Bugs and things to fix

[Hrollo]

Got a similar warning in firefox.

Chrome just flagged the forum as "Not secure," citing its security certificate being out of date. Is that right? I'm sure the forum is still safe to use, but wanted to make sure you guys know.

Well that's annoying, given the cert's supposed to expire tomorrow and that's when I was going to replace it. I'll take care of it; meantime, yes, the forum's still safe to use. My apologies!

Thanks, hushpiper!

Should be fixed now! My apologies again y'all, the website host was being uncooperative.

-- I got that insecure-site warning from Firefox last night here (EDT USA), and decided instead of overriding it just to go to bed. as I suspected it would be fixed in the morning.

Seems OK now. Thanks for fixing it!

Hi! It’s been a while since someone posted something in this tread...
I’m new to the forum and as I entered I found the map a cool idea!
But what a disappointment when I visited the map and it is blocked because it has a limit of 100 visits  :'( :'( :'(

Is there something to do to bring the map project alive again?

Cheers!

That's sad
I could still access it with my editing link, but indeed the website says:(and that means 100 views ever, not per month/year or anything - making it useless for anything much more than a temporary and not-public use)
"Therefore, as of 1st April 2018, ZeeMaps will limit the number of views on free maps to 100. (Free maps means maps that are not owned by an active paid plan). When you reach 100 views, your map will ‘freeze’ and it can only be unfrozen by upgrading to a paid subscription plan."

Sadly, their cheapest non-free plan costs 20 dollars each month (or 200 a year), which is quite steep in my opinion. The alternative would be making a map on another website (either letting go of old markers and minnions, or importing them: it seems it's possible to export them from Zeemaps, though I didn't have the permissions)

Seems like a good idea. Eik must be able to export the map as an admin

I was not aware of the peril to the Minnion Map - but OTOH the vast majority of those markers are quite out-of-date.  Is this something that can be exported, or perhaps recreated iin a different capacity?

A very quick search yielded https://www.mapcustomizer.com which may be an option (or going to Google directly), but I don't know if it allows anyone to add dots on a map, or only its owner.

Try it, then
https://www.mapcustomizer.com/my-maps/SSSS%20Fandom/edit

Although there seems to be no option of importing data. I'll start searching for more websites like this in a few hours, maybe there is something better

There is something better - uMap. Can be edited by anyone with the link, easy to use, no need to create accounts. And we can import the old markers in csv format (but I agree with wavewright, maybe we don't actually need to import anything, just start anew)

Here's the link:

asks me to log in, so it wouldn't do. (there's a "bulk entry" option, but it seems to require a text format).

Umap could be the perfect solution, I'll look at it some tomorrow

Cry for help from the comments section:

Hi, I'm sorry if this is the wrong place to post this, but I'm trying to register on the fan forum, and keep getting an error message. I looked all over the forum and can't find a way of messaging the admins, so I'm hoping someone here will be able to help.

Thanks for the update. I've replied to Jody and hopefully, we'll be able to get to the bottom of this soon

She should be able to log on now, I fiddled around with a few things. There is something wrong with our spambot blocker.
