The need for a Cacher Name

Geocaching Australia uses two usernames:

For most people, these will be the same. For other people who cache as a team but post in the forum as individuals, they will be different. For example: "Pesky!" in the forum is part of the team "The GeoMonkeys"

To see what your usernames are, have a look at your posts in the forum:

  • If you see a little button marked "Cacher", press that and you'll go to your Cacher Page
  • If you don't see the little button, your Cacher Name hasn't been set up


Setting up your Cacher Name

Again, this is a little clunky at the moment, but we are working on improving it.

To set up your cacher name, a request to set up your cacher name with the subject line "Please set up my cacher name as name"

Names are case sensitive, so "myname" is NOT the same as "MyName" We usually set them up within a day or so. Posts like this will go into the system but are not visible to you once you have You will see an error message when you make this request. That is normal.
