3.20.3 changed some things and some links could no longer be seen

non mesh markers now have popups similar to the new popups.

goes with merge !12

main info tab, services tab, links tab.

if there are no services, the services tab will not show up.

if there are no links, a message saying some of the reasons why that may be will be shown.

also updated the "firmware check" popups.

cleaned up a little bit...

I am sure I forgot the "Non Mesh" markers. Will fix those shortly.

Fixes #4

additional .sql file in case automatic change over does not work.

what a pain. hopefully this is it.

thx n2mh

Removed an errant "echo" that would cause output in "silent" mode.

When the polling script parsed through the interfaces looking for the
wlan MAC address and ip (and the LAN ip) it always had issues with the
different versions of the json file on different firmwares.
I think this has finally been solved.
The polling script should pull the proper info from even a 3.15.1.0 node
now and if those nodes have location info they should now appear on the
map too.
The admins of those devices should be strongly reminded to update!!

I mistakenly removed the red and green dot from the status area of the
admin page. They are restored now.

Parallel node polling will work now, but it is not recommended on large
networks, as there is still no control over how many scripts are
spawned. Small networks of should be just fine.
(this has been tested many times on a network of 20-30 (sometimes 100's)
with no issues)
Use at your own risk though.

New warnings in "Test Mode" to alert when a nodes location has been
"fixed" or not. It's very noticable now.

Some general clean up/typo fixing and removal of things that were long
due for removal.

fixed some file attributes.

Added some things to be used in the near future but are not done yet.

Ability to Hide Admin Button

Can change the non mesh markers info without having to recreate now.

The polling script can now find the info for some nodes that it could
not before, such as firmware 3.15.1.0b4, this was a pleasant side effect
of trying to remove some of the bunk entries i nthe database.

The polling script will now also try to check and "fix" the database,
this is due to changes in the newer AREDN firmwares (anything beyond
3.17RC1)
Some of those changes were made by me, just for the map. :)
These DB "fixes" also include removing some columns that were no longer
and were making the DB much larger than it needs to be, this will also
help cut down on the memory footprint when loading the webpage.

The numbers at the bottom of the map reflecting nodes and link, should
be more accurate now (I hope).

The Map legend has been change to use pure HTML5/CSS, the only images
are the small circle icons, this may cause issues with very old
browsers...

Removed some files that were no longer needed or forgetten about.

This will be refined over time and available to all user if enabled,
but for now a quick addition to allow the map to be shown on sbarc.org
again.

Discovered how to remove an annoying behaviour of the "Grouped Layers"
control.
Also fixed a couple other small things so the HTML was proper.

Added 'non-US' 5GHz channel numbers.

Device band was determined by channel, 900MHz and 2.4GHz have some of
the same channel number and the script had a hard time telling which was
which.
This has (hopefully) been fixed now. Since there are only 3 AREDN
compatible 900MHz devices, it was easier to just find those certain
board_id's. This also allowed channel #4 to be added back into the list
for 2.4GHz. (yes it was a hack but mostly worked :) )

Additionally, I've been trying to optimize the map_function.inc file.
A couple of the functions in that file consume 90%+ of the time it takes
to render the webpage. (load_LinkedTO() is a beast!)
On the cloud server this can sometimes completely stall the script(s)
and fail to load the page at all.

Finally finished a rough version of some admin pages that allow for
maintenance of the DB, fixing node locations, removing nodes, etc...
Username/Password is required to use the admin pages.
You must create an intial user/password.
When you first load the admin page it will ask you to create an initial
user.
This initial user is a "super user" and will be able to create other
users.
(more info is on the admin pages themselves)

Fixed a stupid mistake in export2csv.php.

Rearranged the columns in the node_info datebase which make the data
more readable when exported as CSV file.

Removed old DB columns that were now unused.

Changed the *.css-default file(s) to *-default.css so that IE will use
them without complaints.

More than a few other little changes here and there...

There is no longer a user-files.tar.gz file!

The user must remove the "-default" from the file extension, save the
file and then make their own changes. I have seen many other programs
use this and it seems to make sense.
The README has been updated to reflect this change.
Other ideas are appreciated still! :)

With the exception of user-settings.ini, the code will check for the
existance of the non "-default" files and use those instead of the
default ones.
Also if the user does not create a user-settings.ini file of their own
an error will be thrown telling them such.

Fixed the Popup for "total number of link" in the attributon bar.

Some new values were added to the meshmap.css file in order to make it
easier for the user to make customizations to the page if they want.
More of these will probably be added in the future.

please test and let me know.

I will update (and create) and changelog file quite soon.

Enjoy!

Added "ini_set('memory_limit', '128M') to get-map-info and map_display.
If you have a large network, you may need to increase the amount of
memory needed. 128M should be more than enough in most cases, unless you
have a "Mega Mesh" like N2MH does. :)

Added "last_seen" info to the station popups (map_functions.inc)

Also added (hopefully) a catch in get-map-info to find a "stalled" node
polling run.
Sometimes the node polling portion of the script never completes and it
never gets a chance to unset the "currently_running" bit in the
database.
There is now a check so that if the "currently_running" bit is 1 and the
time the script last polled the node is greater than 3 * the
"node_polling_interval" (from the ini file), then the script will just
go out and poll the nodes as normal.
If it completes, it will unset the "currently_running" bit and will
update the timestamp.

These changes have all been suggested by N2MH. Thanks Mark! I finally
got to it!

creation

The array that was fixed for PHP 7.2.3 was not fixed right.
This resulted in missing/inaccurate info in the station pop-ups.

Part of the array was reinitializing when it should not have, since it
was already created at that point.

a pretty simple if (is_array()) { ... }else { ... } fixes it.
