+Valentijn77 Posted October 4, 2009 Share Posted October 4, 2009 Hi, Is there an official way to make feature requests? One of the things I am curious about for cache is to see their recent inventory activity. Which (Trackable) items have gone in and out. I would expect this information to be available at the inventory history. But the inventory history lacks a sort option to get this information easily. By default it sorts by name. Other options are last log and distance. What I would like to have is chronological overview of trackable item activity for this cache. The sort by last log option shows the items ordered by there last log, which can or will put items at the top of the list, while they haven't been in the applicable cache for months/years. Just like the 'normal' cache logs are in chronological order, I would like 'trackable item' logs for a cache to be in chronological order as well. Let me know what you think (and how to convince Groundspeak to implement it). Thanks Link to comment

I support this idea! Another interesting sort option would be by distance from your home coordinates, not so useful for trackables by cache but interesting if you are trying to locate spesific icons. For example: http://www.geocaching.com/track/search.asp...75-480088f0f820 (Here sort by last log does a good job, but this was only an example.) Link to comment

Agreed, also good search option. Frankly I don't understand why the chronological search option isn't already there, as it's probably the first thing that came to mind when I found my first cache. Pitty the geocache platform isn't open-source, otherwise I could have contributed some development. Edited October 4, 2009 by Opperpanter Link to comment
+beejay&esskay Posted October 4, 2009 Share Posted October 4, 2009 Yes, allow sort by "date arrived" and "date left". Link to comment
+Valentijn77 Posted October 4, 2009 Author Share Posted October 4, 2009 How to get Groudnspeak to implement it? It is not a big feature. Link to comment
Motorcycle_Mama Posted October 4, 2009 Share Posted October 4, 2009 You've posted a thread requesting the feature, and the Lackey's read this forum. That's all you need to do. They may or may not respond in the thread. And they may or may not implement it. Link to comment

Or at least a specific forum for feature requests. Link to comment
+Lil Devil Posted October 6, 2009 Share Posted October 6, 2009 Or at least a specific forum for feature requests. You didn't read what the Mama in leather said. This *is* the forum section for feature requests. Link to comment
