I'm nit sure the problem was on Groundspeak's side.
When it happened the only way to fix the problem was to force close/stop the app and start again

Apparently, Groundspeak has a problem at times. I'll add some error messages when it does. Thanks for letting me know.

Support / New Note field
Last post by picht -
Hi

The new Note field looks cool.
But unfortunately there is no indication if the data has actually been saved to geocachin.com

I have now multiple times lost all information that I have typed in because it wasn't saved and I had no indication of the problem.

This happens quite randomly but probably more often in places with bad data reception/coverage.

Is there a way to add a notification or something so the data I have entered isn't deleted?

Well, it happened again yesterday. I was uploading small batches at a time (under 10 for sure). It was going well so I thought I'd try a bigger batch and when I tried 15, they disappeared. No sign up them under profile, save for later or drafts.

For now, I'll just keep uploading smaller numbers.

Thanks, I usually log a cache with the draft setting on and I select Save for Later in the lower left so I can bulk upload them to gc.com's Drafts page when I'm back home on wi-fi. (Once they're there, I write a longer log, fixing or expanding on the draft)

I did look at logging the caches again, hoping it would retain the previous log. But I checked many of them and nothing was retained, it was as if I was logging for the first time. I have started the process of logging again, it's just frustrating that they went into the ether when I used the familiar process to upload them to Drafts.

I get the difference between Save for Later logs with the Draft toggle on and groundspeak Drafts. Under Profile, I have Drafts from the day before and the Logs list has those that I chose from the previous day's drafts and did final edits/photos/trackable visits.

Essentially, I just have to start over based on what you've said because the logging tasks didn't keep the text when I go to log again.

I am not sure what the issue was. You could always try to log again for a cache since it internally should keep the log text for the logging task and reshow it populated in the log. If not, there is no way to recover them.

Just to be clear Geooh's Save for Later is NOT the same as a Groundspeak draft. I am not sure if that is what is confusing things. Geooh can save different tasks (not just logging) for processing later. Try going into your Profile via Geooh and see what the Drafts list and the Logs list to see if you see the ones missing.

I am on the latest version too.

Also, I'll add that I successfully uploaded 91+ just 24 hours before (I did switch to another app while they were uploading). Switching to the other app did seem to cause a few to stay in my pending queue but they did upload to the site.

Background: We're having a Block Party on Saturday and I have the whole week off to get the 400 caches I need to make the milestone I want.

Caching partly out of cell range today, I came ready with an offline list. I found 31 caches and created draft notes for all of them. When I went to upload, they disappeared from the Pending Queue as usual but they never showed up in my drafts page on geocaching.com. When I look at my offline list, I can see 7 of them in the Found (saved for later) section. I just testing drafts from the official app and from Geooh Go again, one of each, and they uploaded successfully.

Is there any way to recover those logs that I sent for upload but never made it? I did check a couple that I know I found and there is no indication I ever created a note for them.

Any assistance or comments would be appreciated. I've uploaded two screen shots, the saved for later and a section of the Unfound that contains a couple of letterboxes I did find.

It depends on where and how you are downloading. If the Live map or Quick List, uncheck "Lite" in Settings for the appropriate section. If Search or Download, then select the "Full" option.
