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

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

This tool identifies what logs should be edited with Geocaching HQs 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 can not provide a tool for automatically converting the logs.
