How to create pocket query

[+Kermie&MissPiggie]

I want to be able to do a search by owner and then create a pocket query from the results. I swear I was able to do that before but I can't figure it out. Is it still possible?

I don't believe you can do this.

 

However, you can go on their profile and get a list of all a specific owner's hides. Create a bookmark list of their hides and generate a PQ from that.

Exactly how do you do the part in bold? (Think of a user who has hidden several hundred or more caches.)

Just maybe this way? ↓

I can get a list of caches I want but I can't create a PQ. I have to download page by page each time I want to update. It's a battleship series so I have 113 caches and it only downloads 20 at a time.

The list you are downloading is only the preview to download it all at once, choose a day to run. If the total caches in the file is under 500 you will get an email with the file attached. If more than 500 you can download it from the pocket queries ready to download on your pq page. I reread your question and I think I left out a step or two. Check the listing page of the first couple of caches in the series and see if anyone has created a bookmark list. If not you will need to create one to easily create a pq. If all the caches you want are close together it may be easier to create a pq that includes extra caches and delete the ones you don't want.

You missed the bolded part of the quote. How does that create a bookmark list?

Thanks everyone and especially Team Taren. I bookmarked them all and created a PQ but there has to be an easier way to do it. It took me almost an hour to go into each one. We should be able to do the search and in addition to the download button we should have one that lets us create a PQ. We also shouldn't have to do 20 at a time. Hope Geocahing.com is listening.

Currently, there's no way through the website to do this. Could/Should there be, sure.

There have been several times where I wished I could take data that are already presented in a list format and convert it to a bookmark list. It would seem trivial but obviously isn't. On at least one occasion I resorted to downloading to GSAK and sending it back into a bookmark list. Tedious but it worked.

Good idea! I'll have to try that. Thanks.
