Third party logging websites

[+Optimist on the run]

Are there any third party websites (not apps) that will allow me to log caches from my laptop? I'm sick to death of having to repeatedly edit my logs to fix the found it date because I haven't logged it on the day in question.

Cachetur.no

I suspect that you need a geocachevisit.txt file to import find caches.

 

GSAK

A software that you can manage caches as a database. 

This is probably the best option as you can choose log dates manual on all caches.

I believe if you log via the website, as long as you don't close your session, the found date will carry over to the following logs as well.  So if you found 5 caches a month ago and want to log all of them today, once you put in the first date it should use that date for following logs.  I'm not 100% if that still works today but that was the case the last time I checked.

There is was a bug reported a few weeks ago, saying that this feature no longer works.

If you save it as a draft on the app, it will save the day automatically on the website

I'm a +1 as this is driving me insane. I don't log in the field and sometimes days after. Today I can't log anything because both my app and the website seem to be hanging while trying to populate the TB inventory list on the log page. AARRRGGGHHHH.

GSAK. Or just be more careful in your logging.

After writing a comment in this thread I've been made aware that mentioning a third-party app (instead of the official one, which isn't "third party" in my interpretation) isn't acceptable, and my contribution has been hidden (in a way that I seem to be unable to change or delete it). Third-party websites may be frowned upon the same way. *shrugs*

To clarify, the moderating team's message to you explained that your prior post was hidden from view because it described a workflow using an "unauthorized application," but the message went on to say that it is fine to "use the Geocaching forums to discuss the official Geocaching apps and authorized Geocaching Live! partner applications."  Therefore, it's fine to talk about solutions involving GSAK or Cachly, for example, because these authorized partners use the Geocaching API.  That said, the OP asks about websites, not apps.
