[mXm] BalzOnYer4Head Posted October 19, 2010 Report Share Posted October 19, 2010 I had an idea for the member map. What if we could assign a color to each member, (randomly) and than that individual cold also mark other places he has been all over the world? Could be a great ice breaker for new members whilst we run a quasi, map based, and not very accurate background check whem members sign up! Yes, no? Feasable?

[mXm] kotaco Posted October 19, 2010 Author Report Share Posted October 19, 2010 Feasable but complicated. Right now it's setup with 3 different markers. Blue - Your Pin Red - Registered Members Green - Your Friends To do what you want it would require recoding the entire application, and I just borrowed it so I'm not familiar with the coding of it.

The Google Maps API is pretty easy to customize with icons. It's been about 6-8 months since I was developing Maps API stuff but I know there are some relatively easy ways of implementing specific user colour-coded pins. A quick read through the Maps API Documentation shows it. Try here - custom icons and marker manager Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
[mXm] kotaco Posted October 19, 2010 Author Report Share Posted October 19, 2010 I was actually looking into using GeoIP to automatically plot markers for users and guests, but once gain coding is not my strong point. Thats more in Andys realm Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But that would require me switching over to a different forum software anyhow, which isn't going to happen :P Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
