In the past my recent finds have updated almost as soon as I logged them. Now it has been almost 24 hours and none of my finds have updated. I have logged on and off the site more than once in this time. I think this just started today.
I have other problems at this time as well, all of which started about 10 days ago:
1. I do not have the ability to click on my caching name in the upper right hand corner to bring up my statistics.
2. As I move around the site I will at seemingly random times be logged out, even though I always click the keep me logged in box when I log in.
3. The caches that I have found/own are no longer highlighted on any pages, even if I am logged in.
Since I haven't seen any others complain of these issues I thought that it might just be at my end so I have tried two different browsers (Chrome and Microsoft Edge) but that didn't help. It still could be at my end, but I thought I'd let you know of my issues.
Thanks for all your work on this site.

Re: finds not updating and other issues
Same was happening to me. When I logged in it shows that I am logged in but I'm unable to click my name in the upper right to go to my statistics page. When viewing lists of caches my found caches were no longer highlighted.
I went into my profile and renewed the authorization to geocaching.com and that seems to have restored the site to normal operation.

Re: finds not updating and other issues
After reading Two Turtles post I renewed my authorization and that seems to have solved my problems as well, although I haven't done enough yet to be sure that I won't randomly be logged out.

Cool, I renewed my authorization as well and now I see my recent hides. Thanks for posting!

Re: finds not updating and other issues
Sorry not to respond sooner to this but I've been traveling most of the last two weeks, mostly up on the Kaibab Plateau in northern AZ but also in CA.
July 7, 2015, Groundspeak started expiring authorization tokens that are 90 or more day old. Now tokens will always expire after 90 days. This is what you were seeing. I hope to update the site to let you know when your token is about to expire or is expired.
At this time, the easiest way to tell that your token is expired is when your geocaching.com avatar does not show up on the upper right side of a LonelyCache web page.
