This is an elementary question but I still haven't understood how this mod works yet.
Does a visitor/member of my forums have to signup/join/enter his/her location to then have the marker auto or manually approved before a pin/marker will show up on the map? If no one signed up with their info would the map be blank?

TIA

ethank 01-22-2007 05:50 AM
I installed this on 3.6.4, but not markers show. The XML file is updated, but the "loading" AJAX thing never indicates loading. When I go to edit my location, the pin shows.

http://www.murmurs.com/forum/vbgooglemapme.php

Any ideas?

photofreeway 01-23-2007 07:20 PM
This is all I get...
http://www.photofreeway.com/board/vbgooglemapme.php

Thanks, this modification looks great.

OK, this is working pretty well in test for us on vB 3.6.4 (Apache2/PHP5/MySQL5/Linux). We have these exceptions:
- Picture display comes and goes. Sometimes scrolling the map helps?
- Some members don't see the pins or links above the on map certain computers.

My advice to those having complete problems (no display) is: recapitulate the install and make sure the cron task is working. That advice may be worth nothing. I can't support the add-on for you any further. As always, the more details you post, the more likely you are to get help. If it was me, I'd post: O/S, vB & add-on versions plus file locations uploaded, plus cron task log.

UM, anyway...

I was sorry to see Stonyarc gave up the avatar load for the pictures, though I could guess why. We have a PG-rated board and like to keep some control on the picture displays. Consequently, I hacked together the script below to ensure that the avatar pic is what is displayed for the vbgooglemapme pin image.

This might only work if you have set your avatars to be stored in your database as opposed to your filesystem. If you don't understand what that is, or the issues surrounding that choice, go to the vBulletin documentation and look it up before you go on.

OTOH, if someone can tell me I'm wrong about that, then, please hip me to the Truth!

Here's the script - you could destroy your database, so don't use it or my instructions unless you know what is happening in the code and take full responsibility for the consequences yourself!!!

Name it something like vbgooglemapme_avatars.php
Upload it to <your forum directory>/includes/cron

Once you've done that, you can set it up to test via a scheduled task, like the thumbnail below. If you set it up this way it will be disabled for schedules, but you can run it on demand for a test.

Now use the Scheduled Task Manager [Run Now] function in your admincp to run this task (because you assumed responsibilty, remember!!!). If you want to see whether it worked, run a sql query like this in your admincp sql query tool:

Code:
SELECT userid,pimage FROM googlemapme ORDER BY userid asc
You should see a list of userids and standard avatar URLs in the result. Of course, if you screw up the query you might have no database left.

If you like what you see, go back to the task in the scheduled task manager and enable it, but change the time you run it to the minute or more before you run Stonyarc's scheduled task.

To be clear again: You can wreck things playing around at this level. If you do, its YOUR fault. My code is NOT authorized by Stonyarc and frankly, I expect him to delete this post when he/she returns. For those who have the skills to deal with this, I hope this helps you. I've been helped so much be vb.org over the years.

Hi,

hello and thanks for the support on this. Question: When you say "recapitulate the install" can you define what this means. sorry still kinda new with VB....

This is the error I get at the bottom of IE.

How i can fix the Problem with the Task manager?

"Cannot modify header information - headers already sent by...."

ccunnin71 01-30-2007 12:27 PM
This system is pretty cool! I have it working on my board but like many users I have seen in the post history I to suffer the following error...

Quote:
Warning: Cannot modify header information - headers already sent by (output started at .../forums/cron.php:59) in /includes/cron/vbgooglemapme_cron.php on line 20
Has anyone resolved this problem? It is hit or miss when it shows up. :(

Otherwise very good mod!

Hi,

No Elements available

I really like this mod and want it to work on my site so please if someone can help me out I'd appreciate it.

Thanks

Getting red X's and the markers don't show up. Image folder is posted correctly. Help thanks!

To which folder must the File "vbgooglemapme deutsch.xml" copied? It seems no valid Plugin-File, because I get the an Error on import.

My map has stopped working. Google is saying the key is wrong:

http://forums.finalgear.com/vbgooglemapme.php

But it isn't. I just generated it again and pasted it in and it still doesn't work.

bluechris 02-13-2007 05:28 PM
Hi guys, after long watching why the markers doesnt show i went to conclusion that something is affecting the page to show the markers.
So i tried to remove things from the page and finally i managed to Show the map correctly including the markers and all the rest info.
The thing i did is going to my templates and i edited the VBGOOGLEMAPME template by removing the $footer in the end of the file.

I still doesnt know why the footer does the tricks (i try now to remove elements from footer) to the Addon but honestly im damn happy that all working fine.. i suppose some hack or addon interfears with the API or something simillar.

The same trick for me worked for the HotSpot Edition also and the only problem i have now in both addons is the if you add Greek things in your Entry they show in the map as Japanese... well i suppose i can leave with this for a bit of time.

I hope i helped some people.

No elements available is Default for no entries. You need to add at least one entry on the map itself before that field will show anything. Example: Go to the map on the site itself & click your entry to add the required information so you can go back into the Admincp Me full view as well as the unapproved view. Once you have entered the info you can go into to those particular fields in the Admincp.

Dam Im a truck driver, I think I should go back to college. :p

Good Luck !!!

I've notice alot of folks here having trouble with installs from several months ago. Here is the key, Save your Templates as a text file encase you screw-up. I've saved every single template I've customized in a text file into a Back up template folder. Common Sense.

I have no issues what soever but I would like to Link to posts with map by using the : $post[findme] code but I've entered this into every single field in the postbit_legacy. :confused: Maybe someone can help me with the easy stuff as I only understand who to do the hard stuff. lmao !!!

God Bless !!!

basilrath 02-21-2007 12:15 PM
just a quick answer the no entries are showing set the entries to be

"Auto approve additions to the map (handle with care). Don't forget to allow usergroups to add, edit or delete items in the usergroup manager"

in your admin cp

this allows entries to be posted or added as they obviously wont show in the map until approved manually by yourself as Super Admin

ive only posted this a lot of people using this hack moan about about the entries not showing straight away without checking the me user settings in cp.

Why do I bother asking when its about 99.9% user error. :( Well I changed the & sign to $ sign (Correct sign) in the Post Bit Template.....Post Bit (Template)

I've added this in the !-- user info -- Section under :

if condition="$post['rank']"div class="smallfont"$post[rank]/div/ifbr$post[findme]/B/br

Hope this helps...

You need to assign a color for each usergroup to get them to display in the legend.

On another note, none of my markers are showing on the map. It seems the map isn't assigning the colors like the legend. My map is looking for the file mm_20_.png

Any help? TIA

Ignicoccus 02-24-2007 08:42 AM
I am using vbgooglemap ME on my board for about 4 month now. Everything worked fine, my useres love this mod. But now the map stopped displaying new entries. I have 317 entries in the admin cp (all approved) but the map only loads 273 markers.

I don't now where to look, any ideas ?

Thanks

MediaHound 02-24-2007 02:42 PM
Whats the deal with duplicates?
I'm going through my ME Full view list in the admin cp and I see some members have multiple entries.
My mapID's 69-72 all belong to the same username.
80 and 81 are the same guy
114 and 115 are the same guy
141 and 142 are the same guy - when this guy was doing his entry, he reported to me in an IM that he was getting an error message "missing text" - and I quote:
"( MARKER TEXT)(<URL INFO)??????I tried it but this info was needed." because he did not fill out the text and the image url information (although text is the only required of the two, I realize that), so I sent him back to the page to try again and I explained what that meant, what the text is for, etc.. - He went back and added the entry just fine the second attempt.

SO, I think this little bug might have something to do with people submitting their entry only to get an error message - the entry was recorded even though they are asked to try again and correct the errors. Although I am not 100% sure of this, it is only a hunch...

Only 1 marker shows for each person on the map, though. But I dont think there's a need for duplicates in the db! I think some code fix is in order...

Anyone care to take a stab at this?

ps I use V2.5.1 - if this was corrected in the latest version, I apologize, but I searched this thread and nobody has reported duplicates yet, so my guess is that it still persists regardless of version...

MediaHound 02-24-2007 02:50 PM
and by the way, my Me Full view report shows 143 entries under mapID, however my publicly viewable map shows Loaded: 137 of 137
So, the viewable map does not mind the duplicate entries, they only seem to clutter the db...
Just an fyi if this was not clear in my last post.
This bug may pose a data hygiene issue if these users go to edit their location and the script grabs one random entry for them if they have duplicates, it might cause some hair pulling if the map then goes and loads the wrong entry! I didnt pressure test that far into it nor look at the code, but hey who knows... it should be fixed.
cheers

Check out my posts above, look carefully at your list of entries in the admin cp - there may be duplicates. Count them and see if that makes up the difference in numbers.

I'll check this immediately

Ignicoccus 02-24-2007 03:24 PM
You are absolutly right, there are several double entries in "ME full view" !
I am using Version 2.5.2

MediaHound 02-24-2007 04:36 PM
Yep, its really not a big issue (yet). Let's see if we can get a fixed version whipped up though...
I think this mod is still being supported, right?

Good hack, thanks! :D

Alien 02-25-2007 07:26 AM
Have any of you noticed any sort of query problem on your showthread/postbit pages?

Especially when viewing pages with a significant amount of posts..

For example, go to a page that has like 15+ posts on it. Then, take note of how many queries you have on that page (you'll need microstats or something similar to view this). Then, go into your AdminCP and temporarily disable this hack. Then, go back and view the query count for the exact same thread you viewed earlier. Do you see a significant difference?

I tried this on several boards (one that had absolutely ZERO additional hacks on the entire site) and the queries were almost double. I can create this issue on any site, has this been brought up before?

All sites are running Googlemaps 2.5.2, and vBulletin 3.6.4.

Alien 02-25-2007 07:33 AM
Ah, I see I'm not the only one.. It runs a query on every post.. Since this was mentioned several months ago to be something fixed in an upcoming version, are we close to the release of this? Otherwise I guess I'll use that temporarily workaround that was posted..

I love this hack!
