It\u2019s now easier to create cache pages with fewer issues so that caches are published more smoothly. For cache owners who have used the page for a long time, the changes might take some getting used to. But we\u2019re confident that once you\u2019re familiarized with the new page, you\u2019ll find it much easier to get your cache pages ready for the community.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><!--more--><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">It\u2019s not just cache owners who benefit from the improvements, but also the geocaching community\u2019s amazing volunteer reviewers. Many of them review hundreds or thousands of caches each year. These changes will reduce the issues that come up during the review process, allowing the reviewers more time to&#8230;well&#8230;go out geocaching!<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">So, if you\u2019ve ever considered hiding a geocache, we encourage you to join the 360,000 plus cache owners who\u2019s creativity and inspiration give us over 3 million reasons to keep exploring.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Among the updates to the Edit Cache Listing page:<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Waypoints and attributes are integrated into the page. That means there\u2019s no need to visit a separate page to add\/edit waypoints or attributes!<\/span><\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The page\u2019s map is much more useful. You can now see posted coordinates and waypoints on the map. Also, we\u2019ve switched the page\u2019s map to OpenStreetMap, which allows cache owners to zoom in and out, as well as double-check that the coordinates are at the correct location.<\/span><\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The Submit for Review process is simplified.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">You can read tons more about the improvements in the official <a href=\"https:\/\/forums.geocaching.com\/GC\/index.php?\/topic\/346756-release-notes-website-edit-cache-listing-page-december-5-2017\/\">Release Notes in the Geocaching Forums<\/a>, where you can also share feedback about the release.<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Today, we\u2019re excited to announce big improvements to the Edit Cache Listing page!
