Query : My First to Find

Post by spatialriq » 05 May 15 7:02 pm

Is there any way to dump out a list of caches you have in a hotlist, in this case 'My First to Find' list?

I've tried setting up a query to do so using the tag FTF or *FTF* but so far everything I try comes out with a count of 0 :(

If these are GC caches, add them to a bookmark list and then create a pocket query based on the bookmark list.
Project-gc might also offer some options, but I don't know if you're familiar with that site and some of the more advanced features require paid membership.

If you have put *FTF* in the log then GCA will automatically flag them, otherwise you can go and mark your FTFs on this site. Alternatively if you are trying to do it on the GC site I think you might have to set up a list in GSAK or something similar which could then use the Geocaching API assuming you are a premium member to refresh the cache data.

So, a downloadable list of the http://geocaching.com.au/my/hotlist/firsttofind/ page?

Not presently, but I'll add it to the Development list.

Thanks Craig.

Yes I've put *FTF* in most of my finds. Tried running a query using that tag but got nothing.

I've got some 250 over the years. I've recently got into GSAK and manually ticked all my FTF .. only problem is that there's a difference of 1 between the GCA and GSAK lists ... wanted to get a list dump out of GCA and compare it to GSAK. Not urgent, just a 'nice to have' :)

A Tag search will not search the text of a log, only any public or private tags placed on the caches page. If you go to the caches page on GCA and enter FTF in the Private Tags box and save em, it SHOULD work.
