I've mentioned this on last page.

No idea so far. But I'm sure there must to be a way to include a string just at the beginning of this BBCode to unparse the links. I'm just trying to figure out each one. :confused:

Hallo please Help me i habe problem the google map

Error Message:

Wrong map URL, edit the post to change it.

Reload the page when finished to check if correct.

I have found another quirk that your users need to be aware of....

If they are using the enhanced WYSIWYG post editor this will automatically parse the links in the Google iframe code to include [noparse][URL][/URL][noparse] tags, this breaks the bbcode.

They need to change to the standard editor

Unfortunately I do not understand exactly what you mean because I can not so good English would be better for me, you can deuzsch Maybe it somewhat easier to explain.

Would be great thank you

This is exactly what I tried to describe. The point is using the standar editor really sucks and switching from standard do enhanced WYSIWYG also. The only "solution" I've found at this moment is never use quick reply editor, always Go Advanced, past Google link, select it all, click on Remove Links and after that use Google Maps BBcode.

If we had a string before this BBcode to remove the links from it would solve this issue at all.

Vb doesn't just add [url .. etc to the map code, it also re-arranges the parameters inside the <iframe..> block. I'm afraid I've had to give up on this one unless someone knows how to fix it - disabling the WYSIWYG editor or the automatic link parsing isn't an option for our users

That's correct. The editor parses [B] [U] [COLOR] and [URL] in case of Google maps links.

I've been playing here with intructions like stripe_tags and urlrx but I'm not a coder but I'm sure it can be possible. I'm sure someone here will come up with something for this.

None has a solution for the problem?

Because one knows another similar addon BBCode?

About an answer I would be very happy!
Thank you in advance for the sometimes painful.

I'm going to test it when I have a time slot...
I'll try to fix it, it seems possible...

Thanks all for testing

Thanks oasi for that. My comments here were given just with good intetions to improve this BBCode. I've been looking for this for so long and never found a easy and good solution as this one. Like I told before with this fix will be one of the best BBCodes ever publish here and will be MOTM for sure. :up:

I'm not been able to reproduce the link stuff you mentioned, but This version could solve this stuff and the related with the &amp;

Please, try it and let me know...

If this fails, and the error message appears, please view source on the document and paste here the value for the variable tot_ini ( Right click on document, View source, search tot_ini)

Thanks

Hi oasi,

Nothing changed so far, let's see.

This is the link I'm using for tests already with gmap tags

[gmap]<iframe width="425" height="350" frameborder="0" scrolling="no" marginheight="0" marginwidth="0" src="http://maps.google.com/maps?f=q&amp;hl=pt-BR&amp;q=Liberdade,+S%C3%A3o+Paulo+-+SP,+Brasil&amp;ie=UTF8&amp;cd=1&amp;geocode=FdJhm P4de304_Q&amp;ll=-23.558323,-46.62529&amp;spn=0.036583,0.054932&amp;z=14&amp;iw loc=addr&amp;output=embed&amp;s=AARTsJrSb_gFa1Ssu_ 1wwOFTDbl5gJKezg"></iframe><br /><small><a href="http://maps.google.com/maps?f=q&amp;hl=pt-BR&amp;q=Liberdade,+S%C3%A3o+Paulo+-+SP,+Brasil&amp;ie=UTF8&amp;cd=1&amp;geocode=FdJhm P4de304_Q&amp;ll=-23.558323,-46.62529&amp;spn=0.036583,0.054932&amp;z=14&amp;iw loc=addr&amp;source=embed" style="color:#0000FF;text-align:left">Exibir mapa ampliado</a></small>[/gmap]


And this is the source code of my page after I post it.


The problem is I must use WYSIWYG editor on my board and when I paste the Google Maps links the editor parses a lot of thing with braking the pure link itself.

Subscribing to thread, this is a wonderful hack, hope the "Wrong map URL, edit the post to change it." errors get fixed as that's a problem for me as well.

First of all a big thank you to Oasi for studing on this very useful mod. I'm search for it for a long time!

I've tried to embed several Google maps without any problem but now I want to embed this kind of map , but I've had negative result.

This is the web page from where I have take the iframe link:

As you could see, it doesn't work.

Could you solve also this issue, please?

Thank you

Regards

Tintin

Ok, now I see the error :D

Please, test this code (this is going to fix the tintin74 problem too) and tell if it works to upgrade the "release"

The damn code BBCode don't seems to work... :mad:

<script type="text/javascript">
function checkURL()
{
if ((url.indexOf("http://")!=url.lastIndexOf("http://"))||url.lastIndexOf("http://")!=0){return false;}

if (url.indexOf("http://maps.google")!=0){return false;}
return true
}

tot='';
tot_ini="{param}";
tot_no_quo=tot_ini.replace(/&quot;/g,'"');
if(tot_no_quo.indexOf("[url=")>0)
{ tot=tot_no_quo.substr(tot_no_quo.indexOf('[url="')+6,tot_no_quo.length);}
else
{ tot=tot_no_quo.substr(tot_no_quo.indexOf('src="')+ 5,tot_no_quo.length);}
url=tot.substr(0,tot.indexOf('"'));
urlp=url.replace(/amp;/g,'');
url=urlp;

if (checkURL())

document.write('<iframe width="640" height="480" frameborder="0" scrolling="no" marginheight="0" marginwidth="0" src="'+url+'"></iframe>');
}
else

}
</script>

Yeeeeessss! Thank you very much , Oasi!

I get the "Wrong map URL, edit the post to change it." message with the 1.0 script, and nothing gets rendered with this one.

Please, could you paste the generated code for your page, as LeoBrazil did, or paste an example URL?

If I can see the value for the tot_ini variable I would be able to figure what's wrong...

With the new code I've got double error messages.

Here is what I've got from the source code. I'm still using the same link from Google maps for tests.

Leo

You have to set the option "Disable BB Code Within This BB Code" to yes when you add the gmap code...

I think the problem is that gmap takes as parameter {param} all the content you put between [gmap] and [/gmap], but if the url BBcode is also between [gmap] and [/gmap] other different {param} value is appeared and the gmap addon can't catch the value for the iframe, and the content appears 2 times, but without a valid value.

There is no workaround with this I fear ...

Despite of this, in my forums I use the WYSIWYG editor and I'm not having all these weird problems, I don't figure how this is happening if you verified those values

Use {option}: -> No
Remove Tag If Empty -> Yes
Disable BB Code Within This BB Code -> Yes
Disable Smilies Within This BB Code -> Yes
Disable Word Wrapping Within This BB Code ->Yes

100% sure this is correct and I'm using this in my test forum without plugins installed.


If try to post the Google link directly it gaves me an error, if I edit the post I can see what happens with the link. All tags were included in it as below. I wrapped with HTML tags otherwise the editor would parse the link and you woundn't get what really happens. Check the tags that appears on the Google Link.


That's exactly what I have here since the beginning.

I tought with Disable BB Code Within This BB Code -> Yes - I would never had what I'm getting on the example I gave above. You can still see com BB Codes on it. Weird huh ?

And these BBcode tags are added automatically??

Tomorrow I'll try to solve it. The solution is going to add extra+unuseful code to the html, but I think it can work...

Yes, did you notice those in the middle, right ?

They were placed there buy the editor automaticaly, just after I clicked preveiw post.

Weird ? Yes, but I found why. The link I'm using as an example I placed on Microsoft Word File because I use to keep a file on WORD of all mods I like and use just to make my life easier to organize and for upgrades, check diferences. Same as I did with yours, visually nothing chances but I think WORD uses weird HTML or something the scroll this up. I did that as I was using exactly the same link for several tests it's faster than going to Google and check for the same link all the time, you know.

But now I just copy/paste directly from Google and this was what I've got:

You'll see those between the link were gone but a lot of tags still remains the same and conparing the raw link with the this one those tags are causing this errors.

Sorry bugging you around with all those long posts I'm just trying to be usefull.

Ok,

I think this has to work...

Now I don't see the "wrong URL" error but see nothing displays. Nothing, no map nor error message.

Please, paste your tot_ini value here (view source for the page)...

Certainly!

Here is the code I used with [GMAP] tag:
And here the source code of my page after posted:

Thank you for this BB code. Works great

how do I use this? is there installation instructions somewhere?

Sorry but don't. I'm still getting the wrong URL and also all my previous posts that were working got the same wrong messages.

But worry, I wrote a very detailed instructions to my members and the first code published here is working fine with them. Just a pain to switch editor mode to do it but it's fine.

Tks.

itried the above mentioned and i got the following error!

any clues?

Ooooohhh!!

Finally I've been able to reproduce this!!
I'm using the advanced Browser Firefox, so despite of using the WYSIWYG editor I wasn't having this problem...

Now I've been testing and I'm have a solution, I have to do some more testing, but tomorrow I'll post the new version.

Thanks all for your patience :D

That's correct oasi, my bad in not informing you about it. But it only happens if you're using IE.

Not at all, thank you for your patience and support.

@oasi : take your time, we can wait! :)

Thanks so much!

i seee........ok oasi hope you can fix it:) waiting for your updated xml file:)

Ok, I upgraded the code (first post on each page).
Please, test it and tell me if it works now...

I've tested on Explorer and Firefox and seems to run for me...

Please, mark as installed if you use it...

It still does not work with my board :(

The maps link:
And the page source code:
Please help us look into it to see what's possibly wrong.

Thankssss!

I don't know why your gmap pasted code isn't chaged to html chars...

" should be &quot;
< should ve &lt;

An easy "fix" would be to change this line in the code:

t_i="{param}";

to

t_i='{param}';

But if could fail if there is some ' char into the code of the map...

Try it...

Oh, I tried with what you suggested and it works now.

So at least it works for my system. But as your concern, it might not be stable. Please help me to find what could be the reason that let my system not identical with yours.

Thanks so much!

It' works great for me now !!

Thank you oasi, MOTM for sure.
