EDIT: However, you may want to rephrase your installation instructions and change "Find" to something like "In postbit/posbit_legacy find...."

seems decent but if people are spelling their city, not everyone will spell it right meaning no results. Like for example, Chicago. Some of us spell it "Chicago", "Chi-Town", "Chi Town", "Windy City", "The GO" ect.

Hi guys,
I noticed that this mod is not supported. It would be perfect for my forum. Are there any problems that have occurred in installations at all? If anyone could give me a bit more info that would be great with regards to the safety of installing an unsupported mod as i am new to VBulletin. Many thanks No members have liked this post.

I just love this simple modification!! Thanks a lot 4x4 Mecca
![]() I would also like to use this on my MEMBERINFO page, but this seems a little more complicated. Any adea how I could achieve that? Oh, and one minor thing: better to use $vbphrase[location_perm]: in stead of Location: in your template mod. ![]() No members have liked this post.

An issue I'm having is that it's not parsing the spaces as %20 so when it tries to link it links to:
http://maps.google.com/maps?f=q&hl=en&q=gun lake, MI Instead of: http://maps.google.com/maps?f=q&hl=e...n%20lake,%20MI No members have liked this post.
