Try as I may, I can't get a new location (mine) to post on the map. It always ends up only showing 3 Washington locations and none added new.
Please help - What am I missing in instructions? Basic location is Tenino, Wa. which I can find on the map but "adding" doesn't keep it when I go out and back in.

Did you get the popup to add a new location to the map?

Either right click or double tap when youre on the map

Tried Chrome and Edge. Neither work. Not using ad or popup blocker. Double click zooms in and right click does nothing in both browsers. When I hold left button for a few seconds the popup appears but when filled in and clicked on Save Marker, nothing happens.

Same problem for me. I also tried Safari

Same for me. I can get the popup on the screen for a marker by holding the right button but the marker won't save.

Same problem here. Glad to know it is not just my web browser or Linux.

Innnnterrresting?? :sour: You (& others) have seemingly done the right things, but there's obviously no go?!? :gaah: Yet we've had another member successfull add their location today - after this thread was initially started?!? :banghead:

Maybe you're just facing the wrong way, possibly cos you're on the wrong side of the country?!? :dontknow: :rolleyes:

Maybe the wrong continent or hemisphere? ;)

Double tap is for a phone, i didnt say double click, double click on a computer is for zoom.

Right click on a computer pops up the add marker window.

You shouldnt have to hold the right click, just one right click pops up the window.

I tested the system on safari in linux & windows, chrome, ff, they all worked at that time.

A popup blocker shouldnt stop that window either.

Is there any error when you click & try to save?

No error. Just doesn't do anything

Since the single click did nothing, I tried double click (and every other combo of left, right, single, double, click&hold, etc.. No errors when box comes on and attempt to save after filling in info. Nothing happens, box remains in view and no marker is saved.

I tested on my iphone mini, safari & chrome no longer work.

I do not have an ipad or apple computer to test with.

To the posters with issues, please list what phone/computer/OS/browser youre normally using.

So I am pretty much newbie to the workings of this site. I thought the "map" was for members to mark their location. After reading THIS thread I clicked on the map and was able to put a marker on it with my screen name and location - but - the marker itself is about 150 miles from my actual location. I can't make the marker move to my actual location by editing the info or dragging it and it says I do not have permission to delete it.
Evidently with my input of the marker it put a thread out here that showed I had input the marker.
That thread is called Pooch, Kerrville TX.
Then...I get a sarcastic response that indicated it was somewhat useless for me to have input the marker since I did not have any tools, etc to provide.
I apologized for doing so in that thread and apologize for doing so in this thread.
Moderators, please just delete the marker and be done with it. Thanks.

Sorry, I tried to avoid sounding sarcastic or judgmental. Ironically I was just about decided to add my own marker when your thread appeared.

I'm sorry Pooch, as I replied in your Map Marker thread, that sarcastic post (since removed) was completely uncalled for & highly inappropriate! :sour: . The Member Map IS intended as a 'Member Map', the extra info is just there for those people/instances where a member is in a position to & might be able to offer more in the way of tools, accom, workshop etc - but at its simplest, the map is really intended just to let others know where you are! :thumbup:

Btw, it probably pays to be juust a little vague in telling the World via the Internet & all its readers/users/abusers EXACTLY where you are located for a whole shed load of perfectly valid reasons; but I hafta agree, 150 miles is probably a bit too vague! I don't know exactly how to resolve/move your marker, but I'll pass it on & see what we can do to fix it! ;)

Is this being fixed? I tried again today. Right click does nothing.

I've got a marker on the map (put it there a long time ago) that I've changed to "Mistake" because it's in the wrong place, should be up by Seaweed but I can't move it or delete it.
