# Release 6.8.11

[https://github.com/merefield/discourse-locations/pull/126](https://github.com/merefield/discourse-locations/pull/126)

@Roi you got your wish … this was admittedly quite an important one.

User Map will no longer serve data if any of following is true:

- User is not logged in and `hide_user_profiles_from_public` is active.
- Plugin setting `location_user_map` is OFF
- Site’s `enable_user_directory` is OFF

User Map link in community section should no longer show in those circumstances either.

If you think Locations is awesome and I did a great job, you can [buy me a coffee](https://github.com/sponsors/merefield/sponsorships?sponsor=merefield&tier_id=464896&preview=false) ☕, and if Locations is important to your business or organisation, please consider [sponsoring me on one of the higher tiers](https://github.com/sponsors/merefield?frequency=recurring&sponsor=merefield)🏅 . This will all help to guarantee timely updates to Locations and its future.
