Display GPX Points on Cachly?

Question

So I am sitting in my hotel room getting ready to head to the APE Mega and I am thinking it sure would be nice to be able to upload that .gpx to either a map or even add them as waypoints inside the APE event on Cachly. This would be a great feature to add in the future.

I still have this offline list saved from when I tested the import. I just tried to refresh it and Cachly crashes. This is repeatable. I realize these caches may not exist anymore, but it would be more useful to get an error message than a crash. 

Are you able to provide the crash logs for this?

Rather than make a new topic, I have created a list of points in Google Earth for an upcoming series of caches I am planting. I saved them as a KML from Google Earth then I used an online KML to GPX converter to get them into GPX. I put the GPX in Dropbox and tried to upload it to Cachly. I get the same problem I was getting here back in September. Nothing loads into my Offline List, but it doesn't say an error or anything. 

Here is my GPX.

What am I doing wrong?

Cachly needs the "sym" field because it uses that to know if it is a Waypoint or a Geocache.

<sym>Geocache</sym>

Cachly also uses the description field for the cache name.
