Community - Member map not working (impossible to add location)

[dimag0g]

I was trying to locate pandora owners around me, and discovered I could not add myself on the map. Regardless of the browser, OS, and the address string I enter, adding my location always fails and suggests to try again later.

Addresses I tried:

Strasbourg

Strasbourg, France

48.57397,7.75096

Any suggestions?

hmmm, neither can i do it, issue at maps? (the popup says issue at google maps)

curious how the most users according to map is in Germany.

I think Ed populated them a while ago?  Don't think the numbers are accurate as shown now though.  I believe the number should be higher at least in the US.

No people added themselves to the map, I know I added myself to the map a long while ago.

That map is probably broken since ages. 

It is the same software we use in the bodhi forum and we have that broken since more than a year.

Hmmm, probably Google changed their API.

Just to confirm myself:

hallo
it seems that i cant enter a location in the google map.

Jup more than a year. Ohhh yes i am so good at guessing. 

Isnt it funny/sad that noone noticed before?

I actually noticed a long time ago and I thought I'd posted about it somewhere here.

Almost forgot that map site, was a nice feature. Would be cool to have it working again and better linked. Some people may not know all Pandora/Pyra releatad feature sites like the very nice Pandora-Stalker for example.

In my effort to rid the world of unfree services for an open project i added an openstreetmap to the wiki

So how does one add their location on this? I see no options to do so even in edit mode.

Let's just stick with Google Maps. Open Map looks ugly

I haven't tried, but http://semantic-mediawiki.org/wiki/Maps_examples/Google_Maps_map_with_multiple_points suggests just adding additional coordinates separated by a semicolon.

I rather like the style of OSM, and the above seems to work (I'm the point in a railway shed in Cambridge)

I like the idea of openstreetmaps too. But this one does not load for me. 

Is OSM using that much more traffic compared to google?

The issue is currently finding out how to add an image to the onclick text.
