+Runnystrong Posted October 25, 2011 Share Posted October 25, 2011 I submitted a Traditional cache on the 20th and here it is the 25th and it still has not been reviewed. There have been several caches published that were submitted after mine and they were published? In my area what is the deal I thought that it was a 3 day review process at most.

Pup Patrol Posted October 25, 2011 Share Posted October 25, 2011 Hard to believe someone with 43 hides doesn't understand the review process or how to contact a reviewer. I think you could pick one reviewer to contact, and if it isn't in that person's queue, they could probably check things out any way. Quote Link to comment

I think you could pick one reviewer to contact, and if it isn't in that person's queue, they could probably check things out any way. I would look harder on how long a cacher has been a memeber than how many hides they have... To the OP: I would write to either Rock Rabbit, Cascade Reviewer, Ice and Wind (who is a man BTW) or Wizard of Ooze. Probably the one you want to choose is the reviewer that has published most of your other cachers. Personally I hae found Wizard of Ooze to be the mosty responsive to e-mails through their profile page. If it got missed then it should not be a problem. If there is some other issue then I would expect tht you might have to wait a while longer... Quote Link to comment

How long someone has used an account name doesn't tell us much. Hard to believe that a user could go through the review process 43 times already and not hit even one tiny glitch.

+Lil Devil Posted October 25, 2011 Share Posted October 25, 2011 It should also be noted that the submission process has changed. In the past, when you submitted a new cache, there was a checkbox at the top of the form to enable the submission. By default it was checked. Currently, the same checkbox is farther down on the page, below the coordinate entry box, and it is NOT checked by default. I stand by my prediction that the OP's cache is not enabled.

+palmetto Posted October 25, 2011 Share Posted October 25, 2011 To the OP, the cache that you wrote up on 10/20 is disabled. As is the cache you wrote up yesterday. They need to be enabled to be seen in the review queue. They both have this warning at the top: The reviewers will not see this listing until you enable it. This cache is temporarily unavailable. Read the logs below to read the status for this cache. The cache report form was subtly changed in the recent site update. Caches are disabled by default. You must enable them. Quote Link to comment

I, for one, did not know this. I don't recall it being listed in the release notes, either, although I could be wrong. I think changing the default is a great idea, but moving its location and changing the default at the same time is bound to cause a lot of confusion. Quote Link to comment
+GeoBain Posted October 25, 2011 Share Posted October 25, 2011 I think changing the default is a great idea, but moving its location and changing the default at the same time is bound to cause a lot of confusion. I agree. But this part should still be clear as a bell. Especially if you have been asked repeatedly to check if it is enabled. The reviewers will not see this listing until you enable it. This cache is temporarily unavailable. Read the logs below to read the status for this cache. Quote Link to comment

+hzoi Posted October 25, 2011 Share Posted October 25, 2011 I have to say, after filling out 26 submittal forms the other day, the new check box does tend to blend in with the rest of the form. Putting it in bold text might help a bit. Just adding those seven extra characters to the HTML would save some time and angst. Quote Link to comment
+dphickey Posted October 25, 2011 Share Posted October 25, 2011 Another thing that I found was if you create the cache, and then go back into the cache to edit it, things like the attributes disappear if you don't re-select them all again. That may be the same with the enable check box. Quote Link to comment

So many times I have suggested this and so many times I heard. No we like it this way and most said they can have the cache page put together without ever having to uncheck the box. Well hats off to you guys. Some of us take longer and I am glad they finally changed it. It is tough to find though when you do want to check it but less likely to hit it by accident.

+LightHouseSeekers Posted October 26, 2011 Share Posted October 26, 2011 Yes, I see that is unchecked by default (listing enabled), though the note still says otherwise that you must uncheck it yourself. Overall that sounds like a good thing so one doesn't submit a cache that isn't really ready to be found. Problem I see is that part of the submission page is easy to overlook. Side note: I still have real film cans laying around. Quote Link to comment
