Location Mod

[Amacythe]

thanks, that fixed it

[ms_ukyankee]

My test board was totally screwed, I uploaded all fresh files and reapplied the mods again and it was sorted. Now it's up on my live board and all is well, thanks for this mod, it's fantastic.

One small question of personal customization, is it possible that instead of the alt text for the flag image in the posts having the flag country name, can it be changed to include the city name if it's been entered? Just not sure if that's included in the array or what it's called. I see it in the Display.template.php. Looks to me like it's not there, can Display.php be changed to included it? Thanks.

any idea when this mod is going to be 1.0.1 compatible... i'm on 1.0.1 at the moment and the load.php step is failing for me... however i had a test site on just 1.0 so i installed it there perfectly and then successfully managed to upgrade it to 1.0.1 with the membermap working... so it upgrades fine but it can't be installed on a clean version of 1.0.1... any ideas why?

also would it be possible to revert back to 1.0 install the mod then upgrade again, or would that just plain screw everything up?

[Gobalopper]

The mod should work fine with 1.0.1 that is what I used to test it with.

hmm... when i try to install it it comse up with a failure in the load.php modication...

so i clicked proceed anyway to see what happened and this is what i got...



Database Error
Column count doesn't match value count at row 1
File: /home/kodee/public_html/forums/Packages/temp/install.php
Line: 46

Note: It appears that your database may require an upgrade. Your forum files are currently at version SMF 1.0.1, whereas your database is at version SMF 1.0. It is recommended that you execute the latest version of upgrade.php. 



i used the package manager to upgrade to 1.0.1... if this error msg is right then only half my forum must be upgraded... am i supposed to be doing something else??

Great mod, been lokking for a while never considered there'd be one under my nose

So much better than others Ive seen..

Installed no problem through the pac man SMF 1.01

A mate modded the UK map for me so it shows county bounderies..

Only glitch Ive seen is that people on AOL get a US flag in the whose online...but thats down to IP recognition...

Somebody asked how to add more flags specifically England, Scotland , Wales...I'd like that to If anybodys done it  HOW ??

thanks all concerned

Please stop bumping with new posts....   if you want to add something, use the modify button...

Also...   it may take a little while for people who know what they're doing to 1) see the post, 2) investigate, 3) come up with some sort of answer and 4) actually answer...

[Gobalopper]

I'm not sure of the actual problem there... It could be the html of the template. It would be far too time consuming for me to debug it for all custom themes. But I will look into making it more portable in future versions... maybe having it in a popup or something.

I wasn't able to use this through the package manager.  I get the following message on a 1.0.1 board:

An Error Has Occurred!
The package you are trying to download or install is either corrupt or not compatible with this version of SMF.

I was able to grab Grudge's Buddy List without a problem though on the same board

could it be because the location points to a directory and not a tar.gz file?

Goballoper ...could youy please help with this?

[radicalb21]

The mod has been installed on my website but is only accessible to the Admins. I get the following an error has occurred and regular members can not view the MAP. I believe this is a permission issue. I need some help.

[Goosemoose]

It is a permission issue, look in your admin panel under permissions for your general users and click the box to allow them to see the map.

kindred ...if you did not want to ask..just dont say anythinh. And im not sure why you are giving me instructions. Goballoper   Please check your PM

[Gobalopper]

Well I can look into it but right now I am too busy with other things to actually code anything. Maybe in the next week but I can't guarantee...

I'm working on it.

[mytreo]

Yeah I get people from the principalities moaning too, they seem to think that they have their own country or something

I'm having a problem that when placing a pin the cursor is about 2 inches higher and 1 inch to the left of the actual pin. It makes for great fun and has been a talking point but I guess it's not meant to be like that. Is this likely because of my theme?

Cheers for the great mod Gobaloppper

I've attached flags for England, Scotland, and Wales, not the best but they'll do in a pinch.

Drop new flags into the flag directory, Themes/default/images/flags.

Then run this query in phpMyAdmin, being sure to replace the dbprefix with your own:

INSERT INTO dbprefix_location_country VALUES ('en', 'England', 5);
INSERT INTO dbprefix_location_country VALUES ('sx', 'Scotland', 5);
INSERT INTO dbprefix_location_country VALUES ('wa', 'Wales', 5);

Worked on mine, but use at your own risk.
