MotoVloggers Map of the World - next generation

[LandyVlad]

Ta. I meant the latter.

Even though the extension link was sent out, something has gone terribly wrong with the 1 month grace time, so several of the markers have already disappeared from the map. As the setup is in the way that I would not keep the data, I can not recreate the points myself. I am trying to figure out what went wrong, because during testing phase the function seemed to work as intended.
I apologize for the inconvenience.
Who finds their link did not work and marker is missing, can simply add themselves again, just as the first time.

Update: I believe I have located the issue. Code was working as intended, but I had messed up the cronjob, essentially launching multiple instances of the expiration check, which in turn sped up the "grace period" of 1 month in to essentially a minute.

I was already on the map, do I still need to register? Thanks Chris

I see your pin is up on the map and has not expired yet. I believe you should get the extension link in a month or two, depending of the exact time you registered.

Thanks, I just registered with OpenStreetMap as Bikervation but could not find the Motovloggers map, also I cant find out how to login to the map from the link you posted at the beginning of your thread?

There is no log in functionality. If you need something to be changed with your entry you can send me a pm.
I figured most of us will not change our channel names and links that much and I did not want to make it all too complex.

“What protects your head (not bandana)?” - tried answers from ‘helmet’, ‘motorcycle helmet’, ‘lid’, ‘common sense’… nothing seems to work.

I had some difficulty with that one too. I honestly can't remember what the answer was that finally went through.

@Moose M Could it be you had some spaces or something in there? both lid and helmet are accepted answers to that question.

Persistence seems to be the key. Tried again (and again). Finally worked.

I think I may just have figured out what caused your difficulties. Could it be you tried using uppercase letters in the field? I discovered that my comparison statement was case sensitive (not intentionally). I have mended that now. Hopefully no one else will experience such difficulties.

There doesn’t seem to be many people on there? ‍

Unfortunately it seems to be slow, compared to the old days.

I wonder if many folks either skip or do not know about it? Maybe the topic needs to be made more prominent somehow?

 

[Theodor]

Considering the overall activity level, in the forum, at this time, I would not be too worried.

Cool. I know you put a lot of work in the update.

Thanks for the report!
Should be working now. It was not your browser issue.
