Not working for me either, and I think it is down to the fact that you haven't make the Editgrid spreadsheet Read-only (allow public visitors to view) - check out your share settings for the spreadsheet you are using.

Okay So that did help, I took that spreadsheet and edited to my needs and now my map looks better!! Smiley Smiley Smiley
Before with the one that has instructions: http://www.editgrid.com/user/michaellindahl/Kiva_Loans-no_additional_data.myloansexhibit.html
After, editing your personal one: http://www.editgrid.com/user/michaellindahl/My_Kiva_Loans_-_Take_2.myloansexhibit.html

Okay What I did to make it work, I took your personal editgrid spreadsheet replaced it with my data, looked at the EditGrid Kiva Loan Homepage, took that code and took off all the stuff that made up the side bar and poof! Its running on my site Thumbs Up Thanks!

If you think you're too small to make a difference try sleeping in a closed room with a mosquito, or give kiva.org a try.

Chris, I need some help again, the map factor doesn't work, and the KML latitude and longitude coordinates are not replaced by the info in Additional Info

and the status of the loans on the first page no longer works however that may not be important, Chris, because I don't know how you made this and Kiva has changed their XML format for exporting it would be nice if you could update the spreadsheet if you had extra time on your hands...

I would love to spend some time on this, but I just can't at the moment and what spare time I am trying to find will shortly have to be focused on picture and calendar stuff which I am also way behind on.

The copy of the spreadsheet et al you have been using was my early prototype and only hacked together for fun.  This version is a bit more polished: http://www.editgrid.com/user/kivaexport/Kiva_Loans-no_additional_data and you should be able to find some useful formula to reuse - including working map factor (which is overridden if you include coordinates on a per loan basis).
