Portals missing from Intel

This is likely an Ingress-only issue, but, since it seems to involve moving wayspots, I figured I’d mention it here as well.

The short version is: A few portals I have recently moved have disappeared from the web based intel, but are still present and playable in the scanner.

I already filed a bug report for Ingress. This is a copy of that text, so has some Ingress specific terms (e.g., portals).

I do NOT expect any action from the Niantic folks on this forum. Just sharing information that is barely tangentially related.

Since I only play Ingress, I have no idea if these spots were previously playable nor their current status in any other game.


I’ve noticed that a few portals have disappeared from intel, but are still visible in the scanner (at least on Android).

Something all three have in common is: I recently had them moved. I have moved other ones as well (including some near these problem portals), that are fine. So I don’t know if this is a new issue, or I’ve just noticed, or if it has to do with how far they moved, or what.

Of the three that I have noticed, one has reappeared in intel. If it matters, the first two are on the Google MTV campus.

Charleston Park 37.423038,-122.081309
Plymouth Tilescape 37.417913,-122.084728 (this one reappeared)
Wild Life Utility Box 37.23664,-121.83994

Generally, portals with this issue re-appear when linked. Until the link dies.

Can verify that the portal came back after linking it.

I wish that Ingress still had a forum like this, at least for bugs. But, such is life.

There is also a bug with the hack/capture rings with moved PoI. They will appear in scanner as to having not been hacked/captured in the past but if you then captured them and your count won’t go up. Then come back another day and the rings are gone again.

Oh, it only shows up under IITC, not stock intel.
