What's new on Geocaching Australia

[mtrax]

I think a paragraph explaining what the new cache types is perhaps is missing?

The wiki knows all.
http://wiki.geocaching.com.au/wiki/Geocache
Specifically:
http://wiki.geocaching.com.au/wiki/Beacon_Cache

They are fully supported as of yesterdays announcement as a new cache type on the website, assuming you can get your hands on one down in Australia.

As per the request in this thread, Geocaching Australia now supports fieldnotes.
http://forum.geocaching.com.au/viewtopi ... =1&t=15052

You can upload your fieldnotes via your My > Import function.
Select the format applicable to your device, find the file on your machine, hit the Import button and magic will happen.
http://wiki.geocaching.com.au/wiki/Imports#Fieldnotes

When you have loaded your fieldnotes, you can continue to review and edit your field notes before logging them in as proper logs.
You can also review your field notes via your My > Field Notes function.
http://wiki.geocaching.com.au/wiki/Fieldnotes

Note that if you load a Field Note that you have previously loaded, it will be duplicated, so ensure that your file only contains the Field Notes you wish to load up to Geocaching Australia.

Did my first upload of field notes this morning - really cool, and useful as no more revisits to the same GCA cache because you forgot to log.

Now just gotta remember to rename the original fieldnotes txt on the Oregon so I don't have to tick the delete box on tens of logs.

Top effort again c@w.

Happy (relieved) to hear it's working.

Also tested this out this morning--found my way and it worked well. Thanks to who ever organised it, sure beats manual recording.

In response to this discussions http://forum.geocaching.com.au/viewtopi ... 50#p163050 a like function has been added for liking logs.

Well, so is this new one too

Cached is looking into a plan to reorganise the menu structure (thank you).

To help her see what submenus might look like, under your MY tab, your Hotlists are now on a submenu.
There should be a white right arrow head indicating a new submenu on that item.
If you hover over Hotlists you should get a new submenu.
If that's not working for you, you may need a fresh css file, so hit the F5 key while holding down the CTRL key.

It probably doesn't work in IE6, but does in IE7, IE8 and FF3.

Now a ROTFL smiley, and my world is complete!

In FF3.6.6 I can get the sub menu, but do not see the arrow head, so have no indication there is a submenu.

CTRL and F5 to get the latest css file.
