Filtering by GC-Code from Tag
Previous conversation is [url=https://project-gc.com/forum/read?4,11980,11980#msg-11980]here[/url]

After Mar 2017, no documentation about qualifying the challenge is required from the finder. This means that the cache owner needs accurate tool to verify the claim, after the finder has logged the challenge as found. It is logically impossible that the challenge cache itself could be used prematurely before to qualify.

In many cases this is absolutely irrelevant but the result may be wrong. For example if the challenge needs one (1) found and the checker accepts the challenge itself, then it newnever fails when the owner confirms the finder's qualification with the checker - as it shoud.

Most effective solution could be a filter option for [i]PGC_GetFinds[/i] which use the [i]GC-Code[/i] from the [i]Tag[/i]. This way the [i]Tag[/i] is fully clonable and for a bonus there is no need to sequentially search the output to exlude this single cache.
