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

This is the port of the VB 3.5.X version (https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthread.php?t=114149)

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 !!!!!!!

In User Listing & Profile Viewing option all the Member List Field Options (check box).

same Prob, but only if the vbgooglemapmember edition xml files in the includes/xml dir.
Anyway the same prob.

I think, that both Hack in 3.6 are chrashed.

[Hunne]

doesn't work with 3.6.0.

MySQL Error : Unknown column 'phrasegroup_vbgooglemaphsecp' in 'field list'
Error Number : 1054

Help!!!

[Ncturnal]

It's working without any problems for me on vB 3.6.0.

[Hunne]

Ah I just figured out what to do. I had to install the member-edition first.
Great work!

[y2krazy]

Working good here, just a minor hitch I noticed (see attached screenshots). Doesn't display a title in IE or anything for the navbit.

[Troy Roberts]

Can you set an expiration date on them? That would be helpful for events. After the event is over the pin goes away.

[y2krazy]

I would definately like to see that, Troy.

[JimLink]

I dont get it... Everything shows up but the ACP menu items... and that crazy link y2Krazy points out above... I would be happy if the ACP links showed up though.

[JimLink]

Ok I must have missed the part about supporting only those that clicked install. I have clicked install... But I have yet to figure out why the menu optiions do not appear in the ACP.
