I entered mine onto the WGA site (only 14!?! 😡 ). Is the only way to get them to show up here to use the premium account feature?

Send me a file with your caches (such as an EasyGPS LOC file) and I’ll see what I can do.

Thanks for the offer to help, but this stuff is completely foreign to me. I’ll try to play around with it, but it may take a while. 😆

Sweet! Thanks!

Now we just need to take care of Page 104…

[Coastiegirl04]

sorry can’t help you there… that’s to far away from me! 😀

A DeLorme Challenge Calculator Update:

There is now an form on the page where you can take a GPX file derived from a Pocket Query or from clicking the “download GPX file” link at the top of any cache page, upload that, and get a table showing each cache and on what DeLorme atlas page it falls.

This is useful if you’re planning a cache trip and want to see if any of the caches will fall on any pages you might need.

A second, good news/bad news update:

My old hosting provider was having some serious quality of service issues and I decided to move my site over to a new provider. I’m slowly getting everything up and running on the new server, but I’ve encountered an unfortunate limitation: The maximum size of a file upload can only be 15 MB. For most people, that shouldn’t be a problem, but for those whose finds are in the high 1000s, your My Finds PQ might end up being too large to upload. If you’re having troubles with your uploads, please let me know and I’ll work out a way to deal with it.

Edit: I talked them into raising the limit to 15MB!

[Cathunter]

I’ve been unable to upload a .GPX of my finds. Error message=1

Dave?

Thanks to zuma for replacing the sole cache on page 104… all the DeLorme pages for Wisconsin are now covered! Happy hunting!

Ditto Cathunter’s comments. Mon 09/25 and so far today – no go?!? I thought yesterdaythat it may be my work pc, but it did not work at home either.

PS – I love the work Dave has done on this!

[Cheesehead Dave]

My hosting provider updated the PHP scripting engine and reset the maximum file upload size to only 2MB. They have since bumped it back up to where it was before, so if you’ve had problems the past couple of days, go ahead and give it another go.

[Piwko Kurczak]

Thanks again, Dave. Great work!

[Cathunter]

Got it to work this evening. Thanks for all your hard work on this Dave!

I have 50 pages complete…. hmmm..

I’m thinking a roadtrip is in order. 😆

[Vegas Gamblers]

Finally got mine to enter. Only 12 areas? Grrrr. 😡 Well just more of a reason to seek out wonderful gems of our state.

[CinemaBoxers]

We dont travel much with our 2 year old… but Im practically sure we could finish the “Yellow Pages Kenosha Map Challenge!” LOL

Oh well.. us homebodies can live vicariously through y’all….
