Member Map

[Axel Wers]

Custom markers?

Would be hard to include all marks? It's only one setting in addition.

[Bernabe Guerra Jr.]

How can I make all members automatically showup on the map when they login as a member based off their IP location? or does that happen automatically?

Please help..

Thanks,
Ben

Is it possible to display the minimap in the profile page to Satellite or Hybrid view ?

How ?

Thanks !

Edit: that should be a setting for the next version (profile page and the application page), would be cool !

Open ips.membermap.js

Around line 201 you should have

mapTypeId: google.maps.MapTypeId.ROADMAP,

Change that to either:

mapTypeId: google.maps.MapTypeId.SATELLITE,

OR

mapTypeId: google.maps.MapTypeId.HYBRID,

Save the file (re-upload), then you may need to clear your browser cache to see the change (CTRL+F5)

Perfect, thanks :)

Hi Ben,

I did write a reply and submit it, not sure where it went though :mad:

It's not available out of the box since you need access to a database to locate the region for the IP, they're also not that reliable either.

Can you confirm, I'm still using IPB 3.1.4, will this work and show a mini map in the member's portal?
Thanks, JB

The mini-map is a hook for 3.2 only I'm afraid.

Thanks Stuart...

Another thing to remember too, the flatfile database itself is 30MB, I don't think a shared host would like the resource usage.

[Bernabe Guerra Jr.]

Makes sense..

I created a custom Marker Group for testing purposes and now I want to delete it. But I get this message:

"That is just silly, you cannot move the markers to a group you are about to delete."

Of course… but I just have that group in the dropdown menu lol !
There's no markers yet in this group. What should I do ?

Thanks !

Ah, I see the bug

Open up /admin/applications_addon/other/membermap/modules_admin/membermap/cmarkers.php

Find (2 occurances, lines 137 & 155)

$this->registry->output->html .= $this->html->membermapMarkerGroupDeleteForm($this->_getGroupArray());

Replace both with:

$this->registry->output->html .= $this->html->membermapMarkerGroupDeleteForm($this->_getGroupArray($this->request['do']));

Perfect as usual :smile:

Hi, I want to use this on my site but I don't want the link to show in the main menu bar. I want to add a standard link elsewhere, in a topic, in a list of other maps.

Removing the name in the config disables the map completely. Adding the name activates the map but puts the title back in the top menu bar. I've seen other applications/hooks which allow you to hide the menu selection while keeping the application activated (IPDownloads is a good example). Is there a way of achieving this?

[ascott]

I keep getting this fatal error when I try to view the map

/applications_addon/other/membermap/modules_public/membermap/map.php on line 315

Is there something I've mist out?

Hi John,

You can edit the application in the 'Manage Applications' section of the ACP, you have the option to remove the menu tab (this is also the same for any application that you have installed).

I'm afraid that isn't the complete error, can you post the full error ?

Thanks

This is the whole error

Fatal error: Call to a member function mapTemplate() on a non-object in /home//public_html//applications_addon/other/membermap/modules_public/membermap/map.php on line 315

It looks like you need to recache your skins.

Goto Look & Feel > Template Tools > Click Recache Skin Sets

If that doesn't solve it, on the same page, under 'Rebuild Master Skin Data'

Check 'IP.Board Member Map' and the Rebuild HTML box.

Click Rebuild.

And then finally, recache your skin sets.

Thanks
Stuart

That worked a treat Stuart, thank you very much.

Now how do I make the map larger? at the moment it's just a narrow view.

That will require a CSS edit to alter the height of the container.

The value you will need to change is:

 #memberMapCanvasWrapper

 {

  height: 800px;

 }

[ascott]

Do I need to add this to one of the templates?

[stoo2000]

Do I need to add this to one of the templates?

No, If you go into the template editor, click the CSS tab, then click membermap.css.

Change that line to the height you require.

i.e

 #memberMapCanvasWrapper

 {

  height: 1000px;

 }
