I’ll check the error logs, but it looks like it’s working to me…
Adding to the wish list of nonessentials but I would use:
emoticon library
a “jump to page” drop down menu or type in number, especially for the threads with many pages
Another not too important one, but the links for the cache files are bad.
The best sig is no sig.

Ok, I totally missed that one. Fixed. Thanks for finding that one and pointing it out!

Will see what I can do. Thanks!
Another not important, but thought I would mention…..
In the State Park leaderboard, is the idea that one can click on someone’s name on that list to see which parks they’ve found? Cause if it is, I’m getting taken to the “users online” information instead when I do that.
If the user doesn’t have a valid profile on the website, it tries to find something close… I am trying to figure out how to make sure everyone on the list has a valid profile so that doesn’t happen.
If the list is generated by cache finds, which it seems to be doing, then there will be many cachers without valid profiles. Finders come from all states, and many find just one or two without knowing that there is more to this project than just another smiley. The only names I can click on and see what they have are the ones who are specifically registered on the new web site.
Perhaps the list of registered WGA users can be generated first, and then have the program gather the WGA SP statistics from that. An explanatory note can be put at the top of the the leaders page (which really needs a different title than “leaderboard”, since this is not a competition, and no one is looking to see who has what numbers… right?), saying something like if you want to see where you stand on WGA SP cache finds, register to be a WGA member/friend… It’s simple and free! And so on.
Maybe when all the cache pages get updated, a note can be added to each to the effect that you can follow your own progress on WGA SP finds and badges earned by registering to be a WGA member/friend… It’s simple and free! And so on.
BTW, Birdin’… You now show up as having no WGA SP finds or badges when I click on your name for your profile. 🙄
Guess we’ll have to go find ’em all again! Wouldn’t be a bad thing…..those are our kind of caches and places, anyway. 🙄
Damn apostrophes. 🙂
T&B’s profile looks right now. I also figured out what I need to do to get ALL member’s (that have their geocaching names set) profiles to link correctly. Now I just need to figure out how to do it.I think that all WGA members on the leaderboard are now linked to their profile pages.
…(which really needs a different title than “leaderboard”, since this is not a competition, and no one is looking to see who has what numbers… right…
Suggestions? If no one cares about the numbers, then should the list be sorted alphabetically?
I was using the sarcastic font when I was talking about the numbers… Of course, people are checking everyone’s stats! But we don’t have to call it a leaderboard. That implies that someone is winning, or ahead in a contest. Maybe someone is just aiming for the biome that is closest to them. Who cares if others get to 47? Set your own challenge level.
How about Progress Chart? Boring, I know.
Changed the name of the page and sorted by name. I think I like it better this way.
