Invision Community 5: A video walkthrough creating a custom theme and homepage By Matt Thursday at 04:02 PM
CaptJeff Posted April 15, 2020 Posted April 15, 2020 How do I do that. I clicked on the link you provided. It took me to a topic about Zoom levels and API codes and a bunch of other stuff that does not apply to my question. I saw no place to start a topic or ask a question. Please keep in mind. I do not understand how this whole place works. I am just trying to get an answer to my question. Please be moderate with your disgust for my lack of knowledge on how this place works. It is set up way different then my community. If you wish to have a look go to HotAirBalloonist.com. Please do not tell me what I am doing wrong. Tell me HOW to get my issue fixed. Jeff
CaptJeff Posted April 15, 2020 Posted April 15, 2020 Here is a video that shows what I need help with. https:/www.hotairballoonist.com/Video/MemberMapNOSync.mp4
CaptJeff Posted April 15, 2020 Posted April 15, 2020 HI Everyone, I do not know how to start a topic in this forum so I must simply post a reply. I have some issues with the Member Map program on my site. I made a short video to show what I am having issues with. My site is www.hotairballoonist.com. The video can be found at https://www.hotairballoonist.com/Video/MemberMapNOSync.mp4 I thank you for any advice. Please take into consideration I am not a developer. I fly balloons. I understand just enough to get by and now and then a stroke of brilliance and I really screw things up. Thank you. Capt Jeff.

Martin A. Posted April 17, 2020 Author Posted April 17, 2020 (edited) On 4/15/2020 at 9:19 PM, CaptJeff said: Hi Jeff, The list on the right hand side will only show your members, grouped by the member group they belong in. The Ride Operators marker you use as an example is what would be named a "custom marker", or a "non-member marker", these do not show up on that list. The reason you don't see category for Registered guests when you go do Browse Markers is because all markers that are "member markers" is placed inside the Members category. A member can only have one "member marker", and having all those located in the same category is the easiest way (from a programming point of view) to ensure they can only have one. Hope this made sense to you 🙂 Edited April 17, 2020 by Martin A.
2002faq Posted May 6, 2020 Posted May 6, 2020 Unless I am missing something, i do not see a way to have a map block on a page. It would be great as the Member Map supports addresses from Pages. The map that can contain those exists, so i would love to be able to embed it. If not possible and no plan for it, can a link be generated to only show one group of markers? And one more feature request: Ability to set different markers for different Databases/Categories in Pages thank you! Steve K.
iacas Posted June 21, 2020 Posted June 21, 2020 @Martin A., how can I mark all the markers as "read" for a specific user (me)? Can I run a MySQL script? Can I visit a page and "mark all read" or something? https://thesandtrap.com/membermap/markers/group/1-members/ That's a page with a bunch of markers listed, and many/most of them are "unread." I'd like to clear them all out as "read." I can select them all, but can't mark them as read. I can feature them, hide them, etc.
kmk Posted June 24, 2020 Posted June 24, 2020 I am considering spend time to play this app, I have a question, what happen with this app if one day @Martin A. Can't continue support more?
kmk Posted June 24, 2020 Posted June 24, 2020 You can only have one member marker Is possible create more than one marker? I would like create a stores directory of my city...or this app is just for one marker by member? I can see the MapQuest video showing the Partial Search tool and alternative route tool, how can I apply these features in my members map?
kmk Posted June 24, 2020 Posted June 24, 2020 9 hours ago, kmk said: You can only have one member marker I think I understand that just is limit setting for Members Markers category. Someone can explain a little more below option? ---Group member markers by member group? ---Hide location for member markers

It should have behaved like the forums does, where you can click the icon on the category listing. I'll have to see why it's not doing that. The safest way to make it as read would be to mark your entire community as read. 16 hours ago, kmk said: I am considering spend time to play this app, I have a question, what happen with this app if one day @Martin A. Can't continue support more? Given the number of downloads and active users this app have, I'm fairly certain the rights to it will be given to someone else. 14 hours ago, kmk said: You can only have one member marker Is possible create more than one marker? I would like create a stores directory of my city...or this app is just for one marker by member? I can see the MapQuest video showing the Partial Search tool and alternative route tool, how can I apply these features in my members map? You answered the first one on your next post. The limit is there since the marker in the "Member Markers" category is used other places on the site, such as the mini map in your profile. 4 hours ago, kmk said: I think I understand that just is limit setting for Members Markers category. Someone can explain a little more below option? ---Group member markers by member group? ---Hide location for member markers The first one is for the list of markers in the sidebar. That list will only list markers from the member markers category, and you can have that list combined into groups defined by the member group. With that setting off you the list will be grouped by staff, following/friends and other members. For the second one I can't really explain it better than the settings description already does. "Some markers reveal the exact address for some members. Enable this to hide this information from all member markers. Markers in other groups are not affected" This affects both the marker popup and the marker page itself. kmk 1

kmk Posted June 26, 2020 Posted June 26, 2020 Using smartphone try to set my location... It need fixed... My ips is 4.4 Martin A. 1
kmk Posted June 26, 2020 Posted June 26, 2020 1. Is possible add notification for comments and reviews? 2. Is possible add more Direct Access to the Marker Message Box? example, I would like place there my Store link, my clubs list...
kmk Posted June 27, 2020 Posted June 27, 2020 I have created some Marker Groups, in desktop version can see the button Add Marker, but in mobile version the button Add Marker is missing. This is urgent for me, I have planned request my customers set their delivery address in the Marker, but most of my users (99.9%) use smartphone...
RocketStang Posted July 1, 2020 Posted July 1, 2020 (edited) Is it normal that my main map and mini-profile map show full hover cards in the marker pop-ups but the map view from the activity notification that is created when a member adds a marker is a plain white popup with just a username? Edited July 1, 2020 by RocketStang
RocketStang Posted July 2, 2020 Posted July 2, 2020 Can anyone tell me how to set the default map view to the USA and Europe? I can figure out how to set the bounding box and all that??
Adam.M Posted July 31, 2020 Posted July 31, 2020 Is there an example kml or kmz file somewhere in this 125 page thread? I’m trying to import markers and I keep getting errors. I’d also like to give members the option to add location but restricted to “closest major city”, disabling the street address. Is that possible? cool mod!!!

Adam.M Posted August 4, 2020 Posted August 4, 2020 Or, is there a way to download the current markers? I've tried multiple formats of kml and kmz and I keep getting errors. @Martin A. , just an FYI there is no link to this support topic on the download page. At least not that I could see.
svit Posted August 4, 2020 Posted August 4, 2020 (edited) I have upgraded to 4.5B10 and while the application works on the front end, I have noticed few glitches in the ACP - inability to add font awesome new icons from the offered list + a few other ones. Would it be possible to share any plans regarding upgrade of the application? Many thanks in advance. PS. I am receiving similar error message to this one: Edited August 4, 2020 by svit

There is currently no way to export the markers for use in other programs. Your only option is to export the database tables starting with "membermap_".

You want both the US and Europe to be in the same view? My first thought was to set the bounding box to "Santa Cruz das Flores", which is an island in the middle of the Atlantic. But since the zoom level setting is a maximum setting, and not a minimum, it would only focus on that island regardless. What does it look like it you don't define the bounding box at all?

For member markers you can select profile fields that are shown in the popup, but your request might be fore other markers? Sorry for the late response, people. After IPS updates this forum to 4.5 I were no longer following this topic, and as a result I never got any notifications about your questions.

Since IPS are already in 4.5B10, some of us have it installed on our live sites (I know it generally was not recommended, but in real world that's what admins were doing after series of Betas released in order to implement or test the new functionality on their sites) Some application authors have already updated their apps and had them approved in the official 4.5 marketplace. I myself have several of the newly approved apps installed on my live sites. I am mentioning this as I think it is really safe to update the apps being a developer and that the admins/clients would greatly benefit from apps being upgraded. I am afraid that it may more than another month to have the final 4.5 released, which could be far to long for many admins. Thanks for your consideration. Edited August 5, 2020 by svit Adam.M 1
