Well if SMF is anything like me, they will release 1.1 final over the holidays, I do have a new version I have been slowly pecking at when I have bits of free time.  But I have no clue when I will get it finshed.

[Gobo]

Really? Do we know when?

I'm not bothering with a port to RC3, certainly not if Final is imminent!!

Cheers, Ash

i dont know when but i do know its been released to the charter members already so its out basically but only to the exclusive club for now - im guessing we may have to wait for a month or so - dunno really

[SergeantAsh]

Wow, its already out, so soon after RC3?? I have to wonder what the point was releasing it? And feel incredibly sorry for all those that spent ages porting their forums and mods across!!

Hence why I held back and stuck with RC2, and will do until the Final it out   ;o)

[Niteblade]

There's a massive changelog between RC3 and 1.1 ..

[TLM]

If smf had not draged out getting 1.1 out while I was a charter member...

[SergeantAsh]

So why bother releasing RC3 at all if the changes are so drastic? They'd might as well held on till Final?

[Owain]

I am still running RC2 and would like to upgrade to final but dont want to loose my members map, any news on when the google map will be released for final?

In the new year maybe?

O.

[Gobo]

1.1 Final is out

Looking forward to the 1.1 compatible mod

[Niteblade]

TLM is massively busy.

Hopefully he'll do something after his exams are over. I for one know that financial bribery doesn't work with him. 

[Gobo]

dang! another wait!! lol

well good luck on his exams - may he pass with flying colors

looking forward to whenever he can update this

[Niteblade]

This and the *cough* rss injector *cough* mod..

[JoeLansing]

I'm waiting patiently for the 1.1 version.  I think TLM is very busy though.  His forum on http://www.mindlesstux.com [nofollow] looks like it's having a few issues he'll probably want to work on first.

As far as its going, is the change to simplepie and figure out how to do one or two more things.  Its no longer a mod at all, dispite the requests...

Yes, lets hope!  As for bribery, I take that in forms of people doing my evil homework for certain classes.

Yeah, I thought it would be a quick upgrade but SMF is broke somewhere or it broke something... 

dang! another wait!! lol

This week is study week and next is finals, after that two weeks then back to the grind of classes again.  Yes, If I do pass with flying colors, I know a book that is gonna be obliterated...  this very same book im taking a moment break from to respond...  This very same book I am hoping will be in a million peices or more by the end of the year...

If you cant tell I really hate this class, so if you see a movie on youtube about a guy taking a shotgun to a psychology book and unloading about oh a few boxes of ammo into the book, thats probally me...

[TLM]

As long as they did not change the major sections I work with on the mod, it should go rather quickly to 1.1.  Granted I am not expecting an easy update but should be possible from my 20 min glance at code.  That update on my site took place during a class I dont care about, where I could not reach my home box to dev but can reach my live site.

Once I get closer to a final product I'll be giving out info about my personal package server for a few people to test the mod before release.  Iv learned my lesson about releasing buggy software, no one understands its broke but works.

[JoeLansing]

Send me the new buggy stuff..  I've never installed your package yet.  I can try it on an RC3 system, and then try upgrading to 1.1, or just install it on a almost virgin 1.1 (only 1 theme installed), you choose.  Or I could try both for you and see how it goes?  I do a full backup before changes so I'm not much of a whiner when something breaks.    I do want Dilber MC theme 1.1 compatible before I upgrade to 1.1 though.  If I can get Dilber MC and Member Maps working on 1.1 I won't ask Santa for anything else..   I've got a nice AK-47  you can use 30 round clips with to bump fire at that book you hate.  Nothing like a little constructive destruction to lower the blood pressure..  -  Joe

[Gobo]

ok I got this to work for 1.1

BUT please know this - I am NOT the author of this mod so there may be things which do not function as expected which I have no clue about!

However on my page it seems to be working just fine.

For installing and changing settings:
You will have to go in via PHP myadmin and DISABLE the clustering.
To disable it go to your database click on PHP MYadmin and once you get the database layout in front of you select the table smf_settings
browse through the values until you come to: googleMapsEnableClusterer set this to 0
For new installs you will want to put in your API key in the feild: googleMapsKey
And if required (eventhough I set the value to enable by default) but if require to activate the map by setting this value to 1: googleMapsEnable

For some reason the settings no longer save via the admin panel so they have to be changed via phpmyadmin.

Well thats all ur mod will be enabled by default and I can just hope it works for u.
This is just a TEMPORARY solution for those who DESPERATELY need this mod and is not the OFFICIAL release from the AUTHOR!

Download (includes IE fix, V2 of map - but clustering will not work!)

Demo Here

[Dejv]

Thaks a lot akulion, this works!!!! Finally 

....

LOL... well, worked for a while until the webmaster closed my site because of 50-100% sever overload.
Do I need my own server to make this work?

I'm get an error now with my Google Map

Bottom left of IE "Error on Page" (The little yellow exclamation)

So when I double click on it:
Line: 421
Char: 5
Error: 'x' is null or not an object
Code: 0
URL: http://www.charlestonreefers.org/forum/index.php?action=googlemap

Anyway, the portion in the profile works fine.  Just not the map.
It shows the list of people with placed Pins, but nothing else.

No pins

[Gobo]

well I dont know about the error probably a Javascript error (since clustering wont work)

also check to see if u have clustering disabled - that it required for the map to work.
If not try to disable it via PHPmyadmin since it may not disable through the admin panel (at least it didnt in my case)

[emmaderijk]

are you sure about the smf_settings?

I have it running but my api key is wrong, opened phpmyadmin and
searched in smf_settings but with no luck

can you help me?

thanks
