Save as Bookmark list (PMO) error

Hello again,
sorry my German is not good enough for posting so I will stay with English.
Suddenly I'm having problems with the otherwise excellent script GCTour.
Running Win 10, Firefox 74.0, Tampermonkey 4.10.6105 and GcTour 4.15
All other monkey scripts disabled.
When I press Save as Bookmark List I get an error.
saveAsBookmarklist error
error:401, message:Unauthorized
What am I missing?

Hello yxza,

Groundspeak seems to have changed various mechanisms on the Websites this week.
As a result, some users are experiencing difficulties in displaying bookmark lists, logs on cache pages, view larger map on cache pages, etc. - while other users don't. Some examples from the Groundspeak forum:
https://forums.geocaching.com/GC/index.php?/topic/355828-bookmark-lists-not-showing-from-url
https://forums.geocaching.com/GC/index.php?/topic/355840-what-happened-to-the-logs-on-the-cache-page
https://forums.geocaching.com/GC/in...ion-not-working/&tab=comments#comment-5824481

Moreover, they changed the way of accessing page content by the Web API. This is the reason for the 401 error you're observing when trying to access bookmark lists.
For this change I doubt there will be a quick solution. But I'll have a look into it and see if something can be done.

By the way, the same 401 error happens when trying to run autoTour from a page other than the map pages. To avoid this, please run autoTour from the map pages only.

Hopefully Groundspeak investigates those issues soon and provides fixes. Let's see how the pages and the script behave afterwards.

Best regards,
Thomas

Hello Hans,

a new version is on its way.
That should especially solve the 401 error when trying to save a tour as bookmark list.

Best regards,
Thomas
