Member Map ?

[Gobalopper]

I might release a mod to the mod to make it similar to the old one in that aspect but it won't be in the initial release.

[Goosemoose]

Any news on this? I have had a few members ask about it.

[bulliedog]

Me too  *bump*

Perhaps instead of completely rewriting this, converting the YSE membermap script would be a better idea?  After all, there's no sense reinventing the wheel...

[Grudge]

Firstly - it is already rewritten I believe...

Secondly - SMF is wildly different to YaBBSE. Porting a YaBBSE MOD is akin to rewriting it - in fact I would be absolutely amazed if any single YaBBSE mod would work in SMF without being rewritten.

[ipggi]

That makes sense.  Well, at the very least I hope there is a way to convert YSE membermap info over to the new map....  I have nearly 4000 members that have location info already in their profiles.  heheh.

[Gobalopper]

Well there currently isn't any way to transfer the pins over as this is an entirely new system... I might write something to do it eventually but don't count on it, sorry.

OK, I can understand that G, but considering the number of current users I have it doesn't make me too enthusiastic about converting to the new version. No disrespect or anything, but that means a lot of work for us admins and it may not be worth it. But I do understand what you are saying.

Will there be the option to use several different regional maps as there was before, or will it only be a single, large world map like it is now?  My board has users worldwide and that means there will be several "blobs" of pins if it only uses one map.  Kinda cluttered I'd think...

Is there any news about the member map mod?  Is it out yet?

Thanks,
Roger

[Roger]

Any news?  I really would like this mod since a lot of my members are asking for it.  I had it while we were using Yabb SE and everybody loved it.

I'd be interested if this is in release or if there's a spot I can get a copy myself.

Thanks,

Any word on this mod?

Roger

[TheDel]

The people are waiting for this one- me too

anyword yet?

[Redeye]

Me too. Can we have an update?

[RCHawaii]

The world map is just one of the maps. The current version has these maps:

Africa
Australia
Canada
East Asia
Europe
Middle America
Russia
South America
USA
West Asia
North-West Europe
World

I have a worldwide membership- I would like to see this mod in action. Please Email me if I can help test it. I'm new, but this is something I need badly instead of a locator_script.pl to stand a world part form my competition. Thanks!!!

why don't you guys just get a bravenet one? its easy...

[ElLizzardo]

IMHO two issues with the Bravenet:

1) Not as cool or flexible as having it integrated in your own system
2) They have pop up advertising, which everyone hates.

Anybody interested in a stand alone system could check out globetrotter. I've been using it now for about two months...be warned, it's a monstrous pain to set up but it's pretty cool and flexible

PS, this is not intended as spam, but as an alternative program for people needing a member map system

[RCHawaii]

http://www.xenolth.biz/  didn't come up. Do you have this file/files setup info please?

Looks like their main site is down, but you can get the download here:
