ivans Posted February 28 Report Share Posted February 28 The following issues might disappear in some future version of Cachly: 1. After updating saved caches, the images downloaded via GPX file disappear, replaced by gray placeholders with the original description. It’s amusing to see a gray square with the text “spoiler” 2. When the Highlight Color filter is enabled, highlighted caches vanish from the map after updating them. However, upon opening any such cache, the highlighted sidebar remains. Reapplying the cache highlight color is necessary, even if it’s the same color as in the sidebar. Another option is existing and useful bulk recovery via Manual Sync in the Settings. 3. I use field notes, accidentally marked the cache as found, no sync with the website. I can't get rid of the mark that the cache was found. I tried deleting the cache from Cachly and then re-uploading it from the site - strangely it was again marked as found in Cachly. Thanks for this great app. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I tested in an offline list and can't replicate. Can you show a screen video or exact steps and screens to replicate?

This will remove that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ivans Posted February 29 Author Report Share Posted February 29 Thanks for the fast response, I didn’t know Clear All Checkmarks option. Now I am working on examples for debugging. Just an example of grey place holders is attached. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ivans Posted February 29 Author Report Share Posted February 29 My workflow re grey placeholders: 1. In GSAK: Database/Grab Images2. In GSAK: File / Export / GPX3. File Test1.gpx moved to Dropbox4. In Cachly: Import GPX, Import from Dropbox, Options Save Images, Import5. Printscreen of map with cache6. cache opened, Images - 5 visible7. back to map, three dots, Update caches, Visible, Full Cache Data8. Four pictures still visible, instead of fifth image is placeholder and added other placeholders (btw Mobile Data are On in the iPhone and LTE coverage is great)Mostly I do have after this process place holders instead of ALL images. Images uploaded, gpx file is not supported, so look at the e-mail. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nic Hubbard Posted February 29 Report Share Posted February 29 Thanks for sending the file. I didn't have any issues. I imported it, chose to download images and they all showed when viewing the cache. Next, I chose to tap the ... on the maps screen, update caches with full data. Then I used the Download Cache images option to download images for all caches. Now viewing the cache images I see 17 fully loaded offline images. If I missed something can you explain?

ivans Posted February 29 Author Report Share Posted February 29 I see the following difference: I do have in the begining all images imported from gpx file, so I didn’t use Download Cache images after update cache with full data. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ivans Posted February 29 Author Report Share Posted February 29 You used the Download Cache Images function. Does this mean that the Update cache with full data does not download images? Anyway, I do not understand why images in Cachly are replaced by placeholders during update cache with full data. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am not seeing any images being replaced when you do a full data update. Cachly adds additional photos that are grey and then you need to download the image files.

ivans Posted March 7 Author Report Share Posted March 7 Am I understanding correctly that the “Update Caches / .. / Full Cache Data” command means full cache data excluding images? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Full cache data means it will include image data from 30 images from each geocache. Image data means the image comment and the URL of the image. It does not mean it is downloading the image. That is why there is an additional Download Images option. The reason this is separate is that if a user updated an offline list with 1000 caches, it is possible there could be 5,000-10,000 photos, which is huge.
