[Resolved] Creating a challenge checker
January 12, 2024 09:48AM
Hello.

Would it be possible to create a challenge based on getting a five star difficulty in different countries?

Ie, in order to qualify for this challenge you must have found at least one five star difficulty in two countries.

I could then build on this to five, ten, twenty etc for future caches once I have qualified myself.

Ps, I don't qualify for two yet myself, but will have by the end of tomorrow.

Kind regards

Adam

Can we have a GCcode to attach to the checker?

Hi.

I've not set up the cache yet, I just wondered if it was possible before I create one.

The last time I created a challenge It wasn't allowed due to time-based issues.

Kind regards

The checker is very easy to make but if we don't attach a GCcode it will be difficult to find back.

Ok thanks. I will get started on its creation then. As soon as it's done I'll be back. Thanks for the help.

Kind regards

Hi again, I'm finally back from my holiday and now qualify for my challenge. I have created the cache, it is https://coord.info/GCAJVFJ

So just to reiterate, the challenge is to find a cache of 5.0 difficulty in two or more countries. In this instance, the UK counts as only one country. Is that still all ok?

Thanks in advance for all the help.

Here is the link https://project-gc.com/Challenges/GCAJVFJ/85115

Remember that in geocaching world the UK is England, Scotland and Wales only

Northern Ireland = Ireland
and
Guernsey, Isle of Man, Jersey and Sark are countries

Please test and reply

Brilliant,
That worked perfectly, do I just copy the link into my cache page now?

Use this procedure
1. Open the link as provided
2. Click on in the "link" button on the right
3. Copy the code for the third option and paste it into your cache description
(You might need to first click on the green button above the description to put it in the right mode.)
4. Save & preview and submit for publication once you're happy with it.

If you don't see the usual challenge check icon you might need to click the Source button above the cache description box before you paste the code.
