Have I done something wrong for this cache
geocaching.com.au/cache/ga27108
to read as being Om elevation?
Maybe because I saved a draft before adding the coordinates due to an add link glitch giving me a fright?

There's an 'Update Elevation' button in the Actions menu on the cache page. I pressed that and the cache was instantly elevated 443 meters. :D

I'm guessing this is not so much a site issue but a geocaching name issue, but just thought I'd ask anyway...

Tonight I noticed since changing my GCA cacher name to C○3 ♀ Ɛ○<<○3 (which is Now To Morrow written sideways) my GC logs haven't synced on my profile deets. So I'm guessing it's got something to do with the name being different between the 2 sites. Is this correct? And is there a solution?

On my profile it says my GC profile name is C○3 ♀ Ɛ○<<○3 (sideways), but it is still Now_To_Morrow there.

You changed your cacher name. Cacher names always assume that's your name at the secondary site. You can't have 3 names (forum, cacher and "other site"), as it's not something we have.

Fair enough. GC won't let me change to Co3_♀_Ɛo<<o3 so I guess computer programing wins ...for now.

The Cache type page could be updated to cover some cache options in the query,

Thanks for the suggestion.

We have open access to update the Wiki if you ask. Other than that we rely a very few contributors and we don't always remember to update. This page now has the correct Map markers and Cache icons displayed.

Would you be happy if I made a new topic that said which wiki pages needed updating/making so editors are aware, and when they feel they have the time it can be done (I would do it but I am a terrible at grammar and spelling and would stuff it up)

Ha! Welcome to my world of spelling and grammar.

By all means, start a new topic for the most important pages to update and we can ask anyone who has access (or would like access) to come in an collaborate.

That would be most welcomed.
