    Hello. Thanks for this plugin. I see it being very useful, and I’m testing it now and will implement with the Pro version with registered users, but have a few questions first:

    1 – Is there an expiry date that Registered users can/must enter for their location? For me this is required, since they will be limited time events, and I don’t trust people to always mention the time-frame in the description and go back and remove their location, which otherwise would clutter the map with old events. For my site these would generally be days, weeks or at most a few months in the future.

    2 – I assume in the “Public pages for locations” it would allow people to see contact info for the user so others could contact them, correct?

    3 – Is there a way to limit registered users to only have one active location on the map?

    4 – As a follow-up to #1, any chance of having a user opt-in for emails to be sent when their location expires so they can get a link to enter a new one. With my use-case the people will be moving on to new locations, so it would be nice to remind them to enter a new one on the map when one expires.

    Thanks again, and I look forward to implement OUM on my site.

    Hi @howardd2d,

    Thanks for reaching out!

    1. No, there is no expiry functionality yet. However, I will add a Date field type with one of the next release. Maybe you can leverage that by removing locations that have passed the date (via a script).
    2. The Public Page is basically an empty page. You can use shortcodes to display individual values of a location over there. Please see the “Help” Section on the plugin settings on how to do this.
    3. No, due to this a very rare use case.
    4. No, please see 1)

    Sorry, that I had to respond with many NOs this time. I’m always trying to make the feature requests happen but I need to focus on requests a broader audience would need.

    I’m planing to extend the code with actions/hooks. So developers will have the possibility to write custom code that hooks into the workflow of Open User Map. This will make a lot of things possible. This will probably be a part of the next major release.

    Best Regards,
    Daniel
