Deletion (and therefore editing) of Extra Pins

Posted by Chris Thu, 24 May 2007 12:12:00 GMT

You asked for it, we heard you ask for it… we listened and nodded, smiling…

Now we’ve actually done something about it; extra pins that you add to your maps are now deletable.

To do this, select the pin you want to blast out of existence, and click the innocuously named ‘delete’ link at the bottom right of the map. One quick password entry form later and it’s gone for good.

Scary disclaimer: Please don’t delete pins you didn’t mean to, because we won’t be able to easily get them back for you – once it’s gone, it’s gone.

How does this lead to editing, I hear you say? Well, now you can delete extra pins, you can simply remove those you which to change and replace them with pins containing shiny new text, or moved to a different place. Editing nirvana is upon us! We’ve put a special delivery box in the office lobby dedicated to cards, flowers and letters of thanks. Just in case.

By the way, our new and extremely brilliant web developer Tristan has now started, and this was one of the first things he worked on. Now he’s started we’ve more time to work on the project, so expect some more exciting things from Pin in the Map in the near future.
