Hello menion,

this morning (20.5.2016) i logged a few caches offline in field.

Back home i´ve completed text with Fieldnotes and upload them to geocaching.com

For my surprise i noticed that logs with logtime before 9:00 CEST are logged on geocaching.com on 19.5.2016

Hello balloni,


please download a GPX file directly on geocaching.com page and check times of logs in this file. Are they correct?

Well and this is what I wanted to show you. Issue is not on Locus side. Groundspeak happily ignore timezones and use only their zome ... Pacific time - UTC-8 . Unfortunately there is not much I may do. How currently Locus logs caches is correct. I may do it incorrect, so manually move times by this 8 hours. Then it will look correctly on a web, but all details, stats etc. generated from these times will be wrong.


We had a quite long discussion on this topic in Czech part of forum, but we were not able to find and general solution. Complicated task ...
