Edit Logs

[diorex]

From the logs screen I can see the logs I have entered, would like to be able to change log type or edit contents of a log.

 

Most common use case is entering a DNF then forgetting to change log to DNF so it gets logged as a found. As it stands now, we need to remember and change log once we get home, would like to be able to edit log type as soon as the error is realized.

Currently this isn't part of the geocaching.com API that we use. Hoping it can be in the future!

From a practical point if view it might be better to save you logs while out caching and when you get home go to the list in Pending Logs and look at each log again before submitting. 

I find that useful as I find I want to edit the message on a few caches, add some pictures and let my TBS visit a cache or two once I get home and have more time to consider the logs

That's the approach I used on Saturday for a 30 cache day.

Does anyone use the newish drafts feature for this?  Maybe it’s a topic for the wiki 

Seems like I could use drafts instead of pending logs, then be able to edit & submit from any device/browser?

But knowing GS there’s probably caveats!

My suggestion above will achieve the same result as a draft. All that is different is that you will have to go to geocaching.com to do your final edits and submission.

I never use the drafts facility so I do not know how it handles trackables logs and images that will go with your draft cache log to geocahing.com

My preference is to do as much as I can in Cachly
