Hey Caliman! Yea, I'm hyped about it too. Ever since I saw it, I've wanted this hack -- and what, with all the people talking about it in other threads, figured this one just didn't work for 3.0.7 It was when I saw bitg's post that I realized it still might work.

Here's how I got it working on my 3.0.7 board:

1) Download the original hack and all it's files. All of it's still good, still works, HOWEVER

2) In the zip install instructions, where it tell you to make a new user profile field, use bitg's instuctions for 3.0.x here: https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showpost....7&postcount=56

3) It will work, as is. However, I also wanted the php page (which includes headers and footers, to maintain a consistent look with my site). To do that, I used Erwin's instructions here, BUT ONLY FOR THE TEMPLATE: https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showpost....4&postcount=45

4) For the actual usermap.php file, you'll have to tweak the one suggested by Erwin. When vB changed to 3.0.7 they changed some of the phrases. usermap.php should now read:

<?php
error_reporting(7);

require('./global.php');
if (!$bbuserinfo[userid]) {
  print_no_permission();
 }
	eval("print_output(\"".fetch_template("usermap")."\");");
?>

Save that as "usermap.php" and upload it to the forum's root folder (e.g. "http://mysite.com/forum/" )

Bingo! Should work like a charm.

A couple of notes: the usermap.php file I indicate above, prevents un-registered Members from viewing the map. To allow them, delete

if (!$bbuserinfo[userid]) {
  print_no_permission();
 }

from usermap.php above, before uploading it to your forum's root folder.

The hack saves Member's names, creating a hyperlink from their pin to their user profile.

Very cool.

Oh... unregistered visitors can't see my Map (I've used the unchanged one I presented above), but you should be able to see the .html version. It doesn't include the headers and footers that my php version will include.

I'll leave it up for a few days for those who'd like to see this on a 3.0.7 board: http://totallifesuccess.com/forum/usermap.html
