We have Point 7 and Point 12 on the map. They need nics.

I used my first name
I took the liberty of editing the title to your pin to show your name. If you don't want it I'll change it back.

When creating the pin, if we don't edit the title of it, it might not show our name next to the pin unless it's clicked on.
It keeps grabbing my location as my name and I can't figure out how to make it stop!
I know what you mean now.

If when placing the pin, it wants to put a location name in the left column instead of your name, then we can put the pin anywhere where it won't name it, edit your nic to it, then move it where you want it.

Thank you for that! I couldn’t see it well on my phone

I'm going to come up with a post for this thread that explains some things about the map. Simple instructions and more. So anyone can comment on any changes, then the OP can paste it to his first post if he wants.

I can't open the map. Maybe it's been pulled?

Last I looked, which was about 30 mins or so ago, you were off from where you originally started, but I figured it was the naming thing and you put yourself there. And Huck...
Does the link work for you?

Well, all I can get is a 404 error. Did y'all get tired of playing with this and delete it?

I think I know why the error and should be fixed. But, had to start a new map :huh:
I'm going to post this here and you guys can let me know if you think it's needed, wanted, or anything else about it.
_______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________

Want to share where you are with the rest of VU? It’s fun, fast, and easy. Or you can ask another member to pin you. It is not location sharing, just a pin on a map.
Members Map

None of your personal data is at risk. First, you’ll need to be able to open Google Maps. If using PC and you use Chrome, Firefox, or any Windows browser, your all set. Or:
-For android Chrome browser and Google Maps are pre-installed.
-For iPhone/iPad you’ll need an app: Here it is from itunes
-Mac users “Install Chrome on Mac”: From Google.com

You’ll need to be signed in to pin, but not to view it so you can sign out afterwards if you wish.
-Once you are able to open the map, I’ve left the editing open so members can pin themselves. Please be careful to not edit or delete anyone elses, or anything in the left side bar, or share the link with non-members. If you need to make changes to your own pin or info within your pin, you can delete that but it’s easier to just edit it.

How to Pin: If you want to drop it precisely, zoom in on the map first, then…
-Click the pin symbol from the top/center tool bar and pin your spot. Then look in the left column to see if it labeled your pin a location. If it did, double click the pin and move it so the name goes away and label your pin, then drag back to the desired location.
-Labeling the pin: Change its title to your nic. In the text box below the title, you can put city, state, country, your nic again, nothing, or whatever you want. The pin’s editing box has other options, like changing pin color or uploading your avatar.

Easy way to find someone is to hover over their nic in the left column.

:giggle:

We can blame me for losing the link. I didn't remember that since I'm hosting the map in my Google Drive cloud, there always need to be a copy of it in there. So when I was cleaning deleting things in there, it went bye bye.:oops:

In your sig ^ you have my typo from earlier when I didn't remove the word are. So it reads like where you are live, instead of where you live. Actually, I'll edit into the instructions that not's not location sharing.

I actually paused a bit with that one...figured you meant like, ;"where you are" LIVE...so I just left it ;)..also why I added the comma...punctuation is everything.....

Slow kids at play or slow, kids at play?
lets eat grandma or lets eat, grandma?
you decide


yeah: and yours is bad, too..your "members only map" link goes to deadness (or at least to the tread)..the "members map" goes to the map

Yeah, amongst everything else, getting that "are" word processed outa there was only one of my errors.

That's why I mentioned it.

I didn't mean anything about you or yours is bad lol. And yep, I've had a few mistakes while figuring out how to create a map and coming up with a solution to your idea. If you think the sig link is bad I'll be the first one to remove it. I thought it would be good for some, those that might need it, to see post 76 before the map. If 76 isn't good, I'll remove that too. It's your thread, you decide.

I was wondering, is there a part of the forum that can only be accessed by logged-in members of the forum? I noticed that in one of @Vape Fan 's posts, he mentioned not telling non-members about this or giving them the link.

None that I, know of. I think all the pages/posts can be viewed without being signed in or a member. Don't remember suggestion to not tell anyone. On the map, there's an option to get a shareable link, or even copying it from this thread. And I did ask that that link not be shared with non-members, even though anyone an get it. The only way to secure it is to not allow "editing by anyone", then members would need to get someone to put them on it.

Not drowning, but I am a she.

I will admit, I'd be ok with Aquaman trying to save me.
