EDIT: got it. Sorry bout that. I had to edit the script file.

Very good mod

Is there any way to find a Greek map ?

Im using smf 1.0.6 and has install previous version of location mod.

My question is if i want to upgrade to the latest version should i uninstall the previousn version?
and will there be any problem with 1.0.6?


Thanks

@ aku: Yeah, it would probably be a good idea to uninstall the first one first. As for any problems, that I`m not sure about.

@ Yngwiedis: There are extra maps that come with it. Is there not a Greek map there

You can prolly add your own?

I installed this but it only gave me the option of the world map.

When trying to figure out how to get the other maps working, I think i installed it again.

Now I have two Location Map buttons on my boards. 

Trying to un-install it only un-installed 1 button, and now the other button doesnt work, just given errors all over the place.

Anyone know a quick fix for this?

Ok I managed to remove the non-working button (by replacing a backup file of index.template.php) but the Location Map link is still in my Admin Panel...

This is not too much of a problem, but I would like it to not be there!

Anyone know a fix for this!

...

Just out of interest, how do you install the other maps? As I only ever get the world map, and nothing else!

[Bigguy]

Install them through the package manager like you did the map mod.

Hi

Thats what I did!, but it said 'This is already Installed, you should un-install it first to stop any problems'... So I installed it anyway, and it gave me 2 Member Map buttons!... When I then un-installed it, only one of the buttons went away, leaving one button which gave the site errors ...

In the end I had to completly re-install my site from a backup (over-wrote all files) and re-installed the database from a backup.

I've done it now, but I had to download the extra maps, un-zip them, then I up-loaded the maps I wanted and entered the info direct in to my database by Myphp Admin.

Its working, great mod, by the way.

Just wondering if there is a Map of Spain, as this seems to be missing, or is the author working on that one?

I had the same problem as you, djalecc. However, I didn't hit proceed to install the package. In which part of the database do I put the maps? I already extracted the images.

@ djalecc: Thats wierd because all I did was use package manager and it all installed great. Glad you got it working though.

Hi.. Up load the Map Images you want to use to

Then you need to go in to your database via PHP My Admin.

Look for table called mm_maps and click INSERT

If you open the file called 'install.php' in a text editor like notepad, you will see the values you need to enter in to the database there... here are a few examples.

18, 'GB-IE.gif', 'United Kingdom', 2850, 3032, 415, 585, 4, 1
19, 'FR.gif', 'France', 2929, 3119, 560, 725, 4, 1
20, 'CZ-SK.gif', 'Czech Republic, Slovakia', 3170, 3330, 560, 625, 4, 1

Just enter the Values direct in to the boxes you see in PhpMyAdmin table mm_maps no need to enter the , or ' which soround the names etc, and make sure you enter then in order from top to bottom. (Example = After you click 'Insert' in phpmyadmin on the table mm_maps in the top box enter 18 in the second box enter GB-IE.gif in the third box enter United Kingdon in the 4th box enter 2850 in the 5th box enter 3032 in the 6th box enter 415 in the 7th box enter 585 in the 8th box enter 4 and in the 9th box enter 1. Then click the GO button to save it.

Providing you have uploaded the correct MAP GIF to the correct place, it will now show up correctly! 

Repeat the process for any map you have uploaded to the Maps folder!

Wow, thank you djalecc! I probably shouldn't hit proceed on the installation through package manager then, right? I'll try what you suggested and see if it works for me *crosses fingers*

Sorry if this has been covered... but can you fix the Location Mod to work with Firefox Browser? 

[HEB XI 1]

Works fine for me with FireFox ...

Make sure that you don't have the javascript file cached from before you installed the mod and also make sure that if you are using a custom theme that the javascript gets added to the javascript file for that theme.
