Attila_G Posted August 23, 2017 Report Share Posted August 23, 2017 Cachly only show me 17 friends in the list but I got 45 friends on the geocaching website. Bug? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nic Hubbard Posted August 23, 2017 Report Share Posted August 23, 2017 No. The friends you see in Cachly are your Cachly friends. There is no API to connect with the friends list that is on geocaching.com. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Attila_G Posted August 23, 2017 Author Report Share Posted August 23, 2017 Ok, sorry I misunderstood this feature. Thanks for clearifying. Nic Hubbard 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kyzabra Posted August 26, 2017 Report Share Posted August 26, 2017 Further to this thread Nic, is there any plan to expand the friend functionality ? It would be really cool to be able to view a cache, then view which of your friends had logged it. Great for PAF. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't know how, but I know this is a feature on the android app C:GEO. I'm not sure if it works on the live API or downloaded files but either way, what a great tool.

rragan Posted August 27, 2017 Report Share Posted August 27, 2017 I don't use c:Geo but I'm curious if it deals with the older logs when scraping. In typical web use, logs are added to the page as you scroll down or ask for more logs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As mentioned, c:geo screen scrapes and performs this feature illegally against the best wishes of HQ. We cannot and won't do this. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
