"Search by Filter" support by c:geo Connectors

'Search by filter' performs online cache searches e.g. on Geocaching.com or opencaching.de using a provided filter. However, search capabilities of these platforms are much more limited than what is available by c:geo filter system. Thus, depending on service capability, only part of the filter is executed online - the remainder is done in c:geo by further filtering the search result.

The following table lists the online search capabilities of the different caching platforms. All services only support AND filters (no OR filters and no filter inversion).
