+Trevelyan77 Posted July 7, 2016 Share Posted July 7, 2016 I have a few suggestions how to improve the current geocaching.com website/tools: 1) In the retractable sidebar (in the map view) one can filter cache types on the map. Another button filtering disabled caches too would be useful. 2) When I open the list of my caches, there used to be a button "map it". It disappeared now. Why? It was quite useful. 3) In the old version of the website in the map view there was a side bar (similar to the current retractable one) with a button "update". So after I logged my caches of the day, I just pushed the button and the logged caches disappeared from the map. Now I have to renew the website and set all filters again. That is very tedious, one button would be definitely helpful. 4) On the pocket queries page I can decide what combinations should appear in my selection, but I can only choose them in a from-to mode. So if I want just a few specific combinations (let's say D4/T3 and D1/T1), I have to produce two different PQs. It would be useful to have a matrix there where I could check different specific combinations. Trevelyan77 Quote Link to comment

Trevelyan77 Yes would love to see listings of caches in a certain range of D/T ratings and be able to filter out caches that are disabled. Quote Link to comment
+11sunshine Posted July 10, 2016 Share Posted July 10, 2016 Will there ever be adjustments made to make this page more Goggle Chrome/Internet Explorer 10 friendly. They seem to use a new format that does not allow downloads to my Magellan 610. Not completely sure of the correct terms but they both use a net format. Has anyone else had these problems?

Would i have to check each individual square below terrain 3 to get the right results? If so, nope,,, doesn't sound good at all. Quote Link to comment
+Trevelyan77 Posted July 11, 2016 Author Share Posted July 11, 2016 No, the trick would be in having both and an option of either/or.

+Mudfrog Posted July 11, 2016 Share Posted July 11, 2016 There would be times when i might use the clickable grid so yes, having both options available would be nifty. Quote Link to comment
