Trying to figure out why my first cache, OU0196, is still in Status: Not Yet Available. It was published on 11-29, is there some action I need to take?

Yes. Open the cache page and change the status (top of page) to "Ready for Search". You should have received an e-mail from us with the following information:
Subject: [OC US] Cache Approved: <cache name>

Your cache, And Now For Something Completely Disorganized , was approved by the OC US Team but it is NOT yet available on the site!

You must visit the following page and change the status...
http://www.opencaching.us/editcache.php?cacheid=421

Near the top of the page, change the status to "Ready for Search".
Now scroll down to the bottom of the page and select the option "Publish Now" then click the "Submit" button.

On this page, you may also add additional waypoints, add images, select additional attributes, etc. The more information you provide about your cache, the more people will want to find it!

If you want the cache to go live on a future date, select the "Publish Date" option and specify the desired date/time.

Thank you!
The OC US Team

Thanks Dudley!

I did get an e-mail stating it was approved but everything else in the email was not English.

I just set the cache to "Ready to Search" (top of page) and selected "Publish Now" (bottom of page). Is that what you tried?
