EDIT: 1-4-2023, this was just the pitch for the Member Map, the actual Member Map can be found by clicking here>>>>>
MEMBER MAP
____________________________________________________________________________________________
Any interest in starting a home grown Member Map, kinda just so we don't provide the folks like Pete and Dan any more work to do?
Google has a My Maps features.
I tossed on some vendors and the only 2 repair centers I know of around me that are Willys specific.
Just a thought, from what I found the original Member Map was hosted by a service that is not around, the second version I could not find.
It's a process for sure to maintain this.
I personally would not use my home address although just by sharing this not sure what others can see?
The Map in general supports I think 10,000 spots and each layer 2000, tou can have 10 layers, I don't forsee all members jumping in on this and it could fizzle out pretty quickly.
Here is how I set this up.
Personally not sure if I would ever need this either......
But it was easy enough to pitch the concept if others wanted in and thought it was a good idea.
Here is a draft, (not really a draft, it's live and works on my devices.)
OWF Vendor and Members Map
It appears this would be a manual deal, maybe let's take baby steps and see if this is not a duplicate effort of sorts. I don't see that others can add places.
If not a duplicate effort or there is not an already known easier way, I see this as follows if it's a manual process.
Will start a new thread in the Fourm Feedback with the basic overview of what this is and folks can post some version of the following.
If anyone sees a flaw in what I shared let me know, I tried to hide all my personal info and the sort, hopefully that's working and I'm not sharing a bunch of my stuff.

- Desired name (or Member name)
- Desired pin location.
- Could be the basic city and state or a physical location.
- Can also provide the coordinates.
