I have seen some nifty stat charts, lists, etc on some profiles and would like them on ours.

Can any body tell us (in very plain non computus mentus english) how to get them

Kiitos

You have a few choices but the first thing you will need to do for any of them is run the 'My Finds' PQ in the Pocket Query section.

 

You can then either upload the data to a website such as My Geocaching Profile or if you have GSAK then you can run the data through a macro.

 

Let us know if you do use GSAK and we can give you more details, but if you don't, My Geocaching Profile is a good place to start

The best thing to do is find someone's profile that you like, I think they all have a link on somewhere directing you to the website/ programme where the stats programme can be found. Follow the link and see where you end up, then if you need help on getting it right pop back here.

 

 

I use GSAK see my profile

another vote for GSAK and the my stats 4.0 macro.

I use GSAK but I've complicated things by splitting hides and finds into separate tabs on our profile

 

I wrote this simple cribsheet (for the normal output) a few months ago for a couple of local cachers

I use my geocaching profile if you want to see what that looks like, although it does have other options I have switched off, and there is a linky at the bottom of the page. I like it because its free and I still haven't got my head round gsak

Thanks for the ideas but I really am Non computer literate.

I tried Delta68's crib sheet and got stuck at "Now load you My Finds Pocket Query into the database"

Any more hints?

Thaks in advance

Download the myfinds PQ from GC.com to your PC. Then in GSAK create a new database called something like Myfinds, then click on the open file icon navigate to where you save the PQ and it will upload it.

I cannot find "myfinds PQ from GC.com " so I am stuck.

Thanks for the idea's anyway

But I'll just stick to finding the caches

Go to: http://www.geocaching.com/pocket/default.aspx

 

Scroll down to "Add to Queue' and click.

 

Wait 'a short while'* and the MyFinds PQ will appear in the second tab marked "Pocket Queries Ready for Download" on the page http://www.geocaching.com/pocket/default.aspx

 

*Usually 2 to 10 minutes
