Easy to install, easy to use.
The best module map for JomSocial!
Great Job team!
Downloaded, installed, enabled module and setup City, Country, State and Google API Key...and it displayed all Avatar perfectly.
Good job...
The only thing I could suggest is adding searchable options in the map.
dear sir, we offer all our support, we try to solve all problems, although in some cases do not depend on our module(for free).
The module also is easy to configure.
1. It does not display members consistently.
2. The size of the avatars makes it difficult to see members.
3. Some members don't show up at all.
Waiting for a fix. Do not recommend at this time.
As announced, we completed the new version 2.0 of JomSocial Member Map introducing some new options in the preferences of the module .
Now you can choose between three different sizes of the marker with the avatar (small, medium, large) or choose also the classic markers of google .
Another important upgrade improve the loading of all the markers by applying a delay between requests for geocoding.
This allows Google to load all the requests properly.
More...
To further imposes restrictions of google see the official page:

+ displays sometimes the wrong profile instead of the good one.
Wrote to the developper for a refund and I got this answer :
"It's strange, we have encountered this problem with maps at least 100 users.
Unfortunately google has a max limit of geocoding requests per day and We are working to resolve the problem to you soon.
Don't worry about releasing an update soon, and we'll keep you informed."
So I don't recommend this module... at 49,90 € !
We noticed that sites with many users, Google does not process all information and it is necessary to apply a delay between the requests.
We have already found a solution for this problem and will release
a new version in this month with more news
and integration with 3d Party Products.
Will notify you when completed. Please, stay tuned.
It does what they say and they offer support when you need it!
Keep up the good work!

I bought the Pro-Version ... I nearly woldn´t have, because of the lots of bad ratings. But in the actual version I can´t confirm them.
To start with the good things:
The Module (it´s a module, not a component!) works right "out of the box", really quick and good. I instantly got a Google-API-Key, put it in and ... woow! The Hover-Bubble for the Users looks really good, it has "Message"- and "Add-as-Friend"-Buttons beside the avatar ... very nice.
I quickly found two little bugs
- The "Auto-Center" does not work, so you should put your own latitude/longitude in the settings (easy)
- The "Latidude" and the "Longitude"-Fields are switched. So if you feel you can´t "center" the map, just try to switch the values. ;-)
I "only" gave the Module four stars because of some "advanced problems" in the map. This is an easy logic, but I would not call it "bugs", I personally would call it "missing features" and I hope for improvements in the next version.
-> The pulled Data only affects Country, State and Town. So you can´t use the Street for publishing the users on the Map.
That results in lots of users "on the same position" of the map. Whenever somebody is living "in the same city", he will be shown on exactly the same position like all other users of that city.
Unfortunately, they don´t "overlap". There is no chance to find somebody "behind". To be clear: You only see the user "on the top", but you don´t see all the users "behind" and you also can´t click them.
In my case for example, I got about 50 Users in Cologne, Germany. All 50 Markers are "stacked", but I can´t see any other as "the top one" and I also can´t click any other as "the top one".
Then, in the middle of germany I have one position with hundreds of users (on just one stack): All users, that did only put "Germany" in theire profile. They are all placed "in the middle of the country". Bad Idea ... this obviously is a wrong position for them.
My personal suggestions are:
- Differ the Marker for "multiple Users" and create a way to click on the users "behind". A good thing would be a "hover-field" which shows all users.
- Add the ability for more precise positioning. At least the street should be able to be set in the maps.
- Set an option for "hide inacurate positions". I would like to hide all users that have the field "city" empty. I would love the options "Hide Users with empty city" and "hide users with empty street".
Well ... this is a 50-Euro-Module, so it´s not the cheapest one. On the other side ... it works good. Having the three Features above solved I would give 5 Stars, that´s great. But on the other side ... the "overlapping"-Problem is a real big problems in the usability, the map doesn´t look as full as the user-database is ... this definitely should get solved.
In the moment you have to descide for yourself. When the trhee above problems are solved I would say "Buy it, it´s great". ;-)
All the best, Julian!
PS: Yes, an official Support-Request is comming. I just wanted to first post it here. ;-)
We have recently purchased your Addon. Yet we can not download it; nor can we get any contact information.
We would love to receive contact from the developers.
How can you say such things now when you're already using on your site on your home page?
It is clearly visible on your site hairengine.com.
Some time ago you wrote it just to try to get a free upgrade of your free subscription to get the new version, saying that you had not downloaded.
We do not tolerate rip-off. We work !
