It's probably important to note that last month the little box to "enable listing" on the cache hide form, which used to be checked by default when you submitted a new listing, is no longer checked by default.
When you submit a new listing, you need to make sure that it's enabled. If the cache isn't enabled then I won't see it, no matter how long you wait.
The easiest way to know if it's enabled is to look at your cache page. It will say near the top (between the cache name and coordinates) if it's not enabled: "The reviewers will not see this listing until you enable it." |

You have to post an "enable" log. |

It's right below the box for the coordinates (the box with the map).

| I know a couple people that it snuck up on and they waited and waited for their caches to publish. After emailing the Wis. reviewer they were informed of the change. |

I found it odd, though, that they made that change without notifying anybody. It wasn't in release notes, for sure. I learned about it from a Groundspeak forum post when a user asked about it, and after several other posts, a reviewer finally came in with the answer.

They probably ran out of space in the weekly bulletin because it was taken up by announcements about Geocaching Challenges. |
