Member World Map Hack Request

[Trigunflame]

I have a world-wide version, I have yet to release. Possibly in the future.

[FightRice.com]

Let me know when you decide to release, I wanna be the first to download it.

Has anyone done anything for this yet? the IPB version is very nice looking.

Hows this guys

http://www.tech-unity.com/index.php?page=guestmap

Click the link in the center to create your own guestmap.

Take the code they give you, create a new template, call it MAP and paste the code in.

The take your index.php rename it to map.php or whatever, then

Search that file for

eval('print_output("' . fetch_template('FORUMHOME') . '");');

and replace it with

eval('print_output("' . fetch_template('MAP') . '");');

As you can see I used the vbAdvanced, but you dont need to.

Use the directions above and you are good to go.

Link? I looked around your site real quick and did not see a link to it.

That and I made a small / er OK, a big goof

Copy your FORUMHOME Template, paste it into the new Map template

Then in the new MAP template find

<!-- main -->

<!-- /main -->

and replace everything in between it with the code they gave you.

My apologies, I was obviously sleep deprived when I posted last night.

ah.. i see what the problem was..

when you click on the 'get code' button on their site, it seems to just give you code for buttons that link to your map. once i went to my map from there, i was able to 'view source' and get the <iframe> code for the actual map.

i've added it as a block in my vBPortal. thanks again!

I haven't played with the version of vbPortal, but...

On that page, is there a way to remove the right side blocks, because it is cutting off some of the map.

Glad you got it working though, Glad I could help

wouldn't it be better to link this to the ip of the member then to the zip-code?

at least I would prefere

will add tonight a link to another type of worldmap and source code
