cache stats

cache stats

Postby cache_me_in » Sat Sep 22, 2007 12:08 am

I also want to know how to get the cache stats that I see on a lot of cachers pages. I know I saw somewhere how to do it but (duh) I forgot.
If you're not living on the edge you're just taking up space.

Put the following in your signature within your Profile, where guid is your id from GC site:

Code: Select all
<a href="http://www.geocaching.com/profile/?guid=YOURGUIDHERE" target="_blank"><img src="http://img.geocaching.com/stats/img.aspx?txt=Let's+Go+Hunt!&uid=YOURGUIDHERE&amp;bg=1" border="0"></a>

Gruizzer's method will work, but another way is to go to your "My Account Details" page on GC.com. From there, click on "View my Stats Bar" under account options. That will take you to a page where you can copy the HTML that Gruizzer gives above, but with your unique GUID. Then just paste it into the signature section of your profile here in the forums.

Using this method you don't have to worry about getting extra characters, or missing some when you splice the code above.

But beware. That is what I did, but I got a signature is too long error message and had to chop it down. Thats probably when I introduced the extra characters.

The above copied straight from my forum profile after TNT fixed me. :oops:

Gruizzer is exactly right. The method I mentioned is too long for this forum

All right. I've fixed the problem that Gruizzer mentions above by increasing the max allowable signature size. The copy and paste method I mentioned above will now work.

At one time I set my stats and had it working. I have tried to reset it so will see if it works the next time I log on.
