Jeremy added the ability to edit cache logs late last night! Now you can make any changes you want to any of your log entries on any caches! Fix those typos, correct the icon, add or remove text, encrypt or unencrypt sections, remember to dropp off a TB etc.
No more having to delete and then re-enter logs to make corrections. And unlike the old way, editing a log does not generate bunches of e-Mails everytime to those watching a cache!
One other change made at the same time. Ever notice how some folks just can’t seem to get logging a cache right? They want to make a note, but log it as a find? Or say they didn’t find it, yet the icon shows a find?
Well, most of these errors were from the log type being a drop down box that defaulted to ‘Found It’, and folks not knowing what a drop down box was or how to operate it.
Well, the drop down box is gone now, replaced with three radio buttons. The default is still ‘Found It!’, but this should help reduce the errors.
I’ve also asked Jeremy to add an additional log feature. If a cache is tagged as containing at least one Travel Bug (TB), then when a cacher logs that cache, they will be prompted for if they retrieved that TB or not, and if they did, it will direct them to log the retrieval. This should help reduce the mis-understandings on how TBs work. The process is less than intuitive (you log the retreival on the TB’s page, but log the dropp off on the cache page, and if you dropped off the TB before logging it, your up the creek unless you wrote down its ID number).
