I remember there was an online forum member map, is that still runing? I am also curious about the geographical distribution of B4X users.
My observation is seems we have less Japan and Korea users, maybe totally untrue ...

Surprisingly, yes (or, as @rabbitBUSH would say: ja)

Some time ago there were some postings - couldn't locate them now - talking about a map on which the locations of B4X members could be shown.

I have made space available on my company site and volunteered this as a host for the locator map.

No-one will be more amazed than I if it works out well. If it doesn't it will quietly disappear into the sunset.

Excellent idea.
The country will be enough. Put dots on a map to get an overview.
Erel could display country statistics and display the public page

Please write in your profile the city (or at least the country) where you live.

Now I don't write code anymore, I only read the posts (I also reply very little) and... I'm curious ?

Mine is in there, but...

When I started using B4A I was living in the USA, then I moved to New Zealand & now I live in Australia...

JA it's still there, surprisingly. (Your Afrikaans is improving Mate.)

Only in that members, at the time it went up, did put in stuff, then everyone forgot it's there. There's no sticky link in the forum.

If you PM location details I can edit the file. It wasn't the plan at the outset to go beyond a simple thing - so editing one's location with relocations isn't in it. Incidentally, you could just add in Computersmith64/5/6/7 - it will accept it (and, of course, confuse the heck out of us all).

Once things settle down from fetching my kids from their Madagascar sailing trip, (later today) - and in between loadshedding - I'll have look and check what's what. I just remembered there was some tweak i had to do.

I doubt that's easy - forum registration doesn't capture locations (if I recall correctly) hence the simple mapping I created. Display on a public page these days carries many privacy issues.....?

Mmm apparently most members don't like/want to do that - but - see #7 and #8. I think you did locate yourself there?

Is there a way for members to add their locations themselves? I didn't see that on the map.

I remember having seen the map, and I think I submitted my location, but now I can't see the map (I tested a few days ago and it happened the same)

I get a blank screen (tested with chrome and firefox). The chrome console says:

B4X: 
B4X-map.html:1 Mixed Content: The page at 'https://rabbitbush.co.za/B4X/viewmap/B4X-map.html' was loaded over HTTPS, but requested an insecure script 'http://www.openlayers.org/api/OpenLayers.js'. This request has been blocked; the content must be served over HTTPS.

? thanks for the feedback and the console text - I recall I was getting a problem with Firefox.

I haven't had a chance to check on it.

I also was going to try and convert it to B4J - BUT haven't had the time ....??

Check and see what they have changed on me since I wrote it. ?

Oddly - it loads on the phone - but then doesn't show the label when one taps a location marker. So it seems the Big Browsers have other constraints.
