    Is there a way to transfer all of the finds (42) that I have listed on gc.com to here or do I have to do them on this site manually? Further I just wanted to say hello to everyone. My wife and I just started Geo-caching in late June and have definitely caught the bug.

    Welcome to the obsession.

    What do you mean logging your finds on this page?

    Milestones, Counties, States and Countries are logged on this site but the official stats are still on GC.com.

    I don’t show any finds on the WGA site just the GC site. Is there a way to transfer the logs from GC site to the WGA or do I have to go through and log all of my finds one by one on the WGA?

    If you want your “Recent Logs” to show in your user profile on the WGA site, you need to provide us with a link to your geocaching.com profile. You can do this by clicking on “Your Account” in the Main Menu block, clicking on the Member Info tab, and then entering the right link/URL in the box next to Geocaching.com Profile Link… then press Update. (To find out what the link is, go to geocaching.com, click on My Account, click on the stat bar image on the left hand side that says View my profile… then cut and paste the link/URL of the profile page that appears.)

    While it is optional, I recommend that everyone provide their gc.com profile link as it also enables some other mildly cool stuff (like an icon linking to your gc.com profile, ability to pick up your out of state logs, etc.)… most members have done this, but some seem to be resisting. 😉

    Also note that we only keep and show the logs you have made on geocaching.com for two weeks. This is really just a convienence feature on the WGA site… geocaching.com is the official keeper of the logs and where all logs need to be entered.

    If you are talking about logging your milestones or the states or counties in which you have cached, then yes, entering this information is currently a manual process on the WGA site. There is a multiple entry form to allow you to enter many states or counties in one shot though.

    Send me a private message or email if you are still having trouble.

    Jeremy, thank you very much for helping me out with this, it did work. I was also able to add to the states cached in (2 out of 50 so far) LOL. My wife and I will be at the WGA picnic and look forward to meeting you and all the other cachers. Thanks again

    Hey Jeremy, thanks for posting this. I didn’t have the link handy when filling in my profile, and never went back to complete it. NOW, it is done.
