Geocoin Code Update

[+Lemon Fresh Dog 0]

Hello all,

I just placed my new geocoin into one of my caches. I updated the HTML code and am getting the "Geocoin seen in this cache" image. However, it *should* say "Geocong is IN the cache" -- does anyone have info on how long it should take the update to occur?

 

The reason I ask is because I see it points to a URL and I would assume that the act of logging the coin creates a relationship between my cache # and the coin -- which should result in the new image being almost instantanious.

Sometimes when the server is busy, usually more so after a weekend, it takes a little while for a log to show up. Give it a little time, and come back if it doesn't show up on the page.

Hello there,

it's been about 6 hours. The log shows on the geocoin.ca site, but it doesn't change the little box to "Coins in cache" -- it does show that coins have been "sighted"

 

The cache in quesition is GCJN17 Summer Reading 3

 

I'll check later tonight -- it really isn't that big of a deal, but it would be nice if folks could see that the cache is loaded with a coin.

I think its broken. Just tried inserting the code for my Puppy is Sleeping cache, that has a geocoin logged in to it (and has for some time), and it still says that they have been seen in the cache, and not that it is there.

Perhaps it should be added that these are Canadian Geocoins we're talking about here.

Yup -- it's been over 24 hours and both of my recently released coins have no notation that they are in their caches (well, one cache is waiting approval, but the listing is a "sighted" only banner)

 

I guess folks will just have to read the logs to know if the coins are still in place.

Canadian geocoins aren't trackable through Geocaching.com as far as I know.

There's an HTML link from geocaching.com to the tracking site. It "should" update, but I am not sure where the problem originates. It's probably the tracking site.
