Is there a way to have a world map with members locations? You could mouse over a pin and have a link to the members blog pop up?

This would make is easier to connect with local members (for tripawds pawtieslaugh) You could also add vets, PT facilities etc. in different color pins. Just a thought. Maybe its too complicated.

Easier said than done! But funny you should mention it... we've actually been in touch with some developers about making a plugin to simplify the process. For now it would require manually gathering everyone's location data and editing a Google Map.

Until then, if anyone wants to do this, please feel free to go for it and send us the embed code!

I think that would be great to have a map of our locations. I think I will put a map of my location in my blog. That is if I can figure out how to do it.

If you save a googlemap at the appropriate size to fit your sidebar, you *may* be able to embed it in a text widget, though you will most likely be unable to embed it in a page, for security reasons.

That's great! Other bloggers might consider doing the same... just make sure the page link is functional! winker

Daisy's original request, however – which we're still investigating – is to have a common map of all user locations. An interim solution until we figure that out may be a public googlemap where members can add their location. Hmmmm...

That just might work. Hope we can find something easy to use.

If there is enough interest from others here, we'll create a public map that everyone can update. Updating the map would require having a Google account, and the downside may be that ANYONE with an account would be able to edit the map.
