This page is a Work in progress and needs severe fixes.

Feel free to contribute by editing the page. When it has the information needed in a readable form and in a decent formatted way, remove the FIXME template-tag.

Reason: WIP! Complete the documentation of the system.



General

Custom Filters is a feature whereby users with a paid membership can create advanced pre-defined filters to use in some top lists and tools. Custom filters also include more filter options that are not always available in other filters, such as attributes and filters on recent logs. A pre-defined filter is created by the system as an example.

The page shows a list of the current filters the user has created, these can be edited by marking a filter and clicking the button labeled "Edit" or deleted by doing the same but using the button labeled "Delete". The button labeled "New" is used to create a new filter.

Creation

When creating a filter the user adds their own name to the box labeled "Filter name", the name is later used in the filter-system. Next step is to add statements to the filter, added statements are listed under the name and can be edited or removed similar to how filters can be edited or deleted.

Adding multiple statements to a filter will give a filter that shows caches that match any of the different statement-rows. For example a statement that requires the attribute "Parking nearby" and a different statement that requires the attribute "Park and grab" would result in caches that have at least one of these attributes when used.

When all statements have been added the filter needs to be saved by using the button labeled "Save", this adds the filter to the list of filters and it's ready for use.

Possible options

When adding a new statement to a filter there are three tabs with different filtering options and a fourth not yet implemented option for Bookmark lists. Options from all different tabs can be combined into a single statement that can be added to the filter with the button "Add to filter".
