INSTALL

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

stonyarc,

Have you looked into why this hack stops working when you have vbpager installed as well???

My ballons don't show up, and the map just recenters. I disable vbpager, and it works fine.. So somehow vbpager and this hack aren't gettin along..

Any quick fixes?? <pls>

EDIT: It's only in IE.. Firefox works fine..

Ok, as a temp fix for the conflict with vb Pager and this hack, go to the template "vbgooglemap" and remove

Code:
$footer
Now this WILL kill the footer, AND the pager for that page. However this will allow you to have both working until this is resolved..

That should normally no longer be a problem in the new version.

The issues with named maps should be ok too

I would like to use the VBGooglemap for another purpose. Instead of using members I have been altering the db table to hold specific locations. I can input a users location on the map (then accessing the underlying database table I change the user ID to -1). This way I can add several locations.

I can link the records back to an entry I have placed in my vbLinks db but is there a way to hyperlink from the vbLinks entry to the location on the map? If this could be done - then brilliant - just what I want.

Also the hyperlink I create back to the vblinks entry has to have the number of the Link entry - is there a way round this.

Keep up the excellent work!!!

All,

I have a screenshot for you all (see attachment)

other status
- member.php link with correct userid => fixed
- on the fly update when inserting or updating (known as the cache issue) => fixed in both IE and firefox
- display of images in the balloon => fixed
- css support for the balloon => fixed

I'm also proud to announce that I'll be releasing a hotspot version of googlemaps for vbulletin. That one will be created as soon as the upgrade to 2.0.0 of the core engine is complete.

Have you seen this at all? http://www.radiogodsforum.com/forum/index.php?act=gmap it is obiously on invision boards but they are using links that allow members to place your exact address in and get the long/;at and fill them in without having to scroll to your location.


Link to Mod: D21-Google Member Map http://mods.invisionize.com/db/index.php?f=5329

Link they are using to get your exact location:
http://www.maporama.com

Maybe this could help you out.
