VBGooglemap Hotspot Edition 1.0.4
I'm proud to announce that the Hotspot Edition is currently available to you all !!!

Function
The vbgooglemap Hotspot Edition is a design from StonyArc (http://www.stonyarc.com). It allows you to create and maintain a whole range of elements like landmarks, places to visit or even people. The application is fully manageable from the control panels. Each specific category can have a specific colour code. The configuration is done by the administrator. He or she can edit/approve/add catogories name it, it's there.
Clicking on a marker will open a small balloon with some essential elements for that spot and an image in the second tab. For each marker on the map there is also a full details page including support for the vbulletin full editor (wysiwyg) so additional information and images can be added.

Use the menus to navigate through all the functions.

Vbgooglemap Hotspot Edition is ideal for handling landmarks, travel, events or even giving your users their own page.


Don't forget to hit install !!!!!!!

You need to install both with all files as instructed in the guides if you want to run both.

This thread is for the hotspot edition.

Please upload all files again, uninstall the product and reinstall.

If you're looking for support on the ME please move to that thread.

Also make sure you download the latest versions now online.

Hope this helps.

Hi..

Is there anyway that this can be incorperated into the member edition this way there would be no need for 2 seperate maps?

[stonyarc]

I know there is demand for it but on bigboards this is creating a ubercluttered map that won't serve its purpose anymore.

Maybe I should release a combo version for small boards.

the only issue that i have with my installation, is that some of he images are not present,

I think you posted in the wrong thread. I see you have the member edition.

Don't forget to select the approve settings. I see a black marker on there

All,

Roadmap time.

Please PM me all your feature requests for the Hotspot Edition

[MagiKelly]

I would like to see the option to set the controls so that members could edit their own elements only.
