Google Maps is here
« on: February 17, 2006, 03:37:59 AM »
I have added the Google Maps module to the CMS here. If you look up at the menu bar (HOME HELP SEARCH PROFILE MY MESSAGES CALENDAR MAP MEMBER LOGOUT )

You will see a MAP link, you setup your little pin through your profile. Not the easiest but... it works. Once it's set up "you" will appear on the map when you click MAP above. Also if you notice there are several little pins around you, feel free to click on the pins... it'll give you the members name so you can possible hook up for some dirt destroying fun.

Enjoy  :mrgreen:

That's great Paul!

 Before I blew up my hard drive I had mapped all of the Dunes in the country and some of them in Mexico! I guess need to start over! The points I had mapped for Glamis had Oldsmobile hill and you could even see sand rails on the hill and I had Gecko campgrounds and you can see toy haulers!

Cool Stuff :-D :-D :-D :-D

I do not see the MAP button on the menu bar nor do I see it elsewhere. Hmmm.

No. I checked my layout settings and went through them all. Not quite sure!

Thats the only problem with learning new software  :roll: :-D

I put your pin on there for Raleigh. See if you can click on this and see the map.

I'm going to take you out of the global mod group and see if that clears it up. Click that link again.

I cannot see any way to get to the maps.  I used your link and it said I was not alowed to see the members map.   John

Anyone else NOT see the map link? I know the newbies and the admins can see the link. I'm looking for anyone in the other membergroups to see what permissions you are missing.
