	Only geocaches included in the VGPS upon Share are included when ~~fetching~~. If more geocaches are added the ~~share~~ must ~~be updated~~. This also ~~includes~~ removing and re-adding a geocache.		Only geocaches that were included in the VGPS when the sharer selects "Share" will be updated for the receiver when selecting "Fetch". If more geocaches are added to the VGPS later, the sharer must select "Share" again to make the corrected coordinates for the new caches available for the receiver (who has to run another "Fetch"). This also applies when removing and re-adding a geocache to the VGPS.

	Corrected coordinates are, as usual, looked for both in Personal cache notes (the first parsable has ~~prescidence~~)~~, and the proper Corrected coordinates field~~.		Corrected coordinates are, as usual, looked for both in the Corrected coordinates field and the Personal cache notes field (the first parsable has prescedence).

	Project-GC's Share corrected coordinates system never overwrites a solution for the Receiver. If the Receiver already has corrected coordinates those are kept for the Receiver.		Project-GC's Share corrected coordinates system never overwrites a solution for the Receiver. If the Receiver already has corrected coordinates those are kept for the Receiver (which means that if the receiver has an incorrect solution, it will be kept instead of an offered correct solution - Project-GC doesn't know which solution is better).

	The Fetch mechanism writes to the ~~receivers~~ Personal cache note. If there already is content Project-GC ~~prepends~~ its text. It will look something like:		The Fetch mechanism also writes to the receiver's Personal cache note. If there already is content Project-GC puts its text at the beginning. It will look something like:

	PGC-VGPS (<vgpsId>,<timestamp>): <coordinates>		PGC-VGPS (<vgpsId>,<timestamp>): <coordinates>

Imagine a shopping cart for Geocaches, that's what Virtual GPS is. Where ever you are at Project-GC, you can add hand picked, or a group of, geocaches into a list. This list can layer in be sorted, filtered, shared and exported. It's the perfect tool to handpick target geocaches for your trips, [[BadgeGen\|badges]] or [[challenge]]s.

			* If the user has found them
			* Alphabetically by GC-code, cache name, type, size, [[cache owner]], country, [[region]], [[county]], placed by name, added by, or any of the usernotes entered
			* By ascending cache ID, difficulty, terrain, latitude, longitude, elevation, number of finds, number of [[Favorite point\|FPs]], FP percent, or [[Wilson score]]
			* If the cache is locked, archived, disabled, or [[premium member only\|premium only]]
			* By earliest [[hidden date]], publish date, last find date, or last archive date
			* Latest logs - how many of the last 7 logs were finds
			* Source page / link - the page the cache was added from. Source link gives the link rather than the page title.
