Hello, I have added a new row in the info box at the bottom of map:





As you can read users can use a modified version of onosm.org to add their bitcoin venue.

Let's go to check it out! https://www.coinmap.it


I'm looking for translations for this new row for the following languages:
- German
- Russian
- Japanese
- Portuguese
- Czech
- Slovak

Can you help me?

It would be more faster if you do post up on Services section of this forum if you do tend to find out some translators.

Thanks to layer1gfx I have covered german translation.

i added a new venue in thailand on OSM, how long does it take to show up on the app?

coinmap.it is down?

I believe that anything you add should first be approved by OP (or at least, that's how I remember the old CoinMap being like).

Its do loads like forever.

It's working fine for me. If clearing the cache doesn't work, try to change the browser/device.

[layer1gfx]

edit:

if new locations have to be approved first, then please make sure to check from time to time.
for thailand for instance, i see many locations on other maps but not on the app.
maybe with a bit of help from the community, this could be updated?

the website loaded first for quite a while.

i tested it again on chrome and firefox and now it seems to be fine.

[DaveF]

Very slow loading for me at 1st.
I am on a business trip and wanted to see if there was anything nearby, gave up waiting and went for a walk around the hotel.
Came back a while later and it was fine.

Other pages were good.

Is it trying to pull a ton of data during the 1st load?

-Dave

[layer1gfx]

i see, so it's just downloading locations. sure, then it is worth the waiting time.

As displayed in the info box at the bottom of the site, the map is updated every day.

The website experienced some problems in the past weeks, but now it should work.

Its do loads like forever.

Yes, it was this the issue I faced last month. Please double check it and let me know if it happens again.

I believe that anything you add should first be approved by OP (or at least, that's how I remember the old CoinMap being like).

If you add your venue using OpenStreetMap you do not need to be approved. Anyway some OSM contributor/moderator could change/delete it later if it violates any rule.
If you add it using Bitcoin OnOsm, yes, you need some OSM contributor/moderator see your request and create venue for you.

It's working fine for me. If clearing the cache doesn't work, try to change the browser/device.

Clearing the cache should do the trick, anyway please let me know if you encounter the same problem.

If all maps use OpenStreetMap data, there would never be a problem with data synchronization.

Yes, the map is displayed only when all venues are loaded, and often it could takes some time.

-Dave

Yes, it pulls all data during the first load.
If you have an Android smartphone and you need to know bitcoin venues during your business trip you could consider to install Bitcoin Map. It uses the same data.

i see, so it's just downloading locations. sure, then it is worth the waiting time.

It downloads all bitcoin venues at the first load of the website and this could take some time.
If any developer could improve the app feel free to have a look at the source code.

Although that is good in *theory* when siting on slow hotel wi-fi with no other option it really is not the best.
At least put up a bit of text that tells a visitor that so they (me) don't hit refresh waiting for it to load.

Seriously, I feel like I am on 1995 dial up speed where I am.

-Dave

[DaveF]

Did a bit of testing.
Yeah, you can really feel it's lack of performance on slower connections.

You might want to work on a way to load the data differently. Don't ask me what it is but there has to be a better way. Home FiOS is great. 4G access point, pretty good. Trying at the fringe of Wi-Fi where I can still get to something like news.google.com in several seconds I can feel and see coinmap start to crawl.

I've checked the website.
I can see the map after half minute I think.
I found minor bug when I tried to open the pinned point.

Initial map view:


After click it and zoom in:


After reload it several times:


I think your platform is not up to date as well, because we ban bitcoin for payment in Indonesia.
So, the pinned point (merchant, atm, etc) is not accurate at the moment.

Maybe adding some text could be useful. Thank you for your suggestion.

I'm sorry, I do not understand what bug you have found.
About the data, as stated before CoinMap uses OpenStreetMap data, so some contributor should update/remove points. Feel free to contribute

I did add a loading percentage text. Please have a look at it and tell me if it could be better now to figure out the loading progress.

Thank you.

It's definitely better with the progress... but, I can't access the site using chrome for some reason? I tried on my PC, phone and also clearing the cache but nothing helped, just stuck in the loading page with 0% progress. It's working fine with Edge and Firefox though.
