Major Additions - DamnComp - MemberMap

ABOUT
After moving over from xenforo the one thing I was missing on my forum was a membermap. This is a map where your users can pin their location so that others can see where people are. This modification does just this.


FEATURES
Admin Settings:

Enable Membermap - Globally switches membermap and associated tabs off
Allowed Usergroups - Which usergroups can see the membermap
Can Edit - Which usergroups can add/edit markers on the map



User Functions

Add/Edit marker by drag drop on map
Add/Edit marker by searching for location by text
Online users show different colour
Popup bubble on markers with avatar and profile link
Live user search

INSTALL

Upload all files in the upload folder to your forum directory leaving their structure intact, then import the product file. If you are using a custom skin, please ensure you also add the dcmembermap image folder to your own misc directory within images

PLEASE NOTE THIS MODIFICATION IS IN BETA STAGE. SUPPORT WILL BE GIVEN ONLY TO THOSE WHO SPECIFY INSTALLED.

As above please install the fix xml file from the main thread. I will update the package tonight with this and will also include encoding for the phrases for you.



Please try the fixed xml file on main topic, however Im not sure this is the problem for you unfortunatly. I will take a look at this tonight for you. Please send me a pm with login details for your site in the meantime.

Hi Sonic, if you can register on my site I'll provide you admins.
Thanks,

Great mod but I think I'll wait awhile.
I did test briefly and noticed TABLE_PREFIX missing in the $dc_markercheck query of dcMembermap.php
Adjusting query fixed SQL error.
Awesome work.

EDIT: latest version 1.0.1
Double Edit:
One great feature would be the ability to set a default location and zoom level for the map in the settings.
In my case, I wanted the map to default to a U.S. location so I added my own longitude, latitude, and zoom level to the javascript.
For anyone wishing the same, you can edit the function initMap() in /clientscript/dcMembermap.js to add your own default overview.
google.maps.LatLng(LATITUDE, LONGITUDE), ZOOM_LEVEL
Example:

function initMap() {
    // Parse through the given points and show the map
    mapoverview = [
        new google.maps.LatLng(37.0625, -95.677068),
        4
    ];

I did a little edit to add a Legend... Created icon that are 20px x 20 px

Edited the dcMembermap template Copyright line...

<div class="copyright">
         Image Legend: My location =<img src="/images/misc/dcMembermap/mypointlegend.png" alt="My Point"/>
         ,  Online Member =<img src="/images/misc/dcMembermap/pointonlinelegend.png" alt="Online Member"/>
         ,  Member Location =<img src="/images/misc/dcMembermap/pointlegend.png" alt="Member Location "/>

Cant believe that hasnt been picked up before to be honest. Cheers for that, will rebuild the lot tonight to ensure thats fixed. The default location/zoom level is something planned to be added as an option. Just ensuring there are no issues remaining before we add anything further
