Default Your location on a map

Looks like the old pinnable map has gone walkies, I've created a new map for the org here: https://www.zeemaps.com/map?group=1203803

To add your location it is best done using a general area rather than your post code to avoid advertising where your bike is stored! I entered Norwich, UK rather than my street for example.

The basic steps to add yourself on the map are:

* Click 'Additions' on the tool bar and select 'Add Marker - Simple' or 'Add Marker - Detailed', your choice
* Enter your forum user name/nickname (and your real forename as well would be good e.g. Kaivalagi aka Mark)
* Marker type RED should be selected by default
* Click the submit button

I've posted in the regional section for now, if there's an uptake I'll post a new thread for more members if they don't see this one

I will probably repost in a general thread soon, you can always delete /recreate pins anyway

I clicked on this out of interest and it took me to my current location, it would work for the whole forum and not only EAR.

It would be e worth making this a general thing or even asking the admins to make it part of the Forum.

Yes it will work for everyone, it centers on your estimated location...it's the reason it didn't give it a name relating to the EAR

I just started it here as we used an old one before it and that stopped working, I just posted it here for now as that's where it was being used before

Making it part of the forum might mean a pro account so it can be embedded, not sure, but we can always have a stickied thread somewhere central within the forum, with the basic instructions from this first post for all

We have a few pins on there already so it will give others the idea nicely

Where would you like me to create a new thread for all, that can be stickied?

I can also share admin rights to other email addresses, so we can have some proper admin from the site moderators maybe?

I concur

@Luckypants, I've posted a "Pin Your Location!" thread detailing the zeemap and it's use in Idle Banter, could you sticky it for all to see going forwards?
