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

I dont now who is the prob..

the Server can not be to smal..

The DB use Quad-Xenon-Server mit 8 GB RAM.
Serverload in smaler 3
in moment we have only a litle bit Users online...

your Hack is realy great an I and my Users realy love him.

im realy lucky if you can help me...

Sorry for my broken english..

I think it's the flashlink thing.

As the googlemap also uses a window.onload script there must be a conflict.

Corrected for the next version

Great improvements !!

The post[findme] into the postbit should only show up, if the user has added something to vbgooglemapme.

THX for help

It works!!!!

I Love this Hack!!!!

stonyarc · #**1170** 05-14-2006, 08:56 PM

I think I have a solution for the queries.

I'm going to use the scheduled tasks available in vbulletin.

That will reduce the queries to normally 7 in total.

If scheduled once an hour to update to the last info that should be enough.

I can also trigger it on insert or on update so that almost always the latest information is displayed.

However the online status will no longer be available. Vbulletin has enough places where that can be handled.

Are there any other things that do javascript loads. It forces the map in an endless loop.

/edit

I still see this !!!!!

It's not only the call that needs to go but also the whole listener

Code:

<script language="JavaScript1.2" type="text/javascript">
/***********************************************
* Flashing Link Script- ? Dynamic Drive (www.dynamicdrive.com)
* This notice must stay intact for use
* Visit http://www.dynamicdrive.com/ for full source code
***********************************************/
var flashlinks=new Array()
function changelinkcolor(){
for (i=0; i< flashlinks.length; i++){
.......
}
}
setInterval("changelinkcolor()", 1000)
}
if (window.addEventListener)
window.addEventListener("load", init, false)
else if (window.attachEvent)
window.attachEvent("onload", init)
else if (document.all)
window.onload=init
</script> <script type="text/javascript"> <!--
function log_out()
{
ht = document.getElementsByTagName("html");
ht[0].style.filter = "progid:DXImageTransform.Microsoft.BasicImage(grayscale=1)";
if (confirm('M?chtest du dich wirklich abmelden?'))
{
return true;
}
else
{
ht[0].style.filter = "";
return false;
}
}
//--> </script>
