How to re-run challenge checker?

Question

I have logged a bunch of challenges, but not all do have a checker result on the "Challenges" tab, i.e. there is neither a green nor a red button on the right. Instead, there is no result shown at all. Manually running the checker, which IS linked on the cache page, does get a proper result.
I have tried updating one/all caches using the Self Service, but apparently that doesn't have an influence on the Challenges list.

So, how do I ask one/all checkers to be re-run and updated in the Challenges tab?

Answer 1

Refreshing caches via self-service refreshes the global cache information (D/T, size, etc) but does not rerun checkers for specific users. You can't request a refresh for all challenges, apart from running each one separately. The checker system will eventually refresh them, but for a challenge some distance from where you live it may take some time (the auto-checker system prioritizes challenge close to you).

thanks for your answer.
I wonder: if I go and manually run the checker of a specific cache on my profile, can the result be re-used then? I don't mind running the "missing" challenge checkers to get a full picture of what's fulfilled and what is not. waiting for an indefinite time is suboptimal.

If you run checkers manually, these results should be displayed on maps later. I'm not sure if this will affect when auto-checkers will run that checker itself, but it should at least show correctly on the map.

Apart from what pinkunicorn said the checkers in the profile stats would not be updated until your profile stats are re-rendered in 24 hours since they are not instant.
