I would love to know where my fig neighbors are located. Not everyone makes it to regional gatherings. Its an opportunity to get to know fellow enthusiasts, to explore solutions to localized problems, to share cuttings or drop off an extra tree over a cup of coffee... especially if you have young starts or a larger potted plant you would hesitate to mail. __________________ Wish list: Patlicans, Adriatic, Salem Dark, Lebanese Red, Conadria In Ground: Alma, Brunswick,Bryant Dark, BT, Celeste, Dominic, HC, It.

Please add me if you make a map. Noel in Banning, CA The only thing of raiding size is Brown Turkey and Black Mission but your welcome to it even 'if you can't get past the dogs'. Hey maybe I'll name my first unknown fig after that- "Sweet Revenge" or "Mad Dash". Just kidding, ask and you shall receive. __________________ "A fig by any other name, is a Newton."

it was set up private just for us on the forum. i changed the settings to where anyone with the link can edit. in the past i used the feature where i enter the users email address and it sends them access. Now it should be open for anyone to edit. __________________ Picayune, MS Zone 8b

Thanks Bobby Unfortunately I still have no idea how I add myself. How do I sign in? Do I need to sign in? How do I edit it? Playing around I cannot get my location as blue rather than green(I am not a tree) nor can I label it, the help function is rather generic and frustrating. __________________ Ed Zone 6A - Southwest PA --------------------------- Short wish list: CDDG, LSU Red, Dark Greek (Navid), Col Littman's Black Cross.

TO ADD TO THE MAP DO THIS: 1) Click on the paint drop on the top bar 2) A cross will show so move the mouse to your location & click there 3) When the window pops open & highlights the field in blue, enter your name/F4f ID (the number will go away & your name will show) then click okay 4) Now, find your name/ID on the left side list & click on it, go to the bottom right side of the list & find the paint bucket to choose the color blue for your name. You are done! If I missed a step, please excuse or edit this list. Also, are all the green fig trees just trees people found? I suppose I can add a few. __________________ Meg-Hardiness Zone 10a Looking for...

Ok, I'm stumped. This worked fine on the old map that supposedly is not being used (worked exactly as described). However, I couldn't get the same top bar with the paint drop to appear on the new map no matter what I tried. Any idea of what is going on?

Well, instead of clicking on the link on Bobby's post above I did a websearch for "Fig 4 Fun Members". Up came the map at this link: https://www.google.com/maps/d/viewer?mid=zBmQNHLG-rjk.kiexdJdUxOc8&hl=en_US This one has me added, which I had done earlier. Those wishing to add themselves, try doing it via this link. I think you have to have a newer version of IE or Google Chrome as a browser (not sure of that) Bobby's link takes me to a older version that I cannot edit. __________________ Ed Zone 6A - Southwest PA --------------------------- Short wish list: CDDG, LSU Red, Dark Greek (Navid), Col Littman's Black Cross.

Hi Bobby, the map works great but the flaw in it of having it open to everyone to edit makes it easy to really mess it up. There are some out there and I'm not speaking of members, who when they find such a map go around changing everyone's location or info. I really like the map but I think a better solution is to have it private and only have one or two members with access to make the changes. Everyone who wants to be on the map would message those with "the power" and have them add the location to the map. That would also make it easier for those who have problems with the program.

Darn thing is worthless to me. It will not work at all. There is no paint drop at the top etc. I think that the map will be a good feature. I use an apple computer perhaps that is the issue the program does not work with safari. larry __________________ Larry Sierra Vista,Az Zone 8b____________ wish list: Black Madeira, Black Ishia,Italian258,Maltese Falcon,Maltese Beauty,Fico Preto,Galicia Negri,Black mission,dwarf peach tree.

Yay, Joann1536! Your green dot can be changed to a blue dot when you open up the map click on your dot and look on the bottom right corner, fid the tiny paint can icon then click on it to bring up the color option. I hope this helps (I may have missed a step). __________________ Meg-Hardiness Zone 10a Looking for...
