Aaaah !! Thanks to Boots for making me look at this again.

When I couldn't get closer than a couple of streets away I was zooming in on the 'Hybrid' view in the Profile area. This only zoomed in so far and then said that it didn't have the data available to zoom any further. However, changing the view to 'Map' allowed me to zoom right in to street level and I could then delete my marker and re-set it at the exact place.

Excellent stuff.

Cheers, take care, and have agreat 2006.

Hey! Slack what is happening with the Google member map? Has it been deemed not suitable. I notice that the link in your post now points to the Forum.

Waiting for them to upgrade it so it will work with the version of the forum software.... and hopefully add some features.

The database remains intact - so folks will not loose their pins if the mod gets updated and I am able to install again.

Cheers for that Slack. Hope it is not too long.

Okey Dokey the forum integrated Member Map is back.

You like this better than Frappr map I take it?

[Slack]

Also, I've updated the Member Map link under the User Menu to go to the Integrated MM.

[boots]

Yes I like it better. Get a much more accurate pin position.

An Error Has Occurred!

Sorry, you're not allowed to view the Member Map.

Is this just me

[SteveMcBill]

No Boots - not just you. I get exactly the same message.

Cheers.

Great work Slack all is good.

Yeah, I do too.  I think I'll unpublish the Frappr map and move the Member Map link from the User Menu to the Main Menu.  That way Guests can view the map, but you must be registered to place your pin.

Let's encourage folks to place their pins on the integrated map and see if we have any further problems --- I know Alex had problems with dial up and I don't think either map is compatible with Macs - but don't know that for sure.

Cheers,

Good idea. We got quite a few pins on the Frapper and I feel when Weenies see this one they'll be  a stampede.

I remember Alex having problems getting his pin anywhere near it should be. Being on dial-up does make it a less enticing feature if you're waiting minutes for it to load.

I don't think either map is compatible with Macs

This is odd being that Macs are such a favourite with graphics people.

Edit: tag error.
