Maybe I am missing something but I have been trying to use the members map to locate local members and follow them so I can see what is going on with my local areas.

When selecting the member pin a small profile comes up and great it has the follow button.

Then it gets a bit less user friendly as selecting follow takes you to another page where you have to select and then hit follow again.

Once this is done you then have to go back to the member map, re adjust locations again and repeat for every pin you want to follow.

Surely it is much more user friendly and preferred to select follow and that is it so can this functionality be added.

Secondly every time I access the member map its default centre is on the USA (I'm in the UK). This means I have to make the adjustments. There are settings to select the local location so can this functionality be updated in a permanent setting so accessing the member map brings up the map centred on your location pin.

Maybe @Michael can advise.

Thanks guys just want to make things more user friendly.
