Maps wrong for Pathfinder Society events


Website Feedback

Silver Crusade

I was just looking at upcoming Pathfinder Society events, and the maps provided on the pages of the entries from Google Maps are showing the wrong locations for where these events take place. From what I'm seeing, I'd guess your web site is just passing the city name to Google Maps, rather than the whole address, since their map is in the right town, but not pointing to the right address.

Actually we provide a default location based on the address that the organizer types in, but they get a little Google map on which they can drag around the indicator. So it's up to the organizer to make sure the location is accurate.

That said, the page for entering that information is kind of terrible and it's probably non-obvious that you can do that when you're creating an event. Fixing that process is pretty high on the todo list.

I know the event I posted the other day has a street address of main street, but the store front is actually on canal street, so that is were I put the pin. Could be something like that


Wait.. I can drag the pin around?

I'm off to fix the front door location of my FLGS.

Every event I've registered the location for, the map has always been way off. I've tried moving the pin, but either there's a trick to it, or I just can't figure it out. Others I've talked to have the same issue with the games they schedule as well.
