Date range filters in tools

Fri, 13 Nov 2020 14:15:01 +0000

Why not update the To date to be the same as the From date when the selected To date is before the From date?

For example:
https://project-gc.com/Tools/ComingEvents
Updating the From field to a point past the To field does not update it
(Then again that specific filter accepts a To date before the From date)

Coming Events tool

Fri, 13 Nov 2020 09:04:14 +0000

Coming Events means in the future so why I can select dates that are in the past?

Why not make the date range filter
From: Today
To: Today + the max time a event can be published in the future?

Is there a possibility to generate a ProfileStat for a given Nickname at a given Date?

Like GC2YJXG where I need to answer some question about the first 1000 finds of the User this cache is dedicated to.

Tool - Hiding Date

Mon, 24 Feb 2020 20:50:44 +0000

Hello,
i think there was a tool where i could search for hiding date.
For example : placed on 29.02 and so on.

This was always easier than with a pocket query.

Unfortunately I can't find it anymore, can someone help me, if it doesn't exist anymore or if I am just blind ?

Cache Type Specific Finds by Found Date

Fri, 14 Feb 2020 15:34:09 +0000

So with the new badge gen badges there is an add on for finding the cache types on all 366 days of the year (i.e. Traditional every day, multi every day, mystery every day, etc.). Is there a way to get the finds by found date tool to show specific cache types to assist in the earning of these badge add-ons?

I found 1 cache hidden in July 2006. How can I identify that one cache?

Sun, 19 Jan 2020 21:37:58 +0000

When I look at my finds by month hidden, I can see the #1 in the square for 2006 / July. I need to identify that cache for a challenge. When I do a search, it defaults to "unfound" caches to help me fill in the calendar. But I'd like to search "found" caches for a specific date. Is that possible?

When did I perform maintainance on my caches?

Tue, 06 Mar 2018 09:42:51 +0000

I need to find out, when I performed maintainance on which of my geocaches.

Or in general: When did <OWNER> perform maintainance on his/her geocaches?

Result would be a list of geocaches sorted by year/month.

Can this be done in project-gc?

Events on the map should show date instead of amount of FP

Sat, 12 Mar 2016 09:58:01 +0000

It is bogging me for some time when I see different events on the map(s) and I have no idea when they are taking place. Instead I see that the event has "0 FP (0%, 0W)", which is useless information (events can't get FPs).

Would it be possible to swap the FP information for date of the event to produce another bit of usability? I am particularly interested in the Live Map, but it might be useful even in the others map based tools.

Feature Request: Needed Found Dates colour map

Sun, 25 Jan 2015 10:52:35 +0000

This is an idea for a possible improvement to the 'Needed Found Dates' page of the site.

I only have one date on which I haven't found a cache, that being the 29th February because there hasn't been a 29th February since I started caching and I have to wait until 2016 for the next one. I do, however, have approximately 60 days where I have only found one cache. I was wondering whether it would be possible to have a grid similar to the one displayed on the 'Map DT Matrix' which shows not only the days where you haven't yet found a cache, but also the days missing in the next 'loop'. For example, days with no caches could be coloured red, days with the next lowest count (in my case 1 cache) could be coloured yellow and all other days could be coloured green.

This would give cachers the challenge of finding caches on certain dates to complete their next calendar loop and lead to another statistic of the cacher with the highest number of caches on 366 days of the year.

Statistics - oldest cache found

Wed, 12 Nov 2014 14:19:51 +0000

As far as i know the oldest cache is from may 2000, so this date should be the absolut minimum in the statistics under oldest cache found.

I have found a cache - http://coord.info/GC1EHZP - that seams like it is hidden in 1998 !!

My sugestion for a fix: Ignore caches eith a hidden data before may 2000. Alternative use the published date if avaible.
