Not sure if it is something I am doing or not.
The member list allows you to search by location (like the old version), but when the list is displayed below it, there is no column for location.
http://forum.geocaching.com.au/memberli ... searchuser
I can't see any locations (other than if someone puts one in their phone number), though the order of the list does change when you adjust the filter from joined date, name etc.

I notice that there was a couple of test caches that were published on the Beta site that are still there will these be deleted or should the owners archive them.

I wasn't real good at English at school but I would have thought it should have been "there", I think you can be forgiven for this one after all the work you have done.

^^This one works but does not redirect to a log in screen if the user is not already loged in.

I seem to remember i! saying something about one of these features being one of their mods to the out of the box software.

My Cacher page shows the below instead of my Avatar, I have reloaded my Avatar onto the forum but that still has not fixed it.

As part of beta testing I added an image to all my recent logs. The image link and "There are gallery items for this cache" has persisted but the images are not available. eg http://geocaching.com.au/gallery/cache/gc1ha4d

Some caches and logs are missing in the migrated data, however are in our backup database.
We will get this sorted ASAP.

My cache ratings for the last few weeks have disappeared, as have my find and move logs for the cache GA0492 Geo-Gnome.

Other than that - absolutely bloody marvellous!

EDIT:
Oops, my question/query was answered while I was still posting - the new Server is so fast it is ahead of me. Look out the Tomorrow People, the server is already there! :P

It was on garmin.geocaching.com.au before the testing request was opened to everyone. The images would have been deleted at some stage but the links have remained. Not a big deal but I just thought I would mention it.

You don't need to try recover the images as it was just a test. Just the image gallery links probably shouldn't have come over?
