Where are the Canaliens?

[Kathryn41 3,205]

Ok, I have the google account set up, but when I press the edit button all it allows me to do is change the name of the map. It doesn't allow me to add anything to place my location on the map. Am I missing something? Where do I find 'markers'?

Figured it out - had to refresh the page and then the markers options showed up right on the map itself to the right of the direction keys

I retract my previous post..... it was just taking forever and a day to load

After you press edit, the markers are beside the zoom thing on the map.

Took me a minute to find them too.

I updated my info! Added a little blurb about where I live. You have to zoom in to street view to see what I'm talking about, though. lol

[The_Dude 1,142]

LoL Dan & Ali, it says you live at the West Edmonton Mall. I know that place is huge, but really?

That's cool, Krikit!

Ok, located my marker on the nature trails that run around our community near the community center:)

Hey Kathryn...with Krikit's permission, would you mind substituting the link in the initial post with the pertinent link that we're all using now?

[Kathryn41 3,205]

I am not sure what you are asking, Wyatt's Torch. I used the link in Krikit's post to access the map. What else do I need to do?

[Sam and Ben 2]

The link she posted in the body of her post (not the sig) was for the original map we all tried out. That page didn't like any of us, so we switched to GoogleMaps.

[Kathryn41 3,205]

I am on Googlemaps. I am confused. I used the link from her very last post. It shows everyone on the map. Am I not showing up for you? I get exactly the same map and same information when I click on the link in your post.

Yeah. I'm just thinking that if people come in who haven't visited today and followed this thread, they might go and put their info on the QuickMaps one that was Krikit's initial attempt, rather than on the site Sam provided (and everyone is using now).

It's no biggie.

I'll update it, Wyatt. Good point.

P.S. Mods can't edit any posts but their own.

[Wyatt's Torch 45]

Oh geez.

Krikit...I apologize. I completely forgot that YOU yourself are a mod.

[Kathryn41 3,205]

I am still confused, though. It sounds like for you I am not using the same map, yet for me I am. It is the one that keeps getting updated every few minutes. It is the same one I access through the link on your post and on Krikit's post. It is not the QuickMap but the regular page. I guess I don't know what you are asking me to do.

Ah, ok, I understand now. You were asking me as a mod to update the link in Krikit's post - not referencing anything in my posts. Sorry for the confusion - I didn't get that until I read Krikit's response. Yes, she is the only one who can edit her posts.

Don't worry Kathryn...just ignore me! I think my coffee cup must have been too close to the cleaning solvents this morning...
