Resolved Missing Member on map

  • Guest, we will be conducting site maintenance this week and some downtime is expected. At this time Rally Point and the Member Map will also become an app-only feature for long-term security and stability. A few days after this maintenance, a major upgrade revision to the forum site will occur.

Hello,

I have selected the “yes” show my location on the map, prompted the “members” filter in the map header and I am not showing up . My city and state are listed in my profile. Any ideas?

Probably need to request support to get this working for you, at least that is the way it used to be. If you search around the forums you will see that you are not the first person to face this issue.

Isn’t this section in the forums for support on issues?

Looks like it is the support section but I had to specifically request support to show up on the map. That was a long time ago and I am just going by hazy memory ;) If you don’t enter your Lat/Lon you will be placed at the same “random” spot in your town as others. For my town there are a bunch of folks clustered around the local grocery store.

@Jim SoG, @Kent R - do you have any wisdom to offer?

There are no other members in my town......no members within 30-40-50 miles of my town

I THINK IT HAS BEEN SOLVED...................................I just was looking for another member on the map and when I opened it up, my dot was there, right where it should be. How strange is that? Not in the ritzy neighborhood today, today I am standing at the bank......LOL

Great, just remember your location is not near your actual address only in the vicinity for security reasons.
