I'm not able to see the map either, and I don't see where I can edit my map preferences under my profile. I have my location set, and I saw a place to check a box if I wanted to be shown on the map, but that is all.

**edit** I found myself on the map, but it shows me as a forum member only.

Hi , been trying to add myself to the map but can't see the map location field in the personal details only the location field, am I doing something wrong ?

I just checked your settings. You did not have the option set to show yourself on the map, and the location format didn't include UK. I've fixed those, but the map only updates once a day at midnight Pacific time (8am tomorrow for you?) Check again after then and see if it works.

Okay, I went into your account settings and adjusted another option. Under Security, there is the option as where to grab your location; IP, your entered location, etc. it was set to pick any. I changed it to your specific entered location. The location you entered resolves correctly on Google Maps, so it should here, as well. I also set the accuracy under security to 5 km. You can make that more or less depending on your concern of folks knowing where you are.

Give it overnight again, and let me know what happens after a map refresh. Thank you for your patience!

I looked for my location and it wasn’t on the map I added location details on to my account. Does it take time for it to appear?
