Re: [LegacyUG] have been unable to get location mapping function to work
They don't have a solution because it is not important to them. It is an easy fix; others did it very soon after Bing changed their maps. Bing provides help. Millennia could fix it, but don't making several of their functions now unusable. Perhaps they lost good programmers that caused their acquisition by MyHeritage; perhaps the good programmers left after acquisition; perhaps their programmers have been told to not spend time on mapping. Sad.

Re: [LegacyUG] have been unable to get location mapping function to work
The mapping function was broken by a change to the BING website's method of accessing maps. The programmers have been working on a fix but it has taken a long time.
