Nice idea! However, correct me if I am wrong, but that Maps JavaScript API key comes with a bill each month depending on how many views, and on a high traffic site that could get pretty expensive, correct?

Good Morning @AndyB does this work with 2.1?

While it is possible that you could get a bill it would require a huge amount of usage. Google provides the first $200 a month of map api usage for free.

I would like to give a big thank you to @AndyB.

We were using another mapping product with many issues. The developer was unresponsive.

I reached out to Andy with a few requests which he quickly made and his map is fully meeting our needs at a lower cost.

Is there a way for a user to deny his location in the map? Is there also a way to manually change his location in the map?

Regards

This would be good from a GDPR perspective too.

I notice that it's calculating coordinates for Banned users. Can we filter these out somehow?

This looks good, I'd need to give members the option to remove themselves and would like to choose which user-groups display on the map. Can it do that? Cheers

Is it possible that each user set his own position/city on the map or is this just geolocating from the ip adress?

 

[CSM]

Andy, thank you for great work on extending XenForo functionality.
Is it possible to have a link from the user profile that would show that user on Members map?

Browsing for users on a map is entertaining, but sometimes you want to see user location on a map straight from user post/profile.

 

[Ludachris]

Do members have the option to not be on the map for privacy reasons? Are admins able to only display the map to logged in members, or even certain usergroups?

 

[Ludachris]

What would be the URL for the map, for those of us who don't have the Members tab in the top navbar?
