Markdown-incompatible logs is a tool that searches for BBCode and HTML in the authenticated user's logs.

In early 2016, Geocaching HQ changed their log formatting from a mix of BBCode[1] and HTML[2] to Markdown[3]. Since then, logs using BBCode and/or HTML will not render correctly.

This tool identifies logs that should be edited using Geocaching HQ's native tool, if the user want their logs to look like they intended. Since deleting or editing logs is not possible with the Geocaching LIVE api Project-GC cannot provide a tool that automatically converts logs.

Notes
