✨ Visitor Suggestions for Pro Maps
Pro map owners can now let visitors submit suggested locations directly from map pages.
Highlights:
- New Suggest Location action in map controls
- Suggestion dialog with pin placement workflow
- Anonymous visitors can submit name + pin
- Signed-in visitors can also submit description, category, tags, and image
- Optional auto-approve mode for instant publishing
🧾 Submissions Moderation Dashboard
Added a dedicated /dashboard/submissions moderation experience for map owners.
What you can do:
- Review pending submissions by map
- Approve/reject individual submissions
- Bulk approve/reject up to 50 submissions at once
- Track pending counts from dashboard navigation
🗂️ New Map Management Page
Introduced a dedicated map management workspace at /dashboard/maps/$mapId.
Includes:
- Settings (visibility, slug, submissions, branding)
- Locations, categories, and tags management
- Stats and audit log sections
- Embed controls and danger zone actions
🔗 Historical Slug Redirects
Map slug changes now preserve old links. Visiting an old slug automatically redirects to the latest slug.

🏷️ Location Tags System
Organize your locations with multiple tags for flexible filtering and grouping. Unlike categories (which control pin appearance), tags let you organize locations across multiple dimensions.
What you can do:
- Create unlimited tags per map with custom colors
- Assign multiple tags to any location
- Filter locations by tags in both map view and embedded maps
- Import/export tags via CSV, KML, and GeoJSON
Perfect for complex maps like trip itineraries ("family-friendly", "outdoor", "budget") or business directories ("open-late", "parking", "accessible").
📊 CSV Bulk Updates
Managing maps with 100+ locations just got way easier. You can now export your locations to CSV (with IDs), edit them in bulk using Excel or Google Sheets, and re-import to update everything in place.
How it works:
- Export your locations to CSV (includes location IDs)
- Edit multiple locations in Excel or Google Sheets
- Re-import to update locations in place
The system shows you a smart preview of changes before applying updates, and you can choose exactly which fields to update.
Features:
- Diff preview before importing
- Selective field updates (choose which columns to update)
- Handles new locations, updates, and missing IDs gracefully
- Batched processing for maps with 1000+ locations
🗺️ Interactive Map Guide
Need a quick refresher on map features? We've added:
- Contextual tooltips on every map control (hover on desktop, long-press on mobile)
- Map Guide sheet - Quick reference for all features, organized by category
- Access it anytime via the
?button in map view
Works on both desktop (modal dialog) and mobile (bottom sheet) with responsive design.
📍 Better Location Discovery
Geolocation nudge: A friendly one-time prompt helps visitors discover the "Find Your Location" button. Shows after the onboarding tour completes (or on next visit for returning users).
Location shortlisting: Bookmark your favorite locations with a heart icon and filter to see only your shortlisted spots. Stored locally (localStorage) for anonymous users.
📋 Sortable Maps Dashboard
Your dashboard maps table now has sortable columns. Click any header (Title, Locations, Views, Last Viewed, Created) to organize your maps the way you want.
Also added:
- New "Created" column showing relative time (e.g., "3 days ago")
- Simplified Country column to show just the flag (with country name on hover)
- Toggle sort direction by clicking the same column again
🐛 Bug Fixes
- Fixed dark mode styling issues in Maps Table, CSV import preview, and location panels
- Fixed category update failing when markerValue is null
- Fixed clusters not re-appearing after removing all filters on map view
- Fixed CSV import tags not importing correctly
- Fixed progress bar stuck at 0% during CSV import
- Fixed pin colors and category pills not updating when editing a category
- Fixed 'edit' search param persisting after closing location sheet
