I need help with this as well-I recently approved a member and all of my previous markers went away!

Try that Markers file, its almost always the problem.

I did-I deleted the whole image file and still no change

Deleted the whole image file? I'm not sure what you mean.

When you run markers.xml does it show any "red" entries?

I meant that I deleted the ping image for the last user I approved. I also put him off line and markers are still gone. As far as markers .xlm and red entries I don't understand that procedure.

All you have to do is run the markers.xml.

Like...http://www.yoursite.com/forum/markers.xml <--that is an example, you'll have to use the path to the file on your server

Entries will show up red in there if the add on doesn't like them. Track the entry to one of your members and edit the image out. That should bring them back

okay,

I've installed and I'm now totally scratching my head, I have a couple of questions that may help me get this working. In essence the problem is that I can set my location and see the pin on the smaller map. But when I goto the main map it has no pin showing.

1. Permissions set in usergroups okay
2. Auto Approve done
3. Legend images showing fine so path is fine
4. Markers.xml is set to 777 and I've opened to confirm data being written

Now when you put your location into the map and the instructions don't clearely explain this but what is meant to goto in the URL of the image for the marker box ?

This is the only thing that I thing might be a fault. HOwever, I can't imaging it would be the path to the pin as this should be done by the ledgend.....any clues pls.

Its shows current markers correct and data is in the database.

A quick response would be great as I would rather fix than remove as it seems so close.

Remove the image links

specifically, this: http://www.rcheliaddict.co.uk/images.../mm_20_red.png

Thanks Bonnie, That's error number four now! My map used to work with the small mini map then all of a sudden stopped showing the markers. I checked the markers.xml to find no errors, then checked the other three errors I'm aware of and that flagged no errors...... but still no markers. Then I tried turning off my mini map and all 250 markers are back.

Thanks again Bonnie you're a star thanks for the info. :D

Went to my entry and removed the url of image marker and ran the cron and still no pin. Checked the database and the pimage is empty now.

What is the purpose for this field.
