Assigning a pin to multiple content

[Daelda]

I would love the capability to associate a pin to more than one piece of content. For example, let's say we have "Joe's Bar", obviously we want to associate that to the bartender and owner, Joe. But what about his bouncer, Big Mike? At the moment, the only way to do that, that I have found, is to add another pin.

The pin should probably just be associated to the location (it's not like there's a lot of room on a pin to hold more than one thing!) Then your location should have all the entries in it for Owner and Employees, etc. That's what I do, anyway, and it works pretty well, IMHO.

Thanks, the obvious escaped me. I was using Locations for larger expanses, I forgot that it was a category for establishments as well.

Yeah, actually one of my requests is for tools to paint overlays on maps so we could actually do pins and larger expanses as well. I'd really like to be able to select, say, a neighborhood entry that highlights an area instead of just a pin. Maybe it will be something we get eventually. I hope, anyway!

Nice idea. I was thinking of a similar result, but couldn't come up with any way to implement it. That sounds like a very nice solution (if it's feasible, of course).
