I haven't bothered to try since. Because of that, I've been using UR-MP predominately and sometimes URO+ for certain of its tools. When I use UR-MP, I've found the best way for me is to export my scan as a CSV and then work from that. It gives me a PL to drag to my browser which I find works when i get the spinning cursor from clicking the link icon in the last column of UR-MP sometimes. It also gives me the UR ID that I can use to search with in URO+.

I would prefer to use URC-E because I would have everything I need when working URs. I especially like the pill count with its day / comment count. I don't use the Automatic Reply options.
Replace the Next Update Request button with a Done button. is another option I prefer. I'd rather save after a change rather than letting them build up to where I don't remember how many changes I've done.
Filtering I'll use when searching for specific days worth of URs, i.e. Hide by description, comment, following.

I've used Issue Tracker, but I don't like the fact that the UR pills show no information, there is no coloring to them to indicate which are mine and which belong to others. I do like the balloon effect that happens in Issue Tracker when a UR is selected.

There's always a time to come back around and try again.. LOL. At least until Waze decides to remove some sort of backend functionality rendering some of the script unable to work..

However, with the latest changes to WME, Issue Tracker (that kind of screwed the way we were working) and as well the changes to URComments makes it very slow to use, very time consuming.

What specifically is slow about it?

I don't feel comfortable adding this.

This was NEVER how URC-E operated. Prior to the Issue Tracker, in order for URC-E to "auto send a reminder comment", the UR marker MUST exist on the screen (in the view you are looking at). That was ALWAYS the way it worked. I never had to check if the marker existed on the screen as the backend data was only being loaded for the URs that existed within the view of your screen.

Once the Issue Tracker was added by Waze, it changed how the actual backend data was loaded. Now all URs that match your filter will be loaded into your backend session, including URs that could be hundreds of miles outside your view. For a brief period of time, I didn't realize this was happening so I didn't have the code in place to "keep URC-E operating in the same way it had always operated" (read: To automatically send reminders to ONLY those URs on the screen. I have fixed this.

The biggest reason I do not support sending to ALL URs in your filter is because those URs exist all over the place. I have never been a proponent of automation that doesn't involve user input. This type of "auto send reminder" is such an automation. I was VERY CLOSE to removing it all together. As @turbmkt stated, there was much discussion on this and the compromise was to leave the function in place, but to put it back so it worked as it always had. URs MUST be loaded in your view. There is far too much that could go wrong if I were to allow it to send to potentially thousands of URs. Zoom level 12 is the minimum zoom level and will not change, unless WME changes. Waze staff has already confirmed it is a bug that the UR trackers and UR markers are showing up at zoom levels 4-11 and they will be fixing it. When you are at zoom levels 4-11, there are tons of errors from the backend servers. I will not change this level as it won't work anyway once Waze fixes the bug. What's wrong with being at zoom level 12 and just panning around the map to auto send reminders? Zoom level 12 is pretty high and covers most of the largest cities in the US, so I would assume lots of the cities in other countries as well. If you feel like it should be changed to allow auto-sending to all URs in your list, I would ask you to bring it up to the rest of the Global Champs and get their input on the subject. If you all come to the agreement to allow the increase, I will do it. But, I can almost assure you they won't agree.

spookyx wrote: ↑Mon Apr 17, 2023 8:48 am Also, there seems to be a bug that is still caused by the URC-E: closed URs are being displayed even if the Issue Tracker filter is set to Open only. This forces me to activate the URC-E filtering to hide the closed UR.

Probably because you have UR overflow enabled. I will show all URs, regardless of filtering. I don't have the time to try to figure out how they are filtering / setting the options so I can filter for that as well. One day I may (once the Issue Tracker matures), but for now I won't. UR Overflow will show ALL URs, regardless of your Issue Tracker filter settings. You'll need to continue using URC-E filter settings to filter markers.

This appears to be a new feature of WME. It happens in vanilla WME.

Maybe I am wrong but I only saw the option to use one custom G sheet, So I was using the old script for my local area and the Custom G sheet for Pakistan.

Is there an easy way to use two different Custom G Sheets?

Ps: the error message I receive provides a link to place holder message with no instructions.

It wasn't on purpose. But I soon will break the old (almost 5 years now) WME URComments Custom List function. I don't want to keep supporting something I specifically wrote URC-E to replace, almost 5 years ago. I event took the time to write out a detailed "how to convert" help AND created all the necessary support documents you will need for you. I made it incredibly simple. Even a couple releases ago I updated the conversion steps to be inline with Google changes.

So, please, upgrade to Google Sheets. You can use your own custom sheet, but please stop using something 5 years old that hasn't been touched.
