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.

Ah, thanks so much was driving me crazy!

Now I can move on to my other questions...

Does this plugin support something to auto detect ip's was just wondering if there could be an option to show users from where they logged in from? Not sure where this project is headed other then a user location dart board...

User location dartboard!! I wish you'd said that before I released the mod, I would have called it that LOL.

There are no plans for geolocating users no. Once the current version is fully stable for everyone then I will put down all plans for V1.1, however here are a few ideas we have floating around:

• Pin other locations
• Link to users pin within postbit
• Admin selectable custom profile fields in popup

All three of those options would be Class

• Pin other locations
• Link to users pin within postbit
• Admin selectable custom profile fields in popup

Hi, its a great mode, I've installed on 4.1.10, and cannot fin a link, however i can access to it manually by http://www.urdushanas.com/dcMembermap.php, how to add it in the nav. bar?

[CoZmicShReddeR]

I just remember years ago we had this for PHPNuke and it would also show if the user was online as well... I guess that also is under the Geo location thing but it didn't require a geo Apache module as far as I know...

Are there plans for choosing a theme?
I really need to change the user block would like to have the background in black instead of white...

Figured since the ideas were flying...

I run a travel website and I think adding the option of having Personal Maps for each member would be a great option. This would allow them to mark off all their past travel destinations. Just a thought.

beta 2 now installed - avatar but much better as using the forum scheme.

I have an idea for a mod that would be awesome for our site but no idea how to go about it - fo you do stuff for cash? It is basically the map stuff but also allowing members to post routes which it will show from GPX gps files.

We would pay for this!!
