Update geocache logs

Drumpldeer shared this idea 5 years ago

Is it possible to build in a button within the Geocaching-Logs-Menu to update the Logs?

Or perhabs also swipe down to update, like it is new in cgeo. ;-)

I have attached a image for an example, how what i mean.

Is it possible to implement this feature? It looks like also interesting for some other users. :-)

Is it possible to integrate this, please? Is the geocaching app actually still maintained at all? It would be a real shame if there were no more optimisations here, as many Locus users are also primarily Geocachers and only use Locus for that reason. I know this is a separate app, but the migration to Locus V4 and its adjustments have also been made. It would be nice if the app, or at least its part within Locus, could also be maintained by the Locus team if the G4L app developers can no longer or no longer want to do this.

Kind regards!

Jens

Hi, if Geocaching4Locus is maintained or not, I do not know. Anyway required functionality has to be implemented directly in the Locus Map itself.

Geocaching is currently not a hot topic for us because of some other priorities, but I believe we will find time on improving geocaching features during 2022. Thanks for understanding.

That sounds very good. I'm happy to wait if it's on the agenda. And sorry for bothering you, I've already seen that I have a lot of things to change. Thank you very much!

To be true, reminding is quite necessary. On this helpdesk is so much interesting topics to do, that more than the number of votes is important activity in the topic :)

Just a friendly bump on this topic. I know many people would appreciate this.

Could be combined with another idea of loading more than 30 logs: https://help.locusmap.eu/topic/37768-geocaching-infinite-logs

Hi guys,

"pull to refresh" will be implemented in the next app version 4.35.+

One more info ... there will be change in the behavior in published version.

A new "Refresh button" on the logs screen that reloads the latest logs (we used a toolbar button rather than swipe-down); older logs then load on scroll.

So:

  • upon open, you get current stored logs in the cache, nothing has changed here
  • on tap on refresh in the top bar, app throw away stored logs and load latest 50 logs from the web. Scroll down will start loading logs in pages per 50 > up to the end
  • logs will be in the cache for the time, point will be in the memory
  • to the database will be saved only logs based on the Settings >Geocaching > Stored logs limit

Thanks Menion, for this handy improvement!

Still one regular wish of my GC-collegues regarding logs: "Friend's logs" https://help.locusmap.eu/topic/24315-friends-who-found-the-geocache
Maybe a good time to think about it for Locus team, since you are into the technique of GC-logs right now ;-)

"since you are into the technique of GC-logs right now"

Oh, speaking of which... The order of log images is reversed from the order on the website, and has been that way for a few years. (...unless you've just fixed it; I haven't checked.) Minor.
