+Tsegi Mike and Desert Viking Posted June 16, 2003 Posted June 16, 2003 Has anyone figured it out yet? To do an advanced search to filter for locationless caches, I HAVE to put in zip code/state/other qualifier. Not all locationless caches show up this way. Or is this a problem to be addressed at some point (hopefully soon)? ************ Till a voice, as bad as Conscience, rang interminable changes On one everlasting Whisper day and night repeated -- so: "Something hidden.

+Renegade Knight Posted June 16, 2003 Posted June 16, 2003 I'm halfway done converting them all to a list to carry in my PDA. But I don't know how to filter then to find the one that's for a hummingbird next on the south side of a north line for example. ===================== Wherever you go there you are.
+Hard Oiler Posted June 16, 2003 Posted June 16, 2003 Somewhere a while back was the answer - use Pocket Query which allows you to filter for locationless and to select multiple countries, states. At the time I got them all into one gpx file, spun it and plucked it onto my PDA. Very simple, very quick. Only problem is I can't find where I saw that thread but maybe someone can find it.

+Tsegi Mike and Desert Viking Posted June 16, 2003 Author Posted June 16, 2003 Is there a way to do it without the pocket query (for those non-members)? Thanks for the help so far and the patience as well. Till a voice, as bad as Conscience, rang interminable changes On one everlasting Whisper day and night repeated -- so: "Something hidden.

+Toojin Posted June 16, 2003 Posted June 16, 2003 Prior to this last Sunday (June 15th), I could enter http://www.geocaching.com/seek/nearest.aspx?LTYPE=12 and get all Locationless caches. Now I have to specify a location. Seems a bit contradictory doesn't it.... ?? I just want to bring up a list. I don't have a PDA or any of that fun stuff...
iryshe Posted June 16, 2003 Posted June 16, 2003 Everything about locationless caches are contradictory, which is why my plan is to entirely redesign them so they do make sense. In the meantime I indicated in the nearest cache posting that I will be modifying the search page to allow searches of all locationless caches, as before. It will be done by Thursday.

+tofska Posted June 16, 2003 Posted June 16, 2003 Using 'By Coordinates' with a 0,0 origin gets some result, but it only seems to return 20 locationless caches on one page. Not sure why. Anyway, seems that all will be fixed on Thursday. Thanks Jeremy! M@

I used to also be able to sort by date with http://www.geocaching.com/seek/nearest.aspx?LTYPE=12&order=date But that is gone now as well.
+AstrosFan Posted June 20, 2003 Posted June 20, 2003 You will need to be logged on to do this I believe. Go to "My Cache Page". Then click on the hyperlink in the upper right corner that says "Search for nearest in (your state) or from your home coordinates". Then click on "New Search" from this page. Now look on this page for a hyperlink that says "View all locationless caches". This should get you what you want.
