Frequently asked questions:<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n

Why doesn\u2019t my Attribute Search return any caches?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The number of search results will depend on the caches available in your area that include the attributes you have selected. If you select two or more attributes, only caches with all selected attributes will be displayed. If you select the attributes \u201cBoat required\u201d and \u201cNight cache\u201d, you might not see any search results if there are no night caches on islands in your area.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

You may select up to ten attributes on Geocaching.com or as many as you like in the Geocaching\u00ae app. Please note that only caches with all selected attributes will be displayed in your search results.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

How can I exclude attributes from my search?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Attribute Search looks for geocaches that include certain attributes. If you are looking to exclude attributes from your search, let’s say you don’t have a UV light and want to exclude night caches that require one, you can use a Pocket Query<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

How can I include attributes in my search in their negative state?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Attribute Search only looks for geocaches with attributes in their positive state. You can search for attributes in their negative state using a Pocket Query<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
