What is this AddOn:

Is there any way I can choose to hide users zip codes and location for the other users? So that you could see approximately where a member lives with the flag on the map, but not show theire zip code and cityname.

if someone gets this message:

Warning: file_get_contents(vbmembermap/data/.data) [function.file-get-contents]: failed to open stream: No such file or directory in /vbmembermap.php on line 594

be sure that you have selected a default map

The map of Italy Must be fixed cause Sardegna is missing...also Corsica is present but is a French's Island!

I have included Map images for the entire world.
If someone could give me a hint on WERE there
is a document on how to add the x y coords to
set these up. I'm sharing in hopes that everyone
can get these working.

It's a total of 9 Maps..

Take a look and hopefully we can figure something out.

Each .map-file is configured as the following:

Line: Descr
1-4: coord-range for each card (1: east, 2: west, 3: north, 4: south)
5: Name of the map
6-7: country-ID of the map
8-9: size of the map-graphic
10-11: Distance on map in pixel at each border
12: Name of the map-files
13: Amount of countries on that map
14-15: Name of the country/countries on map and its country-ID (continues if more countries on map)

You can get the range for each card while looking into your geodatas (longitute, lattitute).

Genereal:
Sorry for less support, but we habe been working on vB-Ticker (people can use Tickers in their profile just like tickercentral, babygaga and so on) which we released in german just recently, also we're working on another project for vB.

Jep, the entries won't be lost. But you need to generate the maps in AdminCP after you changed the graphic of the map.

You might try to slightly change the range-coords of the map in the .map-file, for that have a look at my last post in this thread.
