+java.lang Posted November 27, 2011 Share Posted November 27, 2011 Hi, I saw this has be proposed quite some times in the past, but still nothing seems to have changed, and by proposing it again I'd like to get some info from GS about wether this will be implemented eventually. This of course is just to examplify my situation: I once got a link to a cache in Vianna, Austria with the name "logical". I can't locate the link in the vast amount of links I have in my chatlog, so how can I find it again? The search page (just as the advanced search) doesn't allow me to combine a keyword search for 'logical' or 'logic' with a region based search within Austria/Vienna. Searching for 'logic' or 'logical' doesn't bring me any close to the cache since the total number of results is quite large. Searching by region isn't helping much either because there are quite some caches there. So my question is: Is it (or will it ever be) possible to combine multiple search criteria, or search within the results of another search? Quote Link to comment

I can help you out with your specific question http://www.geocaching.com/seek/cache_details.aspx?guid=2db8f388-2d9f-4347-a44a-c2cb9295db82 if the name is logical and also turn your attention to the site of aj-gps where you can solve problems of this type for Austrian caches. There is also a cache with the name logical W in Vienna http://www.geocaching.com/seek/cache_details.aspx?guid=8b4d55fe-71fa-4fad-a776-e0a34edd5375 Nevertheless, I also would love to be able to perform more complex searches directly on gc.com.

+java.lang Posted November 28, 2011 Author Share Posted November 28, 2011 I can help you out with your specific question Thanks - Already got the link in the meantime from a friend. My point here was mainly to point out a situation which may arise often and can't be solved easily by using just GC.com Quote Link to comment

My point here was mainly to point out a situation which may arise often and can't be solved easily by using just GC.com I'm very glad you made that request. It has needed to provide multiple search criteria for a long, long time. Perhaps in the very early days, what we have was sufficient but it certainly is not anymore. Quote Link to comment
