Casper Posted March 17, 2016 Report Share Posted March 17, 2016 https://ohioriders.net/index.php?/membermap/ It's in the menu under "Community". Add your location, as detailed as you wish, by clicking the "Add Location" button just above the map on the right side. For instance, I simply put "Pickerington, Ohio" as my location. Change your location by clicking the "My Location" button. I will slowly be back-filling locations for those who don't set it with coordinates based on zip code only. You can delete your marker if you want. I've updated locations for all members who hadn't already set theirs and have more than 10 posts by mapping their zip to GPS coordinates. You can remove/modify your location at any time. I made it a ton easier for everyone. Now just update the zip code in your profile to change your location. Don't want your location shown on the map? Just delete the zip code from your profile. Easy peasy. You may notice a few non-member locations on the map already. Those are Jimbo's and Fontana Village. The idea here is that we'll add popular destinations to the map as time goes on. The ability for anyone to add a popular destination is coming shortly. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bad324 Posted March 17, 2016 Report Share Posted March 17, 2016 this is what I get when I click update location. It doesn't really matter, was just asking questions to help in the long run Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Something was broke and you apparently accidentally fixed it! Thanks Casper!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Casper Posted March 17, 2016 Author Report Share Posted March 17, 2016 I backfilled the location (based on zip code only) for anyone who hadn't set their location already and has more than 10 posts. Pretty amazing to see on a map. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Casper Posted March 17, 2016 Author Report Share Posted March 17, 2016 Updated instructions in the first post. Made it a lot easier for everyone. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
2talltim Posted March 17, 2016 Report Share Posted March 17, 2016 Only way I see that as being confusing to someone is if at some time down the road someone thinks the point on the map is a members actual house and tries to use it as a tool to get there. Like where is says I'm at is actully 4 miles from my house. Not a big deal to me but I just see someone thinking that way. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Casper Posted March 17, 2016 Author Report Share Posted March 17, 2016 True. Didn't think of that. I'll change it so you can fine tune the location if you want. I would imagine most won't want their exact location though. I was thinking more of a visual "who is around me" thing. Good point though.
