I will check that out too, Thank you.

I just changed that code to your new code, then re-uploaded that file and I'm still having the same problem.

Do I need to change anything else before your new code will take effect, or is uploading the changed file all I need to do?

Thanks again. :)

That is it... I would also check all of your "old" members PIMIDs to make sure someone didn't "update" their pin with something that broke the code...

As much as I hate to admit it.... your last post has me lost. Could you explain in a bit more detail what this means, please? (sorry for being stupid :o)

What is a PMID?


Thanks again for all your time and help. :)

I'm sorry, was thinking of a different plugin. I would check anyone who has a pin to make sure they don't have any weird characters in their pin text or PIMAGE. Even someone who has had a pin up for a while may have recently updated their info and screwed it up...

After updating the code and still having the same problem I decided to walk away from it for a while. However, I just checked it again and it seems to be working now. I have no idea why it wasn't working earlier but I have my fingers crossed it will be fine now. Is it possible that the scheduled "cron" task had to re-update before the change took effect?

Either way..... it works now!

Thanks again. :)

Glad you got it working!

I cant see the pins on the map i have triple checked the install and updated all user permissions in the settings & user groups.

I just saw that someone said there is a fix for this anyone have the post?

Any help would be great.

Thanks

Hello,

First of all, I would like to thank those of you here that have contributed answers and help to the less computer savy people like me.

On that note, I was wondering if anyone has figured out or knows how to fix the apostrophe issue that takes place as quoted above?


Thank you in advance :)

the markers won't show up neither for me.

Vb 3.8.1

Has anyone found the solution?

Marco

Working for me on 3.81 so I would guess you just have one of the known faults to do with an illegal image address or the use up a special character in an entry.

did you do anything or you just installed the normal package?

Marco

MagiKelly, what happens when there is an invalid image address or some special character in the text? Have you tried ZeroHour's fix in post #697? That's worked for me and for several otehr people.

Phaedrus, it's rather troubling that vB 3.8.1 seems to have broken vbGoogleMap for you. I think that you ought to try ZeroHour's aforementioned fix, because by coincidence, someone might have entered some bad text or a bad image URL at the time that you upgraded to 3.8.1.

Is anyone else here willing to tell us their experiences with vbGoogleMap on 3.8.0 or 3.8.1?

towermatt, the \' instead of ' is an artifact of the text handling that will be hard to fix short of a major rewrite of it, to do JavaScript escaping and HTMLizing properly. And BTW, I think that the position-input system also deserves rewriting. I'm fairly familiar with the Google Maps API, but not so familiar with PHP or vBulletin's API, so I could offer only a limited amount of help. And where has StonyArc been?

Thank you for that explanation....

Is there anyone else that might know a way to fix this apostrophe issue?



Thank you in advance. :)

it doesn't work at all:

http://www.passioneadueruote.it/forum/vbgooglemapme.php


edit.... i found the problem...it crashes with AME - The Automatic Media Embeder ... anyone knows why?

Marco

See my post here to explain the alteration I made

https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthrea...44#post1369344

Other than that I have done nothing as my problems were always to do with invalid image addresses. I do check every so often to make sure there are no special characters in any other fields but so far all has been fine.

I found my problem...is something with the AME product (The Automatic Media Embeder). If I disable it everything works fine.

Marco

I run both at the same time and it seems fine.

It's exactly the same for me. Thanks for the tip... but i need AME :(

Same for me :eek:

yup..ok...it's that for shure. If anyone can find the solution please tell us

marco

any idea?

Hello,

How can i install the German Language?

hello,
i have a few questions;)

1. where can i find the copyright in the files? i need to restyle it a bit so it fits better to my current style (i will not remove it or something else)

2. how can i install the german language file

and 3. in my navbar i have the link "Googlemap ME" and my question is how can i change the name of this link in Map or something else?

thanks a lot, and the mod is great and works perfect.

1. You can search for the copyright text in the files; I'm sure that it's hardcoded somewhere in them. If you can find it, you may be able to find what styling gets applied to it and change it.

2. I think that you can install the German-language file with the Language Manager. It's in Languages & Phrases in the AdminCP.

3. You change "Googlemap ME" to "Google Map" or "Map" in your template edits.

Run this Mod on vB 3.8.2 ?
Problem: Member with rights cannot change entry.

Ditto here! Working FINE on a clean, fresh install of 3.8.1! Thx to all for posted corrections i have yet to accomplish, what follows is my admittedly rather hastily compiled collection of READING NOTES (to make "heads or tails" out of @ own peril!): Stonyarc, thx for a great base concept which i plan on major modding to better suit my needs! If ya spent all yer time "supporting" endusers many of whom cannot even READ let alone CODE no new MODS would ever get written and we'd all be SOL!

This very long thread, as usual, was a nightmare to wade thru and while I did not find what I was looking for am still NOT SORRY INDEED!

updated to the 3.01 and now no parker shows up - whats the problem? please help me

thank you

See IMG MARKER FIX in the previous post. I had the same problem and it worked fine with me.

so does it work for 3.8.x ???

In my experience, it does. Some other people here report it working successfully in 3.8.x.

I installed it on 3.8.2 and it works :)


But i have one question...
We switched from SMF to vB and i wish to transfer the locations of all users to this map. I tried to enter the data into the markers.xml, but this didn?t work (it showed on the startpage of the map the correct count, but the users did not show up in the list or on the map.

The problem is that markers.xml is an intermediate file that is composed from the contents of a table in the board's database file: googlemapme

If you can get direct access to the database, you may be able to bypass the manual-entry process or at least make it easier, though you'll have to know which vBulletin usernames correspond to which former SMF ones.

Short of that, you can ask everybody to re-enter their locations.


ETA: various bug fixes and feature additions by ZeroHour, Falcon Capt, and myself:

ZeroHour: marker-display fix
Keeps info-balloon text from causing XML-parsing errors and aborting the marker display if it contains certain characters

Me: several
Me: markers
Me: terrain display
Me: marker positions
Mouse-over showing username when info balloon is absent
Mousewheel zooming
Marker in location editor becomes vbGM red marker
Marker position in map fixed; it "points" to the right place
Added the option to show the terrain maps
Centers image in info balloon and imposes maximum size

Control of info balloon:
Admin CP > Vbgooglemap ME > ME Settings > Enable the mouseover support on the markers?
Set to No

Falcon Capt: position and zoom as URL args
Changed $HTTP_GET_VARS(...) to $_GET(...)

Oh, anybody has a clue why the content ist stored doubled?

I thought they would store it just in the file....

That database table is the primary storage for the map data. The file markers.xml is for the downloaded map page to read with AJAX -- it can't read the database directly.

can't get markers to show, tried the fix found here

https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showpost....&postcount=697

but still nothing

but also i dont find anything in the task related to the maps to be able to update it

anyone?

nevermind for some reason after uninstallign and reinstalling it worked

I?m very interested in this addon but it doesn?t work the markers on my forum (v3.8.3), even modifying the ZeroHour marker-display fix :(

Any solution to that?

Thanks

EDIT: Finally works well on 3.8.3 with the files modifications. The problem was the AME addon (I´ve replaced for Passive Video).
