Re: *** New Site Testing - We need your help ***
I tried clicking on the coords listed on my movable cache (GA0925) page to bring up a google map of the area the cache was in, and I received This:
Unknown/unlisted cache
Sorry, this cache is unknown or unlisted. To search for a cache, use the search box in the top right hand corner.
Seems like the link now point internally to GCA...?

Re: *** New Site Testing - We need your help ***
A suggestion for cachers trying to be well-rounded.
Could we have a D/T table of the caches in each state please?
One that shows us the number of each difficulty/terrain variations of caches, sorta like the D/T tables you can find in peoples profiles.
As this would be a fairly static table, it could be generated once per day and then stored on the server disc to decrease the amount of CPU time required to process the info.
I would love to see what is available in various states.

Never fear asking questions. There is so much on the site that is not out in the open that it's always better to ask if you can't find it. If it's there we'll point youto it, if it's not there, we'll try and create it.
Re: *** New Site Testing - We need your help ***
There's so much good stuff on the site but it seems I only discover it slowly as various questions arise. I had thought just recently that the site maybe needed some easier to use navigation menus. And maybe some "how to find this" and "how to look at that" guidelines. But since I didn't have a good suggestion on how to do it, I didn't think I ought to comment. After all, the site is great and I didn't want to be negative.
But still, have you thought about how to improve the ease of looking at things and finding things? Especially for newcommers who aren't always sure what they're looking for! They need to be told what to look for I reckon

Re: *** New Site Testing - We need your help ***
The developers had a conference on site navigation a while ago in terms of our future roadmap. That sounds grand doesn't it. I mean I spoke to CraigRat and we agreed that the navigation was less than optimal, but neither of us could work out a better way to do it.
If you have suggestions, let us know. No guarantees, but as we're very familiar with the site navigation we can't see the caches for the rocks.
