The Build GPX queue is long due to GC API issue... how to build GPX now?

Tue, 22 May 2018 17:31:02 +0000

Project-GC.com is having trouble with the groundspeak API and is showing a banner:

"We are currently experiencing issues with connecting to the Gecocaching.com LIVE api. This potentially affects both our authentication system and how we retrieve data."

I'm planning my trip and need to generate GPX files from the Virtual-GPS, but they build queue is really deep and it seems no GPX files are being generated.

I don't need the latest data, but need to get my GPX generated. What can I do?

Stable sort: sort by Difficulty and Terrain, or vice versa

(This is an “answer my own question”-style entry, like on Stackoverflow. I recherched it.)

I was wondering whether we can sort by Difficulty and Terrain separately; some tables have (had?) a combined D/T field, and sometimes I wanted to sort by Terrain first, then Difficulty (e.g. to consider T4 first when filling up my 81 matrix, T4½ later, etc).

In a combined D/T field, this is obviously not possible. When D and T are separate table columns, this is possible with a stable sort.
