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


Special Xbox Live version

I was already testing that. But stil thanks

The htmlspecialchars is not enough. Problem starts with the creation parsing of the markers.xml clientside. There are some characters that make the XML parsing go bananas.

DB insert/update is never the issue.

Version 1.0.2 will be released later tonight. I added more characters to the list to filter out before creating the xml file.

I found a little bug using Safari, so I'm not sure if it affects other browsers...

How to reproduce:
1. Click on a marker to open the balloon.
2. Without closing the balloon, click anywhere else on the map.

On Safari (not sure with other browsers), the map completely disappears, and the latitude/longitude fields show 'NaN' (I assume for 'not a number').

I wonder if you could add some code to handle this situation... like maybe force the balloon close before updating the latitude/longitude?

Otherwise this is great stuff... my users are loving it so far.

For a little performance boost, in VBGooglemap.php you should replace all:

PHP Code:
$db->query
with

PHP Code:
$db->query_write

stonyarc: Please make sure to use query_read and query_write where they are needed

Well, I found a little different bug using IE 6.0.2800.1106 on Windows 2000.

I attached a screenshot of what the balloon pop-up is doing. However, it doesn't have the same 'NaN' bug I reported with Safari... it 'does' close the bubble and update the map.

Once again, thanks for the great extension.

Awesome! Perfect fix. This is so cool.

Now, is there a way to color code more groups? Right now you just do moderator (which you include admins in) and member. Can we add something so we can assign images or colors to all our groups?

I added "assign images or colors to all groups in admin CP" to the roadmap for 1.0.3
