INSTALL

HOTSPOT EDITION AVAILABLE ON : https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthread.php?t=114149
Detailed installation instructions and screenshots in the included pdf file.

Current Features



NOTE:
VBGooglemap 3.0.0 contains the vulnerability fix. Please upgrade immediately. Version 3.0.0. also contains all features from 2.5.X

As always you use modifications at your own risk.

VBGooglemap Member Edition 2.5.1 brings you a lot of new features. It?s vital that you uninstall any previous version before upgrading/installing version 2.5.1.

Upgrading from version 2.5.0 is easier. Instruction are available in the guide.

As the uninstall function will not remove your googlemap data in the database but only the templates and files you can safely remove an older version. As a precaution you should always take a backup. This should be done on each major change you make to your bulletin board.

IF YOU ARE RUNNING VERSION 1.0.3, 2.0.X AND YOU CHANGED TEXT DIRECTLY IN THE TEMPLATES YOU NEED TO SAVE YOUR CHANGES AS VERSION 2.5.0 REQUIRES YOU TO UINSTALL PREVIOUS VERSIONS.

This has taken quite some work and still will take a lot more. Please give credit where credit is due. You cannot remove any notice without prior written permission.

Changes in this version

SEE FIRST POST FOR FULL ROADMAP AND HISTORY

Planned Features
- TBD

Volume warning

high volume of users may slow down the load. Currently a load counter is included.

Languages

Thanks to Wachtmeister there is a German translation available to you all. Feel free to use it.

The translation will be updated on each new version.

Special

- Read the attached PDF for more information. The pdf is also included in the zip file.
- You'll need a googlemap key for your domain. Get your own key for your domain view http://www.google.com/apis/maps/signup.html for more information.
A googlemap key is only valid for a specific domain. You'll need a specific google account to create one.
All is explained on the googlemap link indicated above.
- Set the file permissions on the marker.xml file to 777
- The googlemap script can handle non-registered users. They will only see the main map and won't be able to enter information. This is reserved for logged in users (detected automatically)
- usergroup permissions are available in the backend
- To change location just drag the map while holding the left mouse key or by using the zoom and key functions on the left
- First time loading of the map may take a few seconds longer because of Google API hosting

Fix for no markers shown:

Edit:

/includes/functions_vbgooglemapme.php:

Goto line 49 which should start:

PHP Code:

$text_file .= "<marker mapid=" 


Replace that line with:

PHP Code:

$text_file .= "<marker mapid="". htmlspecialchars($get_xml_marker["mapid"]).""  title_map="".htmlspecialchars($get_xml_marker["title_map"])."" lng="".htmlspecialchars($get_xml_marker["lng"])."" lat="".htmlspecialchars($get_xml_marker["lat"])."" userid="".htmlspecialchars($get_xml_marker["userid"])."" username="".preg_replace("/\n|\r\n|\r/", "",nl2br(addslashes(htmlspecialchars(trim($get_xml_marker["username"])))))."" text_map="".preg_replace("/\n|\r\n|\r/", "", nl2br(addslashes(htmlspecialchars(trim($get_xml_marker["text_map"])))))."" type="".htmlspecialchars($gettype['googlemapmetype'])."" pimage="".htmlspecialchars($pimage)."" />\n"; 


/includes/cron/vbgooglemapme_cron.php:

Goto line 58 which should start:

PHP Code:

$text_file .= "<marker mapid=" 


Replace that line with:

PHP Code:

$text_file .= "<marker mapid="".htmlspecialchars($get_xml_marker["mapid"]).""  title_map="".htmlspecialchars($get_xml_marker["title_map"])."" lng="".htmlspecialchars($get_xml_marker["lng"])."" lat="".htmlspecialchars($get_xml_marker["lat"])."" userid="".htmlspecialchars($get_xml_marker["userid"])."" username="".preg_replace("/\n|\r\n|\r/", "",nl2br(addslashes(htmlspecialchars(trim($get_xml_marker["username"])))))."" text_map="".preg_replace("/\n|\r\n|\r/", "", nl2br(addslashes(htmlspecialchars(trim($get_xml_marker["text_map"])))))."" type="".htmlspecialchars($gettype['googlemapmetype'])."" pimage="".htmlspecialchars($pimage)."" />\n"; 


Run the scheduled task and your markers should return.
Basically I have modified the code to replace things like "&" with the xml safe "&" so no matter what anyone enters for the fields the xml should still be safe.

More tweaks to come including integration of the display groups being marker colour.

With this edit,

hi,
somehow the markers aren't shown in the main map and also if you click on list users, there are no markers shown on the map for the specific user.

VBGooglemap Member Edition has been broken for quite some time.
And apparently the modification author (stonyarc) has died

Jacquii.

[Datenpapst]

still using 3.6.6 buying my new licence next week.

[the2cv]

If you look, it say's stoneyarc last logged in on 10 May 2008.

[PoetJA-1975]

Who cares - he's not supporting a mod that he clearly marked as supported - so obviously he must be dead.

Jacquii.

Shame, it works to a fashion.

Just only 50% !

Good Onya mate. Works SWEET !!

Anyone following this upgrade, make sure you replace the ENTIRE line that this poster is referring to, not just the text they have indicated.

Do that and it works a treat !!
