Title: Creating a new cache
Post by: L8HNB on November 24, 2013, 08:12:53 pm
I guess some of you may know about this...

I've just been trying to create a new cache on groundspeaks wonderful software and couldn't because it wouldn't let me select a container type!

After posting on the GS UK forum I greatfully received a pm from Delta68 suggesting I use the old cache page, which worked a treat!  I have to ask, but not on the GS forum  :D, why do a fancy set of pages that don't work?

Anyway, if anyone else needs it this is where you need to go: www.geocaching.com/hide/report.aspx

Cheers, H.

I've not heard of that one and didn't have a problem with the new forms using Firefox on a PC platform.

Funny how other old hands did though David!  I'm using W7 on a laptop so pretty standard stuff, not old or brand new technology.

It's much easier on the old form, imho, all on one page and you can save/register at any time without having to get to the end.  I always (well the last and only three!) create the page and then like to develop it and re-read it a few times.

I too prefer the old form - there was nothing wrong with it, so why create a new one? Plus GS haven't rolled the new system out for when you edit a listing, so it's just a gimmick at the moment  :o :D

I do like how you can edit the cache descriptions richly though  :)
