Pocket query without founds

[+witlesswanderers]

I am new to caching and am trying to download a PQ which does not include caches already found. I go to the And That box and tick all except already found but the result is no caches found. What am i doing wrong? (ps using windows 10)

PQs are not intuitive!

 

Leave boxes blank, and ONLY tick Caches I Have NOT Found

 

Ticking too many boxes can mean NO caches are selected.

 

eg select Caches I have found AND Caches I have not found results in NO caches in the PQ

If you ever want a PQ of your FOUND caches, scroll down and select the My Finds PQ

My Finds

 

You can receive a Pocket Query containing a list of all the caches you have found, along with your log entries. Running this query will add it to the current queue for the day.

 

* The Pocket Query can only run once every 3 days.

 

And click Add To Queue

 

Nothing to set up, it's all done for you.

and tick all except already found

 

Just check That:

I haven't found (and possibly)

Is Enabled

 

This will return enabled caches that you haven't found

 

By checking ALL, you're asking to see caches wthat ALL of the properties:

I haven't found

I don't own

I own

Are available to all users

Are for members only

Are not on my ignore list

Are on my watch list

Found in the last 7 days

Have not been found

Have Travel Bugs

Updated in the last 7 days

 

No cache has ALL of those properties, many properties are mutually exclusive pairs - no cache can BOTH be "I don't own" and "I own".

Or "available to all users" and "for members only".

Is Disabled Is Enabled

This will work:
