MAPAS/MAPS / Re: Customize Onlinemapsources.xml

Regarding my previous post - SOLVED!
The uid was not unique! I had used a uid=4 as it was my fourth entry in my custom onlinemapsources.xml file. However, the standard onlinemapsources.xml file has a uid=4 used by OpenStreetmap Mapnik. When I changed the uid to a unique number, in this case uid=5, this new online mapsource now works with no problems.

I am trying to add GetLost Online Maps to Oruxmaps via a customised onlinemapsources.xml. On the Get lost web site at: https://www.getlost.com.au/downloads/the-map-table/ they specify:

"The details you'll need inside the settings of some apps, where you add and configure a new map provider, are:
URL: https://live.getlost.com.au/{z}/{x}/{y}.jpg
Zoom levels: 2-18"

I have customised my onlinemapsources.xml with the additional lines:

    <onlinemapsource uid="4">
        <name>Live Get Lost Maps Custom</name>
        <url><![CDATA[https://live.getlost.com.au/{$z}/{$x}/{$y}.jpg]]></url>
        <minzoom>2</minzoom>
        <maxzoom>18</maxzoom>
        <projection>MERCATORESFERICA</projection>
        <httpparam name=""></httpparam>
        <cacheable>1</cacheable>
        <downloadable>1</downloadable>
        <maxtilesday>0</maxtilesday>
        <maxthreads>0</maxthreads>
        <xop></xop>
        <yop></yop>
        <zop></zop>
        <qop></qop>
        <sop></sop>
    </onlinemapsource>

When in Oruxmaps I switch maps and select Online > Layers no entry for Get Lost Maps appears. I get no error messages. So a bit stuck as to how to debug this problem. I can access this online source without problems using other applications such as QGIS.
