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.

Special

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

For those who are still having issues with the markers / pins showing up, I figured out what the cause was. I had a script within my footer that displayed ads. One of the ads was googleadsense. I don't know if it was the ad display script or the google adsense script that made my markers disappear, but removed the $footer from the VBGOOGLEMAPME template, and pasted the code from the footer template in there instead and just removed the ad script/adsense script and my markers are back!

It works fine on VB 3.8.5 and 3.8.6PL1. If you have issues with the markers showing, look into other scripts in the header or footer that are interfering, probably google adsense.

Wird es für VB 4.x mal eine Version geben oder ist das Projekt tot?

I have it working on 4.1 But there could be major issues installing it that i have no idea how to fix.

If mine ever quits i guess i'll have to just uninstall it.

[vsforums]

Anyone any idea how to get this fixed?
"The Vbgooglemap Member Edition is currently not available please check again later." I have reinstalled the pluggin but still nothing. It is enabled, so that's not the case. It used to work, but all the sudden stopped.
