Integrating Google Maps Plugin

Great.

I tried to customize the detail.thtml file but I see the mosmap code

I verified :
 

• the mambot is processing
• the googlemaps mambot running after the jReviews one
• the click2search feature from the lat/long fields is disable

 

Do you have an idea ?

[Alejandro]

I just tested putting this in my detail.thtml view file and it works perfect: {loadposition user1} the modules in user1 position appear in the page. So plugins do work with the detail view.

Have you tried just putting the mosmap code without using custom fields, but instead hardcoding the value of the fields? How do you know the mambot is processing?

[jmb]

The mambot is processing ... because if I hardcode the value, the map is OK 

But if I put :
{mosmap width='350'|height='250'|lat='{jr_ylat}'|lon='{jr_xlong}'| zoom='20'| zoomType='Small'|zoomNew='0'|mapType='Satellite'| showMaptype='0'|overview='0'}

it appears :

'|lon='{jr_xlong}'| zoom='20'| zoomType='Small'|zoomNew='0'|mapType='Satellite'| showMaptype='0'|overview='0'}

[Alejandro]

Well, of course, you are not reading the instructions at the top of the view file 

Try this:

Code:

{mosmap width='350'|height='250'|lat='<?php echo $CustomFields->field('jr_ylat',$listing);?>'|lon='<?php echo $CustomFields->field('jr_xlong',$listing);?>'| zoom='20'| zoomType='Small'|zoomNew='0'|mapType='Satellite'| showMaptype='0'|overview='0'}

[jmb]

YES !!!   

I read the instructions ... but I didn't understand. Sorry, I'm a newbie with Joomla/JR and my english not really top.

Thanks a lot.

Have a good day.

I used to be able to put this code into my details listing and pull maps on the fly

{mosmap address='<patTemplate:var name="jr_address" modifier="strip_tags" modifierType="php />'}

Is this not possible anymore?

[Alejandro]

Instead of:

Code:

<patTemplate:var name="jr_address" modifier="strip_tags" modifierType="php />

You now need to write:

Code:

<?php echo $CustomFields->field('jr_address',$listing,false);?>

The 3rd parameter in the function (false) turns off the click2search in case it's enabled. It's the equivalent of the strip_tags modifier .

This worked great.

Problem was with my code editor.

Thanks for the help.

i need  little help plz. having probs to insert second value in this line:

jr_plzort = 31134 Hildesheim
jr_strassehausnummer = Hohnsen 28

but how do i insert second value with street and number?

i read hole forum, but didnt find the answer...

or am i totally wrong with this code?

J1.54, latest jreviews, latest googlemap plugin.

[Alejandro]

Code:

{mosmap address='<?php echo $CustomFields->field('jr_plzort',$listing);?> <?php echo $CustomFields->field('jr_strassehausnummer',$listing);?>'}

You just need to repeat the code as many times as you want for as many fields as you want.

super, this does it! THX!

Has anyone had an issues using a code enabled field with a <br> like so:

10 NW 12th Ave.<br>Portland, OR 97209

When I do so it doesn't use the city, state, zip portion as expected. If I change it to so:

10 NW 12th Ave.,Portland, OR 97209

Everything works fine.

I am going wrong somewhere.

I have google maps plugin published

In detail.thhtml I have custom fields and the following in the same page

{mosmap width='350'|height='250'|lat='<?php echo $CustomFields->field('JR_COUNTY',$listing);?>'|lon='<?php echo $CustomFields->field('JR_POSTCODE',$listing);?>'| zoom='20'| zoomType='Small'|zoomNew='0'|mapType='Satellite'| showMaptype='0'|overview='0'}   

The map shows up but it shows what I think is the default lon and lat, somewhere in the netherlands I think

Any ideas?

[Alejandro]

The first thing you need to do to troubleshoot this is to put the custom field code outside the plugin code to check what is actually being output. So this for example:

Code:

<?php echo $CustomFields->field('jr_postcode',$listing);?>

I think the problem might be the field names need to be lower case. Also make sure click2search is disabled.

[tenaki]

Not sure why but cap letters in the above doesn't work. I loose all field groups.

When I put the above code in using lowercase the custom field shows up fine

In the google map however, lowercase gives me a blank screen so I have to use caps?

Whatever way though, I only get a place somewhere in the Netherlands
