[FR] Ability to link to a POI (Place)

[sjorge]

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.

I wanted to link to 3 POIs in a e-mail to myself so didn't forget to add more information to them.

This doesn't seem possible, closest I can get is zoom in real close and hope the lat/lng params are enough to get to the POI. However when the area is dense with POIs this doesn't work.

Describe the solution you'd like

• when selecting a POI/Place in map view append &place=<dbid> or similar to the URL (URL already gets updated with lat, lng, z so should be possible I think)
• when deselecting a POI/place remove the query parameter again
• when loading trips and the place query parameter is present focus on that POI/place and 'mark it active'

Could you implement it?

Maybe - I can try with guidance

Implementation plan (optional)

I'm unsure how complex this would be, if it's rather complex probably no point in trying to add this. If it's relatively simple might be nice to add.

Hi 👋,

I'll mock this soon, I have an idea how to ensure it's optimized and using this only if user did select the 'Encode in URL' settings 👍.
I like the idea and I can definitely see myself using it too. I'll work on this in a few weeks 👍

Busy schedule but I managed to find a few minutes today. Decided to go for this quick win, I've committed the changes (only the encoding in URL & show place details on refresh for now, making it available in trips is quite complex as it's not already a thing), it will be included in version 1.44, with the translations, the bookings feature, the support modal etc.
