Geocaching Australia

You can post this anywhere you like. I have posted it to the Geocaching Australia Facebook page, but any likes or shares would be appreciated.

I appreciate your very thought provoking question and thank you for putting the item up for some discussion. We have looked at first nations recognition in the past. Most recently we looked at whether we could create a map showing the first nations boundaries until we realised that boundaries does n...

Thanks.

A quick question. When generating the files, there are a few types you seem to be able to create. A few for specific Garmin's devices and one for a mobile phone device. Does the one for the phone work on both iOS and Android? Or is there only one file nowadays that is payable on all devices? Does th...

Thanks. I've added this to the wiki and updated the iOS link on the home page.

On the right hand side of every external log that you own there should be a small rubbish bin. Hover over that and it should say "Delete". The same should apply if you own a geocache and you want to crypt the log. On the right hand side there should be a shield which when you hover should say "Crypt...

Three new things at Geocaching Australia this morning. 1. The ability to filter on caches that Needs Maintenance and Should be Archived have been added to the My Query tool. You can now exclude geocaches that have either or both actions set so you can avoid geocaches that may be under the weather. 2...

Cool. I have seen mention on that, so I'll try it. Thanks for helping someone who knows very little about this stuff.

Thanks again. The program as it's provided crashes. A know problem.

Two new flags have been set at Geocaching Australia. Needs Archiving A Needs Archiving flag will be set with the log date when a "Needs Archiving" log is created. This will be used by the administration team to review geocaches that "Need Archiving" 30 days or more after the flag is set. If the admi...

Thanks.

Do y'all create WheIGo's and if so what app do you to create them? It all looks a little daunting to the uninitiated nd I'm struggling to find an app or site that I can use to create them "simply"

We have paid for one more year of hosting. We are lucky enough this year to not have to rely on any benefactors for any top up our finances. Thanks to everyone who has supported the site over the last year, those who contributed donations, those who made purchases through the shop and those who hide...

Hey all. Does anyone do (create or find) WherIGo geocaches at the secondary site? I'm kind of interested in knowing whether these are popular enough to allow as an Augmented Reality cache. i.e. be able to upload a WherIGo cartridge to the GCA listing page and ... you have an AR cache which uses a Wh...
