Vossi, I am still getting the blank membermap page after commenting out the code because of the no permissions error and because I am on a Windows server. Any ideas on how to fix the blank page issue? Thanks in advance.

Looking forward to it. ;)

Will there be a file with all the maps in it, too, then?

Can you explain why the permissions need to be 777 for so many files? I am constantly fighting off bot nets, and files that are 777 are a sore spot for me.

Why can't these files be owned by the httpd server and 755 for that server? Makes me think I'm opening a back door on my server if I have to 777 files.

Thanks!

They need to be able to be read and written to by the server. No way around it, I'm afraid.

For the bots, do you have a robots.txt file in your domain root directory?

If the files are owned by the web server and mode 755, they are read/write by the server. The only thing going to 777 gives you over 755 is the ability for all groups and all users on the system writing to the file.

You're saying that the files need to be read/write by the server. I get that. But I still don't understand what you need them to be 777 instead of 755.

Yes, and my server doesn't have me set as a user up to do that do I have to use 777.

Maybe I missed it, but I have read through all of these posts and still cannot find if a world map has been created. I have members all over the world (australia, india, germany, uk, usa, canada, etc... you name it i got'em). This looks like a really good mod, but I need that world map before I install. I know this has got to be tough with such a busy thread, but you got something everyone wants.

Good work so far, and will be keeping an eye out for that world map.

don't hold your breath :-/ been waiting for a while

Costa Rica please!
Great addon... tried googlemaps before, but that was just to slow and didnt look good within my sitestyle.

I have members for all over the world, so this will only be useful if and hopefully when it becomes worldwide.

I do hope you get a worldwide one done as it would be a great addition to my forum and community.
