Hi slotpro,

It's great contribution. Good job!
We are going to add it in the documentation/howto section.

Many thanks.

Best regards,

This is great thing.
Wonderful that we can actually use the content style calling of the plug-ins
It does work.
You can really use any content plug-in in the templates by calling them the usual way.
Good tip you gave here.

Would it be possible to use this to map a number of different articles to a single map?

I want to create a GoogleMap with a number of address points, clicking on each would bring up an article (in a pop-up, ultimately) about that address - and I'm wondering if JSeblod with this Plugin could achieve this by adding the location info to each article?

Hi nicol

To have more than one location marker per map you need to set up your map using a KML file. More info on these is here:

www.kksou.com/php-gtk2/Joomla-Google-Map...s-on-Google-Maps.php

If you put the text you want displayed for each location in the KML description tag then that will appear as a popup balloon when the user clicks the location marker. There may be a way of linking the marker to a jSeblod CCK article but just info text in the popup balloon may meet your needs.

Also you can try to use Phoca Map www.phoca.cz/phocamaps. It may be suitable for you.
Using component you can create a map and a lot of markers on it. And then by using their plugin insert map into your content type.
There are not so many automatic options in this component, but what i can advise you is to try it

Thanks Peter L and Jeka for those suggestions - really helpful.

hello

i had gmaps, this plugin and it worked but now out of the blue it stoped to work. it is published and setup as it should be, but all i get is the code, no gmap.

really don't know what happened. anyone had similar exp??

cheers,
daniel

Hi Woss,

Do you have jSeblod CCk plugin in first position?

Do you have the code code generated (with address or other field value)?

Best Regards

Hi Bes,

i do now !!!
i never think about that, you should mark somewhere as important.
Thanks a lot.
btw can you please take a look on my post on this link www.jseblod-cck.com/forum/9-fields/5962-...imit=10&start=10

Thanks,
daniel

<p>{mosmap address='<?php echo $jSeblod->gm_ad->value; ?>'}</p>

Hi, Travkin

in demo use plugin Google map develop by kksou use code

{googleMaps addr="youfield"}

if you use googel map plugin develop by Mike Reumer use code

{mosmap address='youfield'}

I got this to work the same way as Travkin, using Mike Reumer's great plugin.

Slotpro: Are you saying you can just type the name of the file in index.php and it will display its property? I tried this and couldn't get it to work.

btw, big kudos to you on the quality of your jSeblod-powered websites so far!

My next step will be to see if I can get the marker on the form to be draggable so that people can reposition to a better longitude and latitude than what's provided by the address.

Hi all,

I am not very familiar with jseblod yet and I am stuck at point :
4.create custom template use code

I tried editing [Advanced Content] template but I don't see where I should insert <div>{googleMaps addr="youfield"}</div>

Where should I insert this ?

I am using Advanced Content Template in order to display several tabs in my articles ... How can I make sure GoogleMaps plugin will be displayed on my GoogleMaps Tab ?

Should I copy Advanced content Template to a new one and change it to custom mode ?

Hi again,

Did not figure out how to make this work yet.

Isn't there a way to do this somewhere else than in a custom template ?
For example : creating a 'Code' fiels which would call google maps plugin ?

Can this be done with a "Joomla Plugin (Content)" Field type ?
Then what should I put in FORM :: Construction->Default Value ?

This does not work :
{googleMaps addr="Adresse"}

Probably misses some <php> tags ...
