I think that's dependent on how the countries themselves spell it. Notice how Russia is in Russian, and isn't poland labeled Polska?

It's all in the reflexes.
I'd love to add this to my guild site, I'm just not getting it?

I was looking at the link you provided, and even went to google maps. Had no clue how to even put myself on a map or even how to put it on the site???

--
I went ahead and did this for you, but all you needed to do was go to Admin > Basic Menu Administration and check the box for "Guild Map."

You should see it on your menu now.

hey thanks

Ok. So if you have more than one guild member in the same location it only shows 1 of them. It seems to take them alphabetically.

Is there anything you can do to show it as a list of all of them?

I'm going to be adding slight modifiers for people in the same lat/long, so that it'll show people in the same place. Right now, the answer is to provide a more exact answer (like, say you lived at "730 W Cherry Lane", try entering "700 W Cherry Lane").

Only one problem. My wife and I both play of course that would only be useful for idiots that don't know where married and in the same guild. But still would be nice to see Shamrocker and Saudorun at the same location.

I noticed all the cool add on's and improvments to the site...but still the goggle map only show's one person living in an area that at least 6 ppl live at...is this going to be fixed soon? Its been awhile now...

--
Hmm..Idefinitely thought I fixed that bug. I know I remember adding a randomization in the process. I just wonder if maybe I didn't deploy it live or something.

I can no longer see the link that allows us to post locations. Has there been any changes that would affect this?

There's no special location for that. Just click on "Edit Account" and there you can set your location.

I apologize for the necro bump but I actually have something constructive to add on this thread. Someone in my guild pointed out that there is actually the map function so most people put in their locations. We were having the issue of markers showing up too. I "borrowed" the code you were using to show the map and updated your showaddress() function to the following and got around any latency/client issues associated with the .getLatLng() call:


function showAddress(address,html) {
geocoder.getLatLng(
address,
function(point) {
if (!point) {
showAddress(address,html)
} else {
var marker = createMarker(point,html);
map.addOverlay(marker);
}
}
);

All markers showed up with that change. Would it be possible to get something like this rolled into a future release? Might want to add some logic to only do a recursion or two then exit but hey...i'm not getting paid for this.
Thanks for the heads up. I'll have a gander and see what comes up.

I see under Menu Administration where I can select the minimum rank that can view the Guild Map. I'd also like the ability to filter which ranks are shown on the map, that is I'd like to show the members but not the guests. Is there some way to do this currently that I'm missing, or is this a feature that could be added eventually?

Thanks!
doing a necro post as well

but it appears some of the older issues, have reappeared ...

just set up a new WAR guild.. and am having difficulties getting some members to show up at all (myself included)

this may be same users in same location thing.. as I and one other have only put in Seattle, WA .. with no street address

another user has location set. but not displaying

and it seems that the number of "pins" varies when viewing the map

not sure if any of this was tied to the forums revamp.. but *shrug* one never knows
