Why doesn't the virtual GPS button show up on the 360 tool map?

Sun, 12 Apr 2026 17:20:46 +0000

I am an active member and have used the 360 tool to identify sectors where I need to find caches. When I select a sector on the map, I can see the available caches within that sector, but I do not see the virtual GPS icon on the map to be able to select the lasso tool. I can add caches to my active virtual GPS one at a time by clicking on the cache icon and then selecting the add to GPS icon, though that is terribly inefficient.

ich kann keine Benachrichtigungen für neue Caches speichern. Woran kann es liegen?

Live-Karte und Virtuelles-GPS

Thu, 19 Feb 2026 08:41:24 +0000

Hallo zusammen,

ich habe nun die Live-karte für mich entdeckt und bin auch ein Fan vom virtuellen GPS.
Auf der Live-karte würde ich gerne die angezeigten Caches (entweder alle sichtbaren oder durch Auswahl eines Polygons) in mein virtuelles GPS übertragen.
Gibt es so eine Funktion und habe ich die übersehen?

Grüße Alex

When I click on the "New route" button on the Route Builder page nothing happens.

Wed, 21 Jan 2026 16:32:25 +0000

Over the last couple of days, when I click on the "New route" button, nothing happens. I can pull down the existing routes menu, but I can't create a new route.

Does the recent bug with the adventure labs include the main Profile Stats page for a given Profile?

Mon, 19 Jan 2026 02:31:28 +0000

For example, on the main page listing ones stats with the tabs Finds, Milestones, FTFs, etc,

it has the graph that shows the finds by year and cumulative. then below that it shows breakdown by year. 2026 only has finds for month of January. (148 caches and 11 labs, which it indicates under the months for the year)

my 2025 year section, says I have TOTAL FINDS of 930. but the spot under the months for the year 2025 says specifically, "Includes 1062 Adventure Labs"

This is the spot I'm asking about. I'm sure the lab count is accurate, because I know I did a good amount of hundreds for the month of July. but for the TOTAL FINDS says 930, and the note underneath says includes the labs. if that is the case, then the TOTAL FINDS should be close to 2000.

I know Geocaching treats them differently. And til recently here as well and i see that being a paid member adds functionality. I just think the Total Finds should be updated if the generated page puts a note that the labs are included or not regards of paid status

I am missing in TAB "Challenges" the line: Plus an additional xxx signed challenges, of which yyy is now fullfilled.

Sun, 18 Jan 2026 13:02:51 +0000

ON all PC an on PC of my friends i am missing the Line in TAB "Challenges" the line: Plus an additional xxx signed challenges, of which yyy is now fullfilled.

With the profilname of other owners i can see the missing line.

What is wrong on my profil ???

Custom Filter - Can I add more than one CO name?

I am targeting Charter Members on an upcoming road trip. Is there a way to put more than one CO name in a custom filter?

I would like to export my JASMER grid to excel.

Wed, 22 Oct 2025 02:21:33 +0000

I feel this must be possible and I am just missing out on the how. I could convert it by simply typing everything in excel, but then I would be required to keep up with it by hand versus a simple .csv or .xls export file.

¿Cómo puedo comprobar mis cinturones "BadgeGen Belts"?

Tue, 09 Sep 2025 09:49:05 +0000

Al escribir la primera pregunta, se me han actualizado los puntos. Ahora tengo 120. Pero sigo sin poder encontrar dónde me salen los Cinturones. No puedo buscarlos, no sé dónde están. ¿Cómo lo hago? ¿En qué apartado están? Gracias y feliz Geocaching!

¿Por qué tengo 0 puntos?

Tue, 09 Sep 2025 09:29:47 +0000

Acabamos de conocer a cerca de los Belts (cinturones). Hemos consultado el sistema de puntuación pero no entendemos por qué tenemos 0 puntos. ¿Cómo lo podemos actualizar?

Nos gustaría saber qué cinturón nos corresponde. Espero que podáis ayudarnos!

Muchas gracias por su tiempo, feliz Geocaching!

Tampermonkey Script: Add to VGPS from GC-Map

Tue, 12 Aug 2025 08:40:44 +0000

I am pretty sure that it once worked, so perhaps it's just an option to change.

It seems like adding a cache to the VGPS from the popup that appears when clicking on a cache, is no more possible. Am I the only one, or was this feature cancelled?

Why does a returned search list get out of synch if I click on any column heading

Thu, 07 Aug 2025 14:56:25 +0000

I do a search for let's say a nick e.g. and a country. The list I get contains x number of caches. If I then click on any column heading to resort the list the GC-number column gets out of synch with the rest. Very annoying. Same behaviour in the new version of the site.

custom filter to exclude specific owner

Mon, 19 May 2025 18:36:14 +0000

I'm using MapCompare to find caches for a nice and suitable tour together with a friend. I want to define a customer filter to exclude a specific owner, I'm not talking about myself or my friend here, but an arbitrary owner.

The custom filter dialog let's me specify to include a specific owner, but not to exclude ...
Or is there a specific characted (~ or ^) or keyword (NOT) I can specify to exclude such owner=

caches vinden op bepaalde breedte

Voor een challenge moet caches vinden op Noord 52, Oost 006 15* is er een manier om binnen een breedtegraad naar caches te zoeken. De enige andere manier lijkt me namelijk om systematich caches aan te klikken en te kijken welke cordinaten ze hebben maar dit is natuurlijk wel tijd rovend.

Is it possible to extract the number of found logs for a particular date range by County or State

Wed, 26 Feb 2025 02:51:14 +0000

I'm am trying to identify the number of found logs by year for a particular area.

This statistic provides the data in graph format - is it possible to extract these counts into a CSV? https://project-gc.com/Statistics/LogsPerDate?country=Australia&region=Tasmania&submit=Filter#

Alternatively this report provides the numbers also, however does not aggregate by region or State

Are there any other ways of obtaining this information?

Challenge Checker Map - Fulfilled ?

Sun, 26 Jan 2025 14:37:00 +0000

I noticed that the challenge checker map is not determining fulfilled or unfulfilled challenges for me. The icon displayed for all the caches is a blue ?. The only caches showing with a green check are ones that I have previously added a personal cache note.

My map challenge cache options are US / Florida with all D/T and no name filter entered. The Exclude has Disabled, Archived & Not Fulfilled checked. Show option is set to Show All.

This has worked in the past, though I'm not sure the last time I ran it. I have been premium for many years and looking in a US state (FL) that I am very active in.

Is there an issue? User error?

create pocket queries directly from the pq-splitter

You used to be able to create pocket queries directly from the pq-splitter on geocaching.com. This no longer works for me. Does anyone know why?

Since I set up Project-GC for notifications, I'm getting notifications for Finds in my watchlist.

Thu, 26 Dec 2024 18:05:41 +0000

I only want notifications for new caches. I set up GPSLogger so that my location for notifiers would change while travelling. Now I'm getting notifications when someone finds a cache in my favorites list. That's not what is set up in Geocaching.com notifiers. So, Project-GC is overriding my GC.com preferences I guess.

Web Browser Extension Will Not Authenticate

Sat, 15 Jun 2024 12:25:23 +0000

I am running the latest version of Safari. I use Tampermonkey to run the web browser extension. It wasn't until recently that Tampermonkey would load the Project GC script. It was fixed.

Now, I cannot get the web extension to authenticate. It reads, "Not Logged In" at the top of the Geocaching page. If I click the link, I go to a page that tells me to authenticate. I click the Authenticate button and am taken to another page on Geocaching with a button to Agree to the authorization. Then the page goes to Project GC. But I am never logged in to the web extension. It continues to read, "Not Logged In". And I am not logged in.

I did try removing authorization for Project GC on the Geocaching web site. I have run the script on other devices.

Is this a Geocaching issue? Project GC issue? Tampermonkey issue? Any help would be appreciated.

New messages every time shared coordinates in VGPS

Since 2024.04.07 I keep getting messages every time someone shares coordinates in a VGPS. This is very annoying. Is it possible to remove these messages? If so then how?

aus Logeinträge Vergleichen -> Field Note oder GPX erstellen

Wed, 28 Dec 2022 23:17:50 +0000

Gibt es eine Möglichkeit wie man aus dem Punkt "Logeinträge Vergleichen" eine GPX oder gar eine Fild Note Datei erstellen kann?

Ich war mit mehreren Cachern unterwegs und habe mir selber keine Caches für die Tour gespeichert die wir gemacht haben, will aber nun die Caches nachloggen.

Man kann natürlich alles seperat manuell per Hand raussuchen (was ich jetzt auch schon mache), vieleicht geht es aber auch irgendwie einfacher bzw. leichter.

custom filter for finding cachers found specific list of counties

Wed, 19 Oct 2022 07:48:37 +0000

I'm looking for a way to find cachers who meet criteria for certain to-be challenge where the criteria is having found specific set of counties (across few countries).

For this I was first planning to use existing statistics tools (top county finders) and custom filters (custom filter with those counties only) as a help, but stumbled upon the following issues:

Top county finders stat does not allow adding a custom filter at all. I guess this is as it is and there are no ways around it?

The custom filter itself seem very limited - ie. I don't seem to find a way to create a single custom filter that would accept a predefined list of (16) counties from few (6) different countries. I guess there is no way to create a custom filter like that which would accept 16 counties from few different countries as criteria for finds?

Also, I've created a challenge checker for the particular challenge, and run it against few nicks individually but that seems like very slow approach on trying to identify the minimum 10 cachers meeting the criteria.

Is it possible to edit an existing route
