Log Template Auto-Count skips numbers

Recommended Posts

In my log template, it show how many finds I have. Even if the first number match what's in geocaching.com, it does not count correctly after, It lost count. My suggestion would be that each time you enter a new log, it goes get the latest data (Nb of Finds + Found Drafts).

Please see image and see the count. I have only used Cachly while geocaching.

Yes, this is how it currently works. Do you have any geocaching.com Drafts or pending logs in Cachly that would be changing the count?

Well, each logs I send from Cashly are drafts. So I add one new draft for each above. Before the trip, my drafts were empty (no pending logs). The screenshot above are the drafts created in one geocaching evening. I did not use any other website or apps to add logs. (I only have Cachly opened during the trip). However, between each caches, I sometimes use other apps (like Apple Maps or Waze to find the next cache), or just turn off my phone, or check my emails. And then I go back in Cachly to get the cache data and make a new draft log. I feel that the issue is caused by the fact that I got out of Cachly and then back in for a new log...

I experienced similar behavior. Yesterday I felt it could be caused by an Adventure Lab Cache we did in between as these automatically added to the number of founds, but today I again experience the number jump quickly, as if there is a loop in the count.

I do not save drafts in the Cachly app, but send direct to GC.com where they are saved as draft at GC.com.
The first find is counted properly (# of finds on GC + 1), but the second and further ones add “ghost” finds?
