myfindgpx user is set wrong when searching as different user #248

Closed GoogleCodeExporter closed 9 years ago

Steps:

1. set Your GC.com login as USER1
2. set search type to "user"
3. set user to USER2
4. set output format to "myfindgpx"

When you now run the search, it's expected to set the "finder" in myfindgpx to 
USER2 - but geotoad set it to USER1

I'm using current developer version.

Yes.

In short: It's a feature, not a bug.

Long version: 
"myfindgpx" suggests that login user and query user are identical.
"user" queries, in the overview page, behave differently whether you ask for 
yourself or another account, presenting you with the last found date *overall*, 
*by me* or *by user*, in different arrangements.

If you replace <%out.adate%> in the log section of the template with 
<%out.mdate%>, you will get the right behaviour.

I will add a "yourfindgpx" format template to lib/templates.rb ...

Final question: are you trying to create input for GCStatistic while protecting 
your account (possibly sacrificing a dummy one)? I can't see another 
explanation...

Please try 3.16.1 which is supposed to fix this issue.
