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 !!!!!!!

All,

Can you send me your request ASAP so I can close the roadmap for the next version

[CodeRed]

can the map display height be adjusted as it stands now? if not, is that something that may be an option to add... not sure how feasible it is on your end.

thanks. love the mod no doubt

I had a tiny problem. When I change the date, it reverts back to the old date entry when go back to edit the details page again. The new date shows up in the popup bubble, but when I go to edit again, the old date shows up, so unless I change the date again, the old date will show up in the popup bubble.

It's a small issue. I'll correct it in the next release.

Having a small problem when ive been playing with it. If i have 2 markers added and then i add a 3rd marker when i list elements with no filters so i see all makers if i try to del the 3rd marker it will del the 2nd marker and not the 3rd marker. Tried it a few times and keep getting the same thing, thought at first i was just clicking the wrong one on the list but seems to del the older markers on me and not the one i want deleted.

I can simulate it.

I'll check and release an update with these 2 fixes ASAP.
