- Friend must grant permission to Locate On Map AND be in a region with a space in the name, logging into Morris works as expected.
- Log into SL Dashboard the friend with permission to locate on map.
- Click the link provided for their name.
- Chrome produces a blank page with #blocked
- In Chrome, Inspect the name/link element and note the space in the region name is not encoded
- Edit the element replacing the space with %20 and save
- Verify the link works as expected

Can no longer see friends location in Friends List on Account web page
Amir Seoung
For a few months now, I can no long see what region my partner is in on the Friends list on the Second Life web page for my account.
My partner has me set to be able to see her on the map, and it works fine in the Viewer once I am actually in SL: I can see what region she is in, TP to her, etc.
For many years, I've been able to hover over her character(s) names on the website on my account page, and can see what region she is logged into there. And I can use that link to launch the viewer and rez at her location.
However, now no region name appears when I hover over her name. No link info show at all in my web browser.
When I click her name, it takes me to a blank page with a URL of "about:blank#blocked"
This is an issue which after researching online for a bit, appears to be isolated to Chromium browsers. Since I use Brave, Chrome, and Edge (all Chromium-based), this affects me no matter which browser and no matter which PC I'm using.
What I've found is reports of the issue affecting sites other than Second Life:
This would explain why it used to always work until some months ago. Looks like there need to be changes made on the web-server side to repress this behavior.
