Is there a way to 'favourite'/'bookmark' challenge checkers?

Mon, 26 Feb 2024 11:30:40 +0000

Does anyone if there is a way to favourite/bookmark challenge checkers? This is specifically for checkers that aren't associated with a cache. For example, the leap year add-ons checker.

I am a paying member if that makes a difference for this feature.

Thanks in advance.

Enhancement request: favourites in favourite notification

Thu, 18 Mar 2021 07:23:21 +0000

Paying members can chose to recieve an email advising them of changes to favourite points, when someone favourites (or removes a favourite) from one of their caches. Every time I see this report the very next thing I always think is how many favourites does this cache now have? Every single time. It seems odd that having been told I have a recieved a favourite that I have to look elsewhere to find how many this cache now has.

In the notification email, at each cache summary, beside difficulty/terrain/size, could you please include total favourites (including those just added or removed).

Many thanks!

Receiving FP notifiactions with §OPTOUT§XXXX§ as the username

Fri, 01 Feb 2019 18:14:28 +0000

Myself and another cacher keep receiving email notifications for FPs where the FP was removed by §OPTOUT§XXXX§ (where XXXX seems to be a unique identifier)

It always seems to correspond to someone's name where they are giving a FP (and where they actually gave the FP a long time ago).

Thoughts?

Does project-gc count the total favourite points awarded on owned caches in another way than geocaching.com does?

Mon, 16 Jan 2017 06:32:41 +0000

My profil stats say I got 485 FPs from other geocachers. I manually checked this sum and according to geocaching.com it is "just" 467 FPs.

I am wondering what is responsible for this difference. I found no info in the FAQs or in previous threads of this support system.

My guesses would include FPs which were/are awarded to geocaches I owned once but now are adopted by someone else or FPs which were withdrawn (mostly due to archieving the cache).

Does anyone know someting about this issue?

Thanks and a have nice monday (if such a thing exists)

What's your best cache find of the year?

Tue, 13 Dec 2016 23:47:33 +0000

If you could award a favourite point to only one cache that you've found this year, what would it be, and why?

For me, my best cache would be "Scotland's First" (http://coord.info/GCF0), the oldest surviving cache in the UK. Whilst not quite as old as Europe's First near Dublin (which I found last year), it is far more of a challenge due to it's remoteness, and much more of a climb. Also I did it without a car, which meant a two mile walk each way before and after the climb. You can read my log here.

Combine "compare map" and "favourite search"

Fri, 16 Jan 2015 12:53:18 +0000

I'm missing one feature: The posibility to combine the "favourite search" with "compare map", or maybe there exists a way that I just haven't found yet.

When would this be useful? When I'm planning a trip with a friend to an area whe both me and him/her already has logged some caches. Then we would like to filer out.. the best caches that niether of us have found before.

Today I can search for caches that niether of us have found (compare map), and the best caches in the area (favourite, favorite %, wilson) but I can't combine these two results in some way?
