PQ Download to a List

[BAMBI11]

Hi, 

I would appreciate to add a function „delete list before download“ to the option menu of PQ download. 
Right now I have to navigate to the offline list to delete all Caches in the List before downloading the PQ. 
The background is, that if I do not delete the list first, all the „old“ and „found“ Caches are still in the list. I use the offline list to show me all not found Caches...

Thanks 

Daniel

You could always create a new list for the PQ, or, you could use Filtering on the list to hide your found and old caches. Would this help?

Well, this would be possible. However this additional option would simplify the process. 
 

An example: I have a PQ named „Home“. In this PQ I have all existing not found and not archived Caches within a radius of 20km. This PQ will be created once a week (or more often).

Of course it would be possible to create a new list for the new PQ. But then I have to delete the old one, because I don’t want to have „old“ offline lists. 
Filtering the list would also be an option, but with the time many found and archived Caches would be part of the list. I would delete and create a new one. 
 

I think for a one time PQ it is easy to create a new list or filter the list. However, for a serial PQ ist would be easier to have the option to replace the list with a new PQ.

Got it. Thanks!

Hi there,

is there any news on this feature request? I have the same use case as BAMBI11 and could really use a one-click update of an offline list based on a pocket query. 

I switched over from L4C and really like the rich functionality of Cachly 

Thanks
Stefan

If you have already saved the PQ as an offline list, you can use the "Update Caches" option to update the list. Does that help?

Hi - that was a fast response 

I noticed the "update caches" option, but it only updates the cache data of all caches in the offline list. It would not notice if there are new caches in the PQ or some caches dropped out of the list (e.g. because they are archived or temporary unavailable). So it is about synching the cache IDs that are on the PQ as well. Or did I get the "update caches" option wrong?

Kind regards
Stefan

Ah, ok, I understand now. 

No, there isn't a way to sync the PQ currently. I will look into adding an option to clear the list before importing/downloading the PQ again if this helps.
