Reinhart, Thanks for your speedy assistance!
So I've complated the changes you've suggested and whilst doing so I've discovered an error that's been my fault!
Whilst making your template changes I decided to delete all the members images directly in the database to give everybody a clean sheet before running the Cron job.... whilst doing so I realised that I must have changed the 'Auto approve' setting to 'No'..... what a mistake! So any entry's after that point didn't appear.

So after aproving the 'unapproved' members and running the cron job all my members now appear. So...... I'll let it run as it is for a while and make sure everything works with the except of the member image option, then maybe I'll return the 'vbgooglemapme_set_yourlocation' and 'vbgooglemapme_display_yourlocation' templates to their orginals and see if GeekDrew's code changes handle the image code correctly... if they do then the Map would be perfect!

Thanks all for the help, it's good to talk and I couldn't have done it without you! :D

I'm glad you finally got it going Ronseal.

Good man :up:

Thats been straining my small brain :D

Hopefully Stonyarc can make a fix for it soon.

I have just installed Googlemap ME on my 3.6.8 forum. But when ever i try to open the url http://www.unp.co.in/vbgooglemapme.php it says that API key is invalid and the key you have registered is already registered for other website. I registered key for http://www.unp.co.in and entered in ACP but same thing happened. Then i tried registering key for every possible link of my domain. But Google is still tellin me that the key is registered is for some one else.


Don't kwn wat it's all about ?

Hey men !

I still have my problem : markers don't appear !

It would be really great if someone with a minimum of interest could take care of this, please.

Sure enough, I edited the Markers.xml file and deleted all "pimage" entries and it works again. Nice find whomever did that.

That work like a charm! thanks!

seems it takes a few hours for the map to appear...

HI!
I used frappr.coom where many members are on my map. I noticed that the frappr map is made with google technology. I would prefer using your plugin and directly googlemap, do you think its possible to move my frappr map to google map or do i have to ask to all the members to place their marker again? Thanks

The map is their, we have had a fair few members add their details, and we can zoom in on them from the list users page..... but the map does not have any Marker!

what do i need to do to get the markers to appear?

Couple of things--make sure you have approval set to automatic for the markers.

Also, you can run your markers.xml file and see if there are any broken ones, should show up in red

can any body help me out

daaaaaaaaaaaang
after reading nearly 33 pages on this thread, the marker.xml has done it!
Should probably be said by coder in main post or in PDF file!

If i view my entry, and zoom in, their is a Marker over my entry.... but their are no markers when i view the main map.


their is an issue showing in the XML.....how do i fix this?


XML Parsing Error: not well-formed
Location: http://www.southwestscoobies.org.uk/markers.xml
Line Number 6, Column 40:<marker mapid="3" title_map="Scooby2 & Orbs Residence" lng="-2.1921265125275" lat="51.43396243879" userid="624" username="Scooby2" text_map="Our House" type="red" pimage="http://www.southwestscoobies.org.uk/images/googlemapme/noimage.png" />

Sweet, it brought an error.

It just means one of your members has a bad image link. Edit the entry for that user (Scooby2) and remove it.

Should fix the problem.

After much frustration trying to figure out why my markers had stopeed showing up, I finally found the culprit: Highslide Attachment Integration Mod

If I disable this mod, then my markers reappear and everything starts working fine.

Here's another error with this Mod!

I've disabled the '$pimage' ability in this mod as has been advised in this thread and found that my map is working fine, however I've just discovered another error! If somebody enters a '&' character within their title, or 'title_map' as it appears in the markers.xml, this will also stop the markers from showing..... anybody know how to add a fix for this?

My site runs from a .org, .net and the host url. How can i get them all running from the same keyor how can i add three keys.

I think you are right, i have the same problem

I'm having a similiar problem with markers not showing up.
I can see the individual markers for that member only in the "List Users" and then the edit link for that member.
I cannot see anyone in the main map area at all.
Any ideas as where to start looking for this?
Thanks,
Phil

have you browsed out to your markers.xml file and seen if any of the images are broken?

They should show up red.

Do you remove the old cron tast above or leave it??

There is nothing wrong with this mod. I have both upgraded and new installed and it worked with no problem.

There's a problem.
If you don't know, you don't speak. :)


And this problem is soooo long to be solved.....

Well Julrou,

Have you copied the images to your styles eg. /images/googlemapme/*. *must exist also in /style/googlemapme/*. *

You also have to edit ALL Usergroup marker and save them with a color if that should not be the case.

If you want your error solved you have to provide more info since your problem is not this mod but something in you setup.

I also remember when I first used this an did the translation I missed some phrase and had problems with the map displaying.

Start with english and default style, does it work?

Were you able to find a workaround for this? :( I have Highslide installed as well, and no more markers for me.

Phil
I just got lucky on this, but your issue is resolved and im posting this for others that may have issues with markers not showing up correctly.

The issue was a user that put a & in his "marker text" field, this appears to be a issue that the coder will need to work out in the xml file results.

Im guessing there is a char issue in the translation to the marker file.

Ahh,,..
Great,

I just was copying the info that you created and was going to send it to you, then realized who Snakes was,..
Great will check it out.

Is there a way for a user to upload multiple entries on the map?

I have a 4x4 forum and would like for my users to be able to save multiple trail locations.

Mod looks great and was EASY to install.

worth having?

without having the ability to upload multiple waypoints, not really. It's VERY cool and works great with minimal effort though. :up:

I was wondering how I could go about having 2 different maps. I would like to use 1 for member location and 1 for store locations. Is it possible?

TIA!

nice feature btw

ok.... so i've been reading and reading on this darn map and how to get the marker to show up. I have checked and rechecked all the settings and still, no marker.
when i first installed this, the marker appeared, but since then, i get nothing.........

also, is it possible to let the admin or a staff member be able to add more than 1 marker???

any help is appreciated

Serenity, do you have the Highslide Image modification installed as well?

Hi Elenna,
no, i didn't even know what that was at first so i had to search it.

anyway,

what i have installed is the map, MGC chatbox, and vbadvanced.

all my markers disappeared. any ideas?
