Garmin Adventures

I played a bit with Adventures, but I have some problems and some questions:

I used high resolution images from my camera, but in the publishing process I got sometimes jQuery scripting errors.

After a converted the images to a lower resolution, the problems were gone.

I like to use a link in the description, see my example:
http://adventures.garmin.com/en-US/by/andre-wolff/rondwandeling-bij-mabodalen/

I did not succeed to construct a decent link. I tried it with html, but the description show the html code as you can see.
What is the correct way to define a link?

Although I selected metric units in BaseCamp, you see Miles in the Adventure.
How can I get km and meters there?


Finally I should like to know how I can edit the title/description of a picture. I see there now the file name, but I like to change this.
How should I do that?

Thanks in advance for your help!

If I look at this adventure on an iPad, I see that the text of the description overlaps the image.

Looks like you figured out how to do the description.

• Question related to archive: As I understand this keeps a copy in the cloud, but the adventure cannot be searched. So this would be the way to make an adventure private and only share it with them who receive the link from me. Is this correct?
  
• So far I can share the adventures in a lot of ways, but only once per link. It would be good to have a possibility to give people the chance to look at all my adventures. This might be a Facebook-app as well as a search tool. The major issue seems to be privacy settings, however.
  
• Waypoint icons are not transferred from BC, Geocaches show up as waypoints.
  
• The date in details is the upload date not the adventure date. I'd prefer the adventure date her, because the upload date is given in the header anyway.
  
• Geocache texts cannot be editet, so they are shown with my Fieldnote-text which are only a few abbreviations. I’d like to have a link to the geocaching.com site as well as a chance to enter the full log-text. No need to copy anything from gc.com
  
• Waypoint texts are shortened. Information texts that are entered via the tool in the adventure creator in BC are shortened, too. => Texts should be displayed in full if clicking on the icon or on the side-bar; alternatively they should be displayed in full length in the side-bar.
  
• Not sure which size pictures are uploaded, but if they are uploaded in a greater resolution than shown in the side bar, clicking on them should show the full resolution
  
• More map-sources (especially OSM and OCM) would be great – Google is missing so many small trails
  
• Please give me a chance to save standard settings. Even though I don’t care if the site is in German or English, I’d really like to have metric units instead of imperial, when I open an adventure.
  
• There seems to be a rating system (there are stars displayed in BC as well as on the online version) but I haven't found a way to use them.
  
• Editing online would help to improve the adventure, when I am not at the desktop where BC is installed.
  
• A counter for views and DL of an adventure would be nice. People being able to comment would be a nice feature as well.
  
• An online player like in BC would be a great thing
  

Thank you for your feedback.

Would you mind attaching a screenshot how the display is off on your iPad? Then I will forward this to our web developer.

We'll have to investigate what went wrong here. I see your adventures when I try to find them in BaseCamp, but they do not download.

Thanks for letting us know.

I just discovered this feature in Basecamp when uploading some tracks and photos. It works great in Basecamp, but when I both emailed and posted to Facebook, the link does not work--gives a 403 does not exist error. Am I doing something wrong?
