    Glad it’s not just me being incompetent then :)

    Hi Andy, thanks for looking. I’ve tried a shift refresh and not getting pop up bubbles on the church_admin_map. Did it definitely make it into 0.5941?

    As for kml, what I had in mind was a text field in the options where one could paste the kml that was to be inserted into the data that was sent to the Google Map. That way I could grab the parish boundary and church building kml from CofE and paste it into the box in the WP admin area. This static string would then be appended to the dynamically generated position markers data so that the map would include parish boundary, church building, and member locations. Sorry I’m struggling to describe the concept, but have I succeeded in getting the idea across?

    Thanks
    John

    Hi Andy,

    Thanks for looking at all these things. I’m a bit out of my depth with lots of these things, so I’m grateful for your time.

    • Pop up bubble – doesn’t seem to be active in 0.5941 that I just installed.
    • Overlay – I understand the issues with prioritising the most popular features. All it would take is allowing a custom string to the KML that the plugin. I just tried hacking it into the code, but the plugin seems to produce slightly old-fashioned KML that wasn’t compatible with the KML file I have from CofE:
    • http://www.achurchnearyou.com/kml/parish/parish_100381.kml
      Perhaps best to leave this for now. If I get time I’ll rewrite the KML generation code to make it meet the most recent KML standards.

    • Annual refresh – thanks. At the moment we don’t have any households connected to wp user accounts so I can’t help you there.
    • I think the web page address list issue with CSS is that the text isn’t included in

      tags, and so doesn’t pick up the CSS font from our stylesheets. Is the

      tag required for properly-formed html? This is beyond the limits of my knowledge, but I do know that when I manually inserted

      tags into your PHP code the issue was resolved!

    Kind regards,
    John

    I see, thanks! That makes perfect sense.

    Had a chance to look at this now Andy – thank you. I can’t quite work out if the behaviour I’m seeing is intentional or not: a two-member household where the two members are of different member_type_ids. If a shortcode is used that includes one of them, then they are both listed even though one of them doesn’t have a matching member_type_id. Does that make sense?

    Initial impressions of 0.5937 are that it looks great – thanks!

    Thanks so much Andy. You’re so quick to respond to user issues!

    I’m afraid I’m coming back to you with a couple more issues:
    – webpage & PDF: in multi-person, single-mobile-number households (ie only one person has a mobile number), the name should been still be shown
    – webpage: the telephone hyperlinks are great and could be done for landline numbers too
    – PDF: in the heading there needs to be a space between [churchname]Address list [date]
    – PDF: households with a single-mobile-number are hyperlinked, but others aren’t (ie landlines, and multi-mobile households)

    Hope all this detailed feedback is helpful. I’m getting excited about getting our church using this software, although not much looking forward to entering it all as we’ve not got it in a helpful format currently!

    Hi Andy, thanks for all your work on this. I’m on v0.5934.

    There are still a few issues:
    – on web page, no space between [firstname] and [email]
    – on web page & PDF, in single-person households, the [firstname] is not suppressed before the [mobile]
    – on PDF, in multi-person households, [firstname] is not given before [/email][email]
    – on v-card, the order of people is sometimes reversed (John & Sarah online becomes Sarah & John in the vcard)
    – on v-card, there is an extra space before the surname in the FN field
    – on v-card, there is no indication for multiple email addresses or mobile numbers as to what belongs to whom (could this be added to the note field?)
    – the search box still returns results outside of the shortcode-specified member_type_id

    Many thanks again for all you’re doing to improve this area of the product.
