Point details shown on the cache page

In the past I showed the DGP points and a link to take them to the DGP now I need to change that to the Lonelycache website.
So when I revamp the simple code it brings them here but does not show the points on the cache page, so is it possible here or not?

Old code

<p><a href=
"http://dgpstats.com/cachedetails&c=206971"><img border="0"
src="http://dgpstats.com/dgplink.php?cache=206971&size=large"
alt="Visit Mountain Goat Scrambledetails at the dgp" /></a></p>

here is the one I have changed

<p><a href="http://www.lonelycache.com/GeocachePage ... 6094"><img border="0" src="http://www.lonelycache.com/GeocachePage ... size=large" alt="Visit Music Mountain Maze point details at Lonelycache.com" /></a></p>

I was just going to write about the same thing! I would love to display the LCP Points on my cache pages!

At this time the answer is no, but we plan to add that soon.

If you look at the html code you had to the DGP, before you changed it for LonelyCache, you'll note that there are two urls in it. One is to the cache page on the DGP and one dynamically creates the image used on the Geocaching.com cache page. As you found, the latter is not yet implemented.

Thanks
For now I could just revamp them to bring more traffic this way.
Appreciate all the work that was done to make this come into being.
