Hello,

I have a lot of members but they are not so eager to update their location every time they are on the site whil they are travelling around.

I was wondering if GEOmunity can have an option to update locations automaticly (and post to activity stream in JS) by IP adress?

The guys at:
www.jomsocial.com/download/addons/modules/geo-coding-suite.html
www.socialables.com/

have this feature but not the nice map integration in jomsocial.
Is this a nice extension listing for the JED or would you prefer custom work for this?

Just tested their product and works like a charm. they only use a separate table to store geo information...
Maybe the 2 products can be combined?

Hello Have you tryed geommunity? Go ahead in your profile here.
Geommunity has better than that , Geommunity has Html5 geocoding, in one click ('Guess' checkbox) the location is guessed in html5 compatible browser (FIrefox, chrome, opera, safari mobile) and using the Yahoo geo IP api for not yet compatible browsers.

But remember, Jomsocial 1.8 now also parse coordinates from direction fields.

Hello,

I have geomunnity up and running on my site on www.skileraar.info (remember )already for a while now.

I know the guess button but that requires an action of my visitors which i don't want.
Is it possible to extend geomunity with IP geo targeting ?

Jasper
p.s: i'll send you an email

No location set!
Are you talking about the about the same feature something like "When user visits the site, map on the site should automatically show say users within 50 miles or 100 miles radius to the visitor"

Is it the same feature? I am looking for this feature as well...
