Pocket Query, pull ALL logs for a cache....

Is their a way to pull all the logs for a particular geocache using the Pocket Query? By all logs I mean all logs no matter how many logs there are or of what type? (Found, DNF, Archived, Disabled, Write note, etc...) All of them NOT just the last 5 logs.

 

If there is obviously I haven't figured it out.

 

Thanks

With GSAK and a add-in macro (called AddLogs) is the only way I know.

 

PQs only return 5 logs and, as Potato Finder says, a .gpx from the cache page itself will return 20 logs.

Only on your caches.

No, you get 20 logs on any cache, plus any logs you've posted to that cache.

I responded to the first part of the answer! :laughing:

The GSAK macro only gets all logs on caches you own. :laughing:

 

Maybe I should have snipped the quoted bit, and removed the second part. B)

 

:D

 

and now me speelins gone to pot! :D

If you pull a .gpx off the cache page you will get the most recent 20 plus your own.

 

Is this a cache that you own?

 

I have GSAK and when I do a pocket query for caches that I own, it only pulls the last 5 logs. I have just now started using GSAK, So when I do one of the Macros for statistics on my cache hides, it says that a cache Hide I have has only been found 5 times, when in fact I have a cache that has been found almost 125 times.

 

Plus there are a few other caches that I don't own that I would like to see all the logs for from my comptuer when it isn't connected to the internet.

 

What do you mean by pull a .gpx off the cache page?

The Name of the Macro is "AddLogs"?

 

Do you know how it works? Do I have to download a GPX first or what? Do I have to be connected to the net when the macro itself runs?

Addlogs only works on caches that you own (seems it used to work on all but it's been changed so you can't scrape the database - valid approach to avoid violating the TOU).

 

You do not have to download a GPX first (that would only contain the last 20 logs anyway). Just highlight your owned log and then run the macro. It will allow you to then select the log types you want and then will execute.

 

And, yes, you have to be connected to the internet.

And, Clyde's request -he created GSAK- once you have your logs up to date use regular PQ's or the GPX file from the cache page, to avoid GSAK putting to much pressure on Groundspeak servers.

 

GPX file on the page, download into a folder. Find that folder with GSAK, 'load files' with GSAK.

IF you have several files it helps GSAK if you put them in one folder.
