RCTalk Members Map Update

In the past a member or team of members has maintained an off-site Google Map of users locations. Members come and go and people lose interest in maintaining the map. Well today, we no longer have to worry about that.

Introducing the new RCTalk Members Map - https://www.rctalk.com/forum/rctalk-membermap/

This members map is hosted right here on RCTalk and uses your existing Location field as its source. Don't want your location listed on the members map, no worry - by default all users location are set to NOT show on the map.

So if you want your location to show up on the RCTalk Members Map you MUST opt-in. To opt-in is easy, simply go to your account details - https://www.rctalk.com/forum/account/account-details and check "Show me on the membermap".

The members map will ONLY show users who have opted into the map AND has been active on the site in the last 8 months. Meaning only active users will be shown on the map and not cluttered with users who no longer visit the site. Only registered users can view the members map.

To find the user map you can use the link above or also find it listed under the "Members" menu drop down:

So what are you waiting for? Update your account details with your location and opt-in now!

Great new feature! Love the updated simplification. Thanks @WoodiE

Cool. It does work. Already pinned me. Thanks Woodie!

Nice update

Awesome! The only thing I see is once you open a pin, I assume there is an X button here, because clicking here closes the pin. But it's invisible. But a very minor issue to a great addition!

Love it!!!

This looks like a conflict between the add-on and the dark style. But I'm having trouble finding a way to fix it right away - I'm still looking!

It's not the most elegant fix in the whole world, but it's viewable now in both light and dark styles.

That looks fine. Maybe look for the bg color of the window and set it to the same blue. Can you send me the code? I can take a look at it. Or a link to the addon if it's a free one.
