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.

That'll be very annoying as every time you pan over the map with your mouse, it will open random popups. More annoying is if the marker you actually want is right behind another you just accidentally opened by moving your mouse over it.

Oh aye, so it does LOL. Have reuploaded with correct number now. Can assure you it is 1.0.2 lol

hint hint....
Showing distance to the next 10 users close to you....

Thats a possibility for a future version, however would not nessecarily be accurate without a large amount of queries to the google api. The reason I say this is if you do this on a straight line basis I can calculate purely based on the coordinates, however if you want real distance (ie driving) would have to get the distance by road by routing.
