Note: You need vB Frappr Member Map for this mod to work as intended.

This is a simple template edit that makes the member map page look more like other pages on your forums. You can see what it looks like here

Instructions

Edit "custom_membermap" (or whatever you named the template). Delete everything and replace with the following:

Don't forget to re-add your frapper code.

Also, if you want the page to display a shorter cleaner url (giving the illusion that the page is a seperate php file), use the following trick:

Create/Edit a .htaccess file in the same directory as your "misc.php" file. Add the following code into it:

Note: If you named your membermap template something else, be sure to replace "membermap" in the code above with the name of your template (without the "custom_").

Doing this will make going to YOURSITE.com/forum/membermap.php be the same as if going to YOURSITE.com/forum/misc.php?do=page&template=membermap

You can see it in action here

Thanks, il install it on my test forum and see what it looks like

Couldn't get the shorter url to work :S

Did you name the template custom_membermap? If you named it something else, than change the code in red below to whatever you named your template (without the "custom_"):

Options All -Indexes
Options +FollowSymlinks
RewriteEngine on

RewriteRule ^membermap.php$ misc.php?do=page&template=membermap$1 [L]

Mine is called custom_membermap yet the shorter url will not work. I copied exactually as you have in your inital post. Any ideas? The longer verison work though, thank you.

Some web hosts may not allow you to create an .htaccess with rewrite rules (they may not even have mod_rewrite installed). I suggest you ask your host if they support it.
