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.

I'd like to see an option, where users can add some misc information when they tag themselves on the map.

Like maybe email address, phone number, real name, etc.

Several members of my forum have mentioned they'd like to be able to see who is located in certain areas, and a quick way to contact them or view more information about the user.

The membermap is a good start, as far as the locations of members, but being able to append misc additional information here would be really awesome!

What do you think?

Also, will this mod work on vb 4.1.12?

There is no support for 4.1.x at this time

Additional information will be able to be added via custom profile fields once I get around to adding it in.

When I go to the Settings it doesn't show the selection box to add usergroups like in the picture in the product description above?

[meissenation]

Anyone? Half of my members are able to access and other half cannot.

Double check your usergroup settings for the ones unable to view it mate

That's my problem, though - I don't HAVE usergroup permissions because it's not showing the selection box. Upon further investigation it appears that anyone in the default "Registered Users" "Moderators" or "Administrators" groups can access the map OK, but anyone who has a custom group as their primary group is unable to access.

Oye, sorry - I forgot to click installed. I clicked installed now can I get any help?
