Release Notes 7/28/10
Trackables Dipping!
You can now "Visit" a trackable in a cache. This allows you to drop and retrieve a trackable in a single step. To dip a trackable it must be in your inventory. The cache logging page has also been redesigned slightly to make it easier to select the trackables you are dropping/visiting.
WYSIWYG text editor for Trackables
Wysi-what? WYSIWYG stands for "What You See Is What You Get", and describes a text editor that let's you add HTML to your descriptions in a more friendly manner. In this first implementation we have added the text editor to the Trackables creation/edit page, but the plan is to add it to Geocaches in a future release.
Alternate email addresses
This new feature allows you to add and validate alternate email addresses for use when creating Pocket Queries and Instant Notifications. When validated, these secondary email addresses will appear in a dropdown menu for selection on the creation page for Instant Notifications and Pocket Queries.
You logged this as Found on...
Check caches you have logged in the past for this notice in the right column under the cache options.
Language Settings
When you select a new language from the site footer it automatically updates your preferred language setting in your profile.
