XF 2.2 Changing location map URL?

[Martin Wynne]

By default, clicking on a member's Location opens Google Maps.

I want to change that to use OpenStreetMap: https://www.openstreetmap.org

I have changed the URL at line 236 in src/XF/Pub/Controller/Misc.php without success. It continues to use Google Maps every time.

Am I changing the wrong line, is it set somewhere else? Or has it been cached somewhere and needs to be rebuilt?

Thanks for any help.

cheers,

Martin.

I am asking in this old thread about the Open Street Map and hope for an answer.
What is the exact Location information URL to use, instead of the original Google.Maps URL?

Hi Ronny,

The URL is:

https://www.openstreetmap.org/search?query={location}

It's working fine here.

cheers,

Martin.

Thank you very much for the quick help.
It worked perfectly
Do you have a suggestion that also applies to the Open Railway Map?

Hi Ronny,

Sorry, I can't find a way to do that at present. There is an unresolved question about it at:

https://help.openstreetmap.org/questions/46638/openrailwaymap-search-query-url

You might want to continue that discussion or ask again on there.

cheers,

Martin.

I am satisfied with your solution, and I thank you for your help.

I really appreciate that someone who is a novice xenforo gets such help.
I'll look into the recommended thread a little later today.
