Current installation at facilmap.org uses stuff from thunderforest.com and uni-heidelberg.de , and this has 2 disadvantages:

  1. Tracker blockers warn about this and block resource (map is shown anyway; I don't know the need)
  2. This design makes users and sysadmins to distrust FacilMap.

Which resources are you talking about? The map tiles? I see neither the possibility nor the necessity to self-host those.

narcisgarcia commented 7 years ago

I've tried facilmap.org with a web browser blocking thunderforest.com and uni-heidelberg.de , and map tiles are shown anyway. This means other kind of resources are taken from those domains (fonts? scripts? images? styles?)

cdauth commented 7 years ago

No, not really. As far as I can think, no non-image resources are taken from any other domains. Maybe your browser had the images cached?

narcisgarcia commented 7 years ago

May be the cache confusion. Now I've tried with new zones and cannot view tiles unless I set exceptions for those domains. Thanks.
