Purpose of the mod

This mod will add an option to the Map Settings dialog to disable the showing of the map on the person pages.


Developer

This mod was developed by Bart 'Roebie' Degryse

Idea by Cyndi Wiseman in response to a question by Mitch Gariador


Requirements

  • A working TNG installation.
  • A backup of all affected files (see the list in the summary in the upper right corner of the page)
  • An installed current version of the Mod Manager (is already included in TNG v9)


Installation

  1. Download the appropriate zip file as shown in the summary in the upper right corner of the page. NOTE that I host these zip files on my own server. That way I can count the number of downloads for each mod I made and estimate the relevance of such mod.
  2. Extract the config file from the downloaded zip file into the mods folder.
  3. Follow the normal automated installation for Mod Manager, as shown in the example Mod Manager - Installing Config Files to install the mod.
  4. Go to Admin >> Setup >> Configuration >> Map Settings. Change the setting for the new Show the map on the person page option to No. Don't forget to press the Save button


Other Languages

Those who use other languages in addition to English can find appropriate mods to add Dutch, French or Spanish custom text additions in the summary in the upper right corner of this page. Follow the same procedure as explained above to install them.


Visualization of this mod

The following images show the visual effects of installing the mod.

Without the mod installed

This is how the Admin >> Setup >> Configuration >> Map Settings page looks in the default TNG 9 template 3 layout.
