    Map integration

    Copied from my post on cs.org - Alex Crome suggested I post here.

    I think it'd be great if we could add a few more fields for "location", such as town/city, state/county and country (as a drop down list) and integrate CS with a mapping tool like Google Maps or Live maps.

    It'd be really interesting for the admins to see on a map where the users are from. Perhaps we could have a link to a google map in each users profile and plot group users to maps. Can you tell I love plotting things on maps??:D

     

    P.S. Your smilies don't apepar to be working, or have been removed...

    That's interesting Nick ! What will the VE control do ? Show the users home or actual location (taken from a Reperion database for instance :)  ?

    It will use the location field to try and locate the user's location, if the control is placed in the user's profile page and everything is set.  Well that is what I'm hoping it will do anyhow.
