[Resolved] Looking for an existing checker

[Resolved] Looking for an existing checker
February 13, 2019 01:50AM
Hello,
I hope this is the right place to ask this question.
I have tried every key word I can think of searching in the challenge checker search, but cannot find the following particular checker.
I am looking for a challenge checker for finding a traditional cache on every Placed Date of the 365/366 calendar. So for example, find a cache that was Placed on 2/16 or 9/22, and the whole whole 12 month calendar must be filled in that way. The placement year is irrelevant.
At this point the checker could be either 365 or 366 days.
I would like to create such a challenge, but don’t know at this point whether or not I qualify myself (pretty sure I do) and I don’t want to ask for a checker to be made that I can’t use.
There is already such a checker for a Mystery on every Placed date, so I know something similar already exists.
If there is Not such a thing, I can go to the checker request section and request one.
Thanks to anyone who can help.

Such a script already exists. Give us your GC code and we will provide you with a checker linked to it.

I don’t have a GC code for a cache yet. I was hoping just to use an existing checker first to see if I qualified before I made up a cache page. If there is such a checker in existance and attached to a challenge cache, I would just use that to check. If that is not possible I can create a cache page. You are clear that this is for traditional caches only?

You qualify, ie. you have found a traditional cache placed on every date in the 366 day calendar.

I have a GC number for the challenge then, since you confirmed I qualify.
GC83GRH. The Emerald Placed On Date Challenge
It will be a challenge for 366 days.
Is it possible to request a checker here?
If possible, I would also like the output to show a 366 calendar with bright green little traditional cache icons in every date. I hope this isn’t too much to ask.
Thanks very much for your time and help.

Here's your checker:

https://project-gc.com/Challenges/GC83GRH/40543

Please test and let us know if it's suitable. And yes, I've moved this thread to the request forum.

I have run the checker to see if other people in the community qualify before I submit the cache to the reviewer.
Can the counter be reset back to 0 before I attach it to the cache page please?
Is that possible?
Thank you.

Unfortunately those counters can't be reset.

That is ok.
Thank you.
I guess I am ready for the html tag for the cache now.
Idk if this is important to you or not, the cache has been renamed The Hidden Emeralds Challenge. GC83GRH
Thanks again.

The cache name is not important, as long as you include the word Challenge somewhere in the name. And yes, the cache name will appear on the checker as soon as your cache is published, since Project-GC doesn't have access to unpublished caches.

can I get the html tag so I can attach it to the cache page please?

Here's how to do it: open the checker link and click on the "Link" button on the right (sixth button on my side). Then copy and paste the third option into your cache description. In this case, the html is:

<a href="https://project-gc.com/Challenges/GC83GRH/40543"><img src="https://cdn2.project-gc.com/Images/Checker/40543"; title="Project-GC Challenge checker" alt="PGC Checker"></a>
