robinjessome Posted May 2, 2007 Share Posted May 2, 2007 Just stumbled upon this, and thought it might be cool. A map, where members can add a pin to their location - it'd be neat to see where everybody is. member map...some random forum Or something like this: another map (done like this) I dunno if this is easy, feasible, or what...just thought I'd bring it up... ...

Mike Posted May 2, 2007 Share Posted May 2, 2007 Lovely idea! While I don't have enough free time at the moment to research and implement this, I will bring it to chopin's attention. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chopin Posted May 16, 2007 Share Posted May 16, 2007 Ok I just installed this, but I have yet to figure out how it works. I will probably post instructions as soon as I figure this out. There is a link in the headers called "Map". Check it out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mike Posted May 16, 2007 Share Posted May 16, 2007 Argh. I hate to be a party pooper, but it won't actually work... I expect the link to be removed fairly shortly. :P It's a pre-packaged add-on that doesn't work with the latest incarnation of vB. I suspect a member map will have to be custom coded. Luckily, I have a lot more free time nowadays, so I should be able to cook up something. Eventually. :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bob stole my cookie Posted May 16, 2007 Share Posted May 16, 2007 Can we switch back to IPB then? :P Will the map work on it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mike Posted May 16, 2007 Share Posted May 16, 2007 Hehe, I was about to scold you for blasphemy but, as Google has revealed, there is in fact a working Member Map extension out for IPB. Rats. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Will Kirk Posted May 16, 2007 Share Posted May 16, 2007 I tried adding myself on the map, but it apparently thinks I don't exist Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
