+peter-tvm Posted April 2 Share Posted April 2 When I try to see the owned caches of a user the result is all geocaches in the world instead of the ones owned by the profile in seeing. All geocaches - all in the world Traditional - all traditional in the world Multi - all multi in the world An so on This appears to be a system wide bug/feature as it seen on several browsers.

+The_Jumping_Pig Posted April 2 Share Posted April 2 Yup. Same here. Using chrome. Quote Link to comment
+HHL Posted April 2 Share Posted April 2 The link to hidden caches by a cache owner on cache pages is also broken. Quote Link to comment
SnowstormMK Posted April 2 Share Posted April 2 Thank you for the reports, we are looking into it. 1 Quote Link to comment
+peter-tvm Posted April 3 Author Share Posted April 3 Yes, now the search results only shows the owners caches. Good that it was a bug that was easily fixed and kudos to the ones that made the repair to the code. Quote Link to comment

+Visyl Posted April 4 Share Posted April 4 Hello, Are you aware that the problem is not fixed for the Found Geocaches list ? When we click on "All Geocache Finds", all the caches in the world are shown. Quote Link to comment

Even for My Found Geocache, the map shows only the geocaches I have Found. Just need to click "Search this area" to refresh the map after moving the map to another location in the world Quote Link to comment
+luckycharmer Posted April 6 Share Posted April 6 (edited) My found caches are not working for me on I-phone or website on computer. Checked with both Chrome and Firefox, Geo app seems to work but I've never used it before. Edited April 6 by luckycharmer Quote Link to comment

I'm sure this is a (maybe not completely intended) side effect that you and also @luckycharmer decided to hide your history of logged caches. So currently for everybody who has hidden their log history the regular search for found caches will produce this weird output. But why do you search for your own hides within the regular search? You should click on "Logs" (left side on the new dashboard) or on "Geocaches" (top of old dashboard). Both lead to this page: https://www.geocaching.com/my/geocaches.aspx And while I'm here and already stated at another thread: I strongly oppose the decision of Groundspeak to let users hide their log history. I like to see (and consider this as a fundamental basis of the collaborative nature of geocaching) what caches anybody has found in the past and what they have to say about that caches. Eg when I read a meaningful log on a cache which I also enjoyed I like to explore what other caches that user enjoyed. Edited April 9 by Hynz 1 Quote Link to comment
+luckycharmer Posted April 9 Share Posted April 9 (edited) Thank you. That was the problem though. I did not even know you could hide your history of found caches or why I would want to. But I have no idea how it got changed like that after 18 years of caching. I prefer going through "my find" if I'm looking for the name of a mystery I found rather then the logs of maybe a hundred traditionals mixed in. Edited April 9 by luckycharmer Quote Link to comment
+Visyl Posted April 9 Share Posted April 9 (edited) Well, I don't care other geocachers to know the caches I found but I just don't want anybody to know where I am or what I did for my holidays. My friends can still see my found caches. Like luckycharmerl, I just want to be able to look for a specific cache for some reason among the caches I found on MY account (Profile/ Geocaches/ Geocaches Found (All Geocache Finds)). That lead us to a regular search with all caches in the world instead of the caches we found. We don't have access to our own found caches anymore, that's kind of crazy in my opinion.

+Visyl Posted April 9 Share Posted April 9 And in any case, it was working just fine 3 days ago. Quote Link to comment

As already written you just can click https://www.geocaching.com/my/geocaches.aspx and you can even decide what type of own logs (Found, DNF,....) you want to see. But admittedly you can't restrict on certain cache types as luckycharmer want to achieve. 22 hours ago, luckycharmer said: Thank you. That was the problem though.
