Hi, Would the v1 Bed Generator be ported to v2? I was just trying to recreate a bed from v1 days. If not, are folks creating several small Areas? Jp ---

My [Land Drawing Tool contrib module](https://github.com/symbioquine/farmOS_land_drawing_tool) includes a bed generator: ![](https://global.discourse-cdn.com/free1/uploads/farm_os/original/2X/6/644b88714f7e4361395af5542f3fee8ad593a25f.gif) ---

The bed generator hasn’t been ported to v2 yet… it may still but there hasn’t been a ton of demand (or sponsorship) to get it done. I personally think it was a very useful tool and would love to see it available in v2! In the meantime, @Symbioquine has done some great work making it easier to draw individual beds of the same size easier. Check out the “snapping grid” feature documentation here: [Mapping locations | farmOS](https://farmos.org/guide/mapping/#use-the-snapping-grid) It still requires adding each bed land asset one at a time, so it’s more tedious than the v1 bed generator, but it works. You can also play around with clever workarounds if you want by manually manipulating the WKT geometry in one map and copying it over to other assets. @Symbioquine also wrote a module to make that step easier: [GitHub - symbioquine/farmOS\_land\_drawing\_tool: A land drawing tool module for farmOS - adds a tool for more quickly creating land assets.](https://github.com/symbioquine/farmOS_land_drawing_tool) Although that isn’t available on Farmier (yet??) so it would only help if you are self-hosting farmOS. ---

Ah @Symbioquine beat me to it… yet again. 😂 ---

Seems like that could happen as soon as there’s enough demand (and you have bandwidth to review it 😉) ---

I’m having trouble installing this module in my Farmos. Getting error “An AJAX HTTP error occurred. HTTP Result Code: 500 Debugging information follows. Path: /farmOS/web/batch?id=23&op=do\_nojs&op=do StatusText: error ResponseText: The website encountered an unexpected error. Try again later.” any suggestions please ---

@ibekannfarms Can you see more specific error messages in [your-url]/admin/reports/dblog? Generally when you get an error of “The website encountered an unexpected error. Try again later.” there is a more specific PHP error in the logs. If not in /admin/reports/dblog then maybe in your Docker / Apache logs. Also, what farmOS version are you running? It looks like the Land Drawing Tool is compatible with farmOS 3.x, but not yet 4.x.
