Map style, Hikrcode, Geotags

Hello Hikrs!

New features every week! This time it's my turn to present them to you.

Map

As you can see there is a new style for our mini-map (i.e. the map in your reports). It is more light, especially designed for modern browsers, IE users can still see the map, but they are missing the beauty (as usual :-))

There is a new list of external maps available via  "More maps..." button. There are new links like map.admin.ch or geohack. We would like to add the wonderful map.wanderland.ch, but we couldn't figure out how to link it (I mean link with coordinates and zoom). Someone knows how?

Waypoints on the photo

As simultaneously and independently suggested by genepi and bergpfad73, we modified the interface for adding places to the photo. Now, newly added points always appear on the top of the list, so it's easy to drag them to the photo. The search field is also always on top. The only remaining problem is that when the list is long it becomes unusable. To solve...

Hikrcode

The proposition of dominik wasn't ignored and now we have a new hikrcode "post". For example there is this report:

http://www.hikr.org/tour/post27907.html

You take the post27907 part, put it between brackets [post27907] then it gives this:

Meiggelenstock 2416m

If you don't want the original title, you can add some text. So this [post27907 some title] gives that:

some title.

We also remembered what whannes suggested in the same thread and cleaned photo titles from hikrcodes, see here.

Finally, nobody asked for it, but we did an experiment with the "p" hikrcode. Now if you write [p Piz Arina], it will render it like this:  Piz Arina. If the name is ambiguous, it will show it like that: Piz Nair, but then, if you add elevation, it will work again:  Piz Nair 3057m. This is an experimental feature, we don't know if it always works :-))

HTML Editor

We changed the config of the new editor, so it's again possible to paste Word text without cleaning it, like with the old one. Otherwise, what's your impression of this new editor? Should we keep it?

Well, that's all for this week.

Bon weekend a toutes et a tous!
