the link in the e-mails you get when someone logs a cache. Corrention on this comment: you are right, I didn't notice this difference, I thought it was just a wrong link, but it is even more weird.

+The A-Team Posted September 15, 2020 Share Posted September 15, 2020 This is still occurring for me. I received a couple of logs on one of my caches yesterday afternoon, and clicking the links takes me to my own profile. Oddly, the URLs in the links are different: http://coord.info/PRF9VEX http://coord.info/PR86Z1D When followed, they redirect to: https://www.geocaching.com/profile/?code=PRF9VEX https://www.geocaching.com/profile/?code=PR86Z1D ...yet, they both display my profile when followed. Maybe a bug with the part of the site that parses the "code" parameter? Quote Link to comment
+KCSearcher Posted September 15, 2020 Share Posted September 15, 2020 (edited) I am experiencing the same behavior. My Examples: Geodude2008 http://coord.info/PR2JZK8 https://www.geocaching.com/profile/?code=PR2JZK8 thedrainspies http://coord.info/PRGXNTK https://www.geocaching.com/profile/?code=PRGXNTK When they resolve, my profile is shown even though the https link is displayed in the URL line of my browser. Also, it indicates a warning the connection is "Not secure" . Edited September 15, 2020 by KCSearcher Quote Link to comment
+CAVinoGal Posted September 15, 2020 Share Posted September 15, 2020 (edited) I am NOT seeing this behavior at all - when I receive an email notification that someone found one of my caches, and I click on the cacher's name that found my cache, and I go their profile, as expected. Using Gmail, Chrome browser, Windows 10 laptop. Edited September 15, 2020 by CAVinoGal 1 Quote Link to comment

I just tested to make sure it wasn't that something had since been fixed, and I still see my own profile. Quote Link to comment
+Harry Dolphin Posted September 15, 2020 Share Posted September 15, 2020 I just noticed this today. (I don't usually click on the finder's name in the e-mail.) But it definitely happened today. Quote Link to comment

I see the correct profile when I follow those links - Yours direct me to miss_mylene and madre6095 KC's direct me to Geodude2008 and thedrainspies When you follow those links, they direct to your profile? Interesting indeed... Quote Link to comment
Moun10Bike Posted September 15, 2020 Share Posted September 15, 2020 Whether or not you see the buggy behavior depends on whether or not you have your preferences set to show the "old" profile page or the new one. Our devs are aware and are investigating. 3 Quote Link to comment
